Show a little respect!!!
« on: August 23, 2009, 06:47:53 PM »
I think we need to post a sign at our events that says " Race officials word is final!! Any heckling of the officials will result in your imidiate removal from the event,NO REFUNDS!!!."

These guys are out there volanteering their time. When races are close its hard to tell which machine crosses the line first. This is why there are 2 line judges so if one cant tell they can ask the other. Giving them hell because they dont give you a instant decision should result in a swift kick in the nuts!!!

Wow......didn't know that was going on today.  That can't be tolerated.  All it takes is one group of dipshits to screw things up.  So who was it?

There was a little bit of that going on today, especially during the first part of the event. I wasn't real happy about that. It will not be tolerated in the future. Also, we had a couple problems with guys tearin around back behind the pits and practicing starts and whatever, that is also going to get them shutdown in the future. We build the racetracks for a reason. And for those guys, and I think Moby would probably agree on this, if the insurance company who insured that event just happened to show up to watch and saw that going on, we would all be packing up and heading home without any racing being done because they will shut us down for that. Rules are rules, stick to them and noone will have problems so we can all continue to have fun.

There were people bitching about the line judges that weren't even at the finish line.  Some of those people that want to complain should really think about volentering at some events, because they sure seem to think that they can do a better job than the ones that are.

I wasnt going to say anything, but since i have been to every event and my wife and i have volunteered at every event here goes.First of all most of the guys tend to be pretty good as far as the racers but there are a few that have bitched at every event for the last 2 yrs but they have never volunteered at 1 .You would think since they know so much about how everything should be run they would help especially since they usually have people on the sidelines telling us who won .These same professionalls never seem to know what classes they signed up for as they always say they were supposed to be in a class they arent signed up for.Anyways its getting real old and if we dont have these volunteers helping these events will start to end pretty quick.Its pretty easy to say you can put on an event when you count on the volunteers to do all the work the day of the event but the peolple running it are not around to put up with all the complaints. AS FOR YANKTONS EVENT i was one of the line judges and the racers were bitching we werent holding up the win flags fast enough,last time i checked someone has to cross the finish line before they win,then we can put the flags up.ALSO the other line judge had a bunch of professionals behind him telling him who won so i dont think he wanted to call much of anything.

You and your wife are awesome and do a great job Mike......Sure makes things run smoother when people like you guys are helping out.  I'll be happy to volunteer to be a line judge if that seems to be where people are getting the most hassle from the dipshits.  Maybe next event if someone acts like a dumbass they need to be kicked out.  Makes the event no fun for the racers or spectators if that crap is going on.

 :D I like this idea. Can I be a line judge next time? lol

I also notice that it is usually some of the same people at each event. And I do think we need to start doing something about it. As for the missing classes and saying they should have been in a class, we have registration deadlines for a reason. If they cant figure it out within that time then they dont need to run the class they didn't sign up for. If its a situation where you have a couple of poor basterds that can barely see straight to drive but are still willing to come and may be a little late then I dont see a problem with signing them in a little late as long as they called ahead. Stumper, I appreciate the call Sun morning btw, thanks. 

As far as the volunteers go, we see the same ones at every event and if it wasnt for them we would have a lot more problems. So a huge thank you to those of you that volunteer and help out with these events. I greatly appreciate it. Danny, Mike, Michelle, if you guys need help in Wagner please let me know.

Reddodge was just in the office.....he volunteered his security services....I think thats a job he'd enjoy  :D   Maybe we should draft Kingrob into doing it as well......between the two of them I don't think I've come across bigger assholes in my life.  ;D
