DahMurf;
Almost every sport has a few of the people you describe-- probably even
cricket-- but in racing, I don't consider them to be "real racers", just
brats.

I can't speak for Bonneville as I've only been racing
at Maxton for the past couple years, but I have to add
an opposing view. I agree, real racers don't get
upset, they congratulate you, applaud you, encourage
you & help you. (Thats how Twin Jugs Racing operates)
I really dig that about LSR BUT there are a few that
don't work that way. There is a select little group
that not only targets certain records they target
certain individuals and take the whole record conquest
very personal. They don't help you, they send spies
over to find out what you're up to, they look for hand
outs, show up unprepared assuming they can beg &
borrow whatever they need & never offer to lend a
hand. But, the fun part is, we know who they are & it
just makes the accomplishment that much sweeter when
you know you've succeeded in obtaining your record and
it pisses them off! Don't kid yourself, they are out
there but fortunately for us there are very few of
them!
