Steve;you hit some kinda nail on the head,I think the problem is very few
are spending anything look at Jay and Brians car probably the fastest car in
the country, and got no offers @ $16000. wtf? I think it's off the market
now and they do plan on running this year.As far as the forum concept where
you can actually upload pictures,(worth a thousand words etc.creating
interest for those that are not involved but might like to,handy reference
to subject matter via search) I believe the sports racer forum and apex are
EXTREMELY well respected and read by people all over the world ,it is a
proven concept. btw ;what is so difficult about registering on
apex?

Subject: [F500] RE: F500 Digest-Opps for the future.
Eric, and others, I take issue with your nominations for the leadership,
Ie Walbran Novak and Clayton. Walbran may well take the class into the
areas where others can't afford it. If you dont know "Jack", then you
dont know that he has an annual racing budget that exceeds some incomes on
this page. Jack is a great guy, a very smart man but may not be as
sensitive to economic issues as some would like. Jay announced that
he/Brian were out of F5.- If he is done he's done. He has made
suggestions of a V twin powered car. Check out Jays other projects and
tell me if you think the rest of us would be on a level field if he got
involved in Vtwin cars. What about Mike Q? What about Mr Red Devil
Steve J? What about Marsh? Pic some from the non dissenting group.
Some of us joined F5 to race the cars as they are. If you want bike
motors and shocks then move to f1000. Its that simple.
You want to loose the 30 something Y/Os that remain class loyal, who love
two strokes and have invested heavily to join? If you want us to
leave-then keep telling us how bad the class is and implying that we are
waisting money on current technology.
In the meantime, while you angerly type, we tune, we smile and we ask our
friends to join us. They may well start racing too, as long as they dont
read this board of self loathing pessimist.
Go drive your car, you may remember how fun it is. Better Yet-Let a non F5
guy-(GT2) drive your car, he will come back and tell you how fast fun and
crazy it was.
If everyone on this board who suggested a change, would trailer their car
to the next race we would have less far less issues.
