forget it!
Carol I don’t always agree with you, but you sure nailed this one. As a lot of people know I’m from Ohio and raced there for many years and never seen a promotor so arrogant and self centered as this guy that we call a promotor here in Florida.( Again we all know who I’m talking about) . With the long racing season we have here in Florida, you would think that a couple tracks in South Florida could work out a schedule that would not divide the cars and fans, but give the owners, drivers, and fans a choice of what divisions, classes, or events that they wanted to watch or participate in. I just can’t figure out the mentality of this guy, a poor business man for sure and it seems to me he only cares about his own self righteousness and could care less about anything or anyone else. Not much I can do about it, except to make sure I never give him any of my money…This message is approved by me Chassisdude ( Rick)
Carol I finally agreed with you and you made a great post and then you edit it, shame on you girl, now no one even knows what I’m talking about…
not to worry!
Plant evil seeds havest evil fruit. He’ll get his…
and they blame us!
i deleted it because i felt it was a total waste of words. i was not just talking about a track owner but also a series owner… they do everything they can to make us miserable and when we finally get sick of their lousy lack of professionalism and poor sportsmanship they blame the message board posters for the state of Florida problems. we are the damn sport. who will drivers race for and who will support tracks if the fans find another way to spend their weekends? racers have to race. track owners need racers… I DONT! i do it because i love it but it is so corrupt i sometimes feel dirty doing so much to help promote it!
i am so happy we have bobby diehl in charlotte county. he has made some mistakes but in general and always giving it his best, i think he has integrity and a TRUE love of our sport… i love that he supports a man like DON REHM…(you will be very lucky if in life you get to meet a man like Don… he is a true gentleman trying to make things better…if he fails it will be partly our fault for not supporting what he is trying to do! i am NOT talking bad about anyone else…just good about a man who deserves it!..) like the Karts, the TQs, the OSS and many more. i love that he listens and takes some advice… i love that he doesnt waste time “getting even”…i love that he doesnt compromise his values…
and please remember that whatever i write are MY feelings and MY words. i speak for no one else affiliated with the radio stations or administration. i am really angry at what is happening here in florida … a few people have done all they can do to ruin it for thousands! sorry but thats how i feel. People who post on forums DO NOT ruin racing…MEDIA DO NOT ruin racing. they report the truth to people who would otherwise be in the dark… put the blame where it belongs… the promoters who ONLY CARE ABOUT THEMSELVES! (i am greatful for the ones who care about the drivers and the fans…) yes there are a few!

I gotta disagree with Carol here. The “media” does NOT always report the “truth.” The media (both the mainstream media and the racing media here in Florida) has agendas, friends, and foes. The tracks that purchase ad space naturally get more attention. The tracks that make it easier for the media to get access, or that provide info and photos to the media, get more attention. And some people in the media are very opinionated, and they use their websites, interview shows, and message boards, to promote their agendas and attempt to smear all others. Not naming any names here, but we all know quite well what the deal is and how it works. It’s not pretty, but that’s how it is.
The “media” does NOT always report the “truth.”
that’s a big 10-4 good buddy, c’mon back.
could somebody pm me exactly what is going on here? i can’t stand being on the outside of a crapstorm and not having any idea what’s going on.
