I didnt delete it....

Everyone is allowed to have an opinion, but no one is allowed to post unsubstantiated allegations of cheating, of favoritism and other inapropirate behavior by officials such as telling you something in private and something different in public, etc. That is why your recent post was edited Matt.

If someone has a suspicion but no proof and you think we should be paying special attention, tell me in private. If someone has proof, bring it. If I'm the problem, bring it to NASA HQ. Either way this is not the place for spreading rumors or slandering someone without substantiating the claim.

Cool, David, very cool. 8) 8) 8)

So Matt, what is the "statement" that Todd made at the Rookie day that set all this into motion? You keep refering to it, but i have no clue what it was. I wasnt there both days, so i could have easily missed it.

HEHE... so Glenn.. when you were a kid, did you go around poking things with sticks??

nuttin but lub...

sure David..
i really do what to know what was said. otherwise i feel the need to resolve an issue w/out knowing what the issue is.

i'm really not being a smart ass w/ this one. i just what to know what was said.
i would have like to get this from him via a phone call, but he will not talk to me.

I was just kidding around...

but on the serious side... let it go... there are some issues that cannot be resolved over the phone and especially over the forum... Matt and I have had a couple of very productive discussions when we met face to face. We both feel very much the same but his comments are more hardcore than mine. I'm trying VERY hard to stay out of the internet discussions because it made me physically ill after my rants a few months ago...

I love racing and I love the racers in this group. It has really hurt me to step back, but there are some principles involved that I'm not willing to concede....

Him not taking your calls ought to be a hint. Take it and stop already.

Both of you are showing your ass.

Actually, I will give Glenn "some" credit as he is actually taking a step to fix a problem I'm guessing he isn't fully up to speed on. I suppose Todd tried to understand it, and Al refuses to as he sees things only HIS way. he doesn't take criticism at all, and could care less what your view is. That is the main reason NO ONE in AI-TX wants him as their director regardless if the excuse is "nasatx budget cuts or streamlining by national"... or whichever excuse it is today... :roll: I realize they have bigger pictures to oversee nationally, but that is even more reason you DON'T want national directors to be your regional directors...ask an SCCA guy that question sometime.

Glenn, I hate to say it but you are wasting your time with me and at any attempt to try and change anything. Your point of a "transition period" is over is not accurate. I see the same crap today I saw in 2006, even worse in some areas because of the "bending or catering" of the rules. after Accepting and fostering mediocrity, there is no going back. If you want a humorous take on it, but fairly accurate as to where this country in general is going....watch the movie Idiocracy by Mike Judge. good stuff.

Everyone in this group is an adult, understood the rules and expectations of them as drivers before they became part of this group. "interpreting the rules" or making concessions to not hurt someone's feelings is just stupid reasoning. This group of racers has fun and parties together because of the PEOPLE WHO ARE IN THIS GROUP. Not because someone got a free pass or a director decided not to penalize them for a mistake per the rules. Personally, in my experience regionally, and especially nationally, it has been a detriment to moral because vocal people such as myself bitch about it publicly while the rest bitch about it in private and sour about creating more BS behind the scenes.

Transparency is good. Deleting posts, editing posts and ruling with an iron fist one minute and giving passes the next is just....well, dumb.

I'll remain to offer help to the group where I can, I'm just choosing not to support AL or Todd. As david said, there are some things people feel strongly about and you cannot change their minds.


Glenn, I'm still not talking to you though! :lol:
