Ok, looking back on my post, maybe it came across more like bashing the other club some but that wasn't my intention.
I'm sure 100% of you guys have more seat time then I and you may have more experience with other regions also. Just like anything else, I'm sure there's the good groups and not so good groups.
Personally as a newbie, Im glad Paul is double checking that everything is buttoned up under the hood before we go out. I know that my stuff is ready to go before I get out there but I dont know if the guy infront of me is.
Also, Myles going through the flags for the benefit of everyone's safety is a great thing. You never know, especially in the lower run groups that I'm currently in, if the people you are on the track with understand what they mean.
I think a safe attitude during DE events should filter down from the top. Instructors all the way down to newcomers. I'm glad I'm in one of the "good groups."
Darren, Todd and Brian: Thanks for the kind words about the car. About 95% of the compliments I receive about driving, is totally the car. I know this, my ego knows this also. Honestly, point the car where it needs to be, fire and hang on.
I know some people can get somewhat "territorial" when it comes to vehicle brands, clubs, etc. and it's good to know that there are some of you guys who could give a rats tucas about it.
To me, it's more about the people and you could be getting around Thunderbolt in a school bus for all I care, as long as it is safe and fast, it's ok by me.
See you all....not soon enough. Be safe.
