BUT, I'm sorry, under the current circumstances, (that may never allow me to race again), it really ticks me off to hear whining from racers about "stuff ", STUFF that in the giant scheme of things is truly unimportant. Prepare your Hot Rod, select the races within your budget and time allotment, Go Racing and have fun! ... HAVE FUN ! ... It's your choice............( NMCA ...fish in a barrel ... ok .... can you swim Jimbo ...LOL ...)

OK, But! Wouldn't you have liked to have gone to BOTH races? If hey were on different dates you could have! That's my point. Why keep putting the races on the same date and make races have to chose between them? Jim
