OK,, I took the comment down, I said I wasn't here to get in a pissin contest and I'm not!! but you don't know anything about me or what racing experience I have in r\c or any other form of racing, so keep your comments and opinions on the topic at hand and off me,, and I will do the same, fair enough??
And I believe I did answer that question on the last page post #42
Adam.
I am not here to start a hot debate.. just want to make some comments.
I started racing cars when i was 7yrs old.. 1984.... went with cars and boats from about 11 or 12 1989 raced slot cars for 5 yrs.. ( international 15 and box stock ) so i like mike have seen the whole spectrum minus planes and trains.
EVERY.. and i mean EVERY type of event that deals with money will at one point or another get out of hand.. i have been to races that a guy intentionally took someone out.. not caring didn't care what happend to his boat.. just didn't want the other guy to win.
I seen a guy chuck his brand new mono inside his trailer because he got 2nd..
even seen a pro racer at a track in indy racing r.c. cars snap his car over his nee in 1/2 because he got t.q but placed 2nd in the main.
this and all of this was for either no money or very very little winnings..
So I very politely will disagree with you that it won't get out of hand.. Not say that you org won't be very sucessful.. but you may want to think about the reprocussions from such events at hand.
if a fight broke out and people got hert would your insurace company cover property damages if such thing occured..
Again, i am not trying to pick a fight.. Just want you to realize what this could and or possibly lead to.
good luck
