Convention Notes

Thanks to those who saw my comment for what it was, some great points were made.

No more the small one, the weak one, the frightened one.
Running from beatings, deflating.
I'm becoming more than a man. More than you ever were.
Driven and burning to rise beyond Jesus.
 
Lance, I may have taken what you said wrong and it needs to be understood that I appreciate the work that workers and offcials do. I appreciate it enough to Donate money for dinners at the yearly convention. I have bought equipment to make their jobs and lives easier. I know the workers in my region know me well enough to know that my comment about writing the checks was more a matter of disagreeing with the thought that anyone allows me to race. What I as a driver expect from any volunteer is that they are fair friendly and good stewards of our club and our finances. I will say that my experience has been that 99.5% of them have always been that way. Unfortunate that the .5% can really screw it up for the whole lot of us.I understand that the same can be said for drivers and I have had the pleasure of those people to either on the track or in the pits. I won't tolerate a driver with a shitty attitude at a race anymore than an official. So to those that took my comments wrong I appologize.

That I can agree with you about. Club racing has a very unique relationship between the club, the racers and the people behind the scenes that make it happen.
