Putting the fun back in it...
My great nephew and neice get my race return cars... not all but most. They watch the race videos and I occasionally use their names as drivers. To me, they have at least as much fun watching those vids as I do and have a way better test track setup than I!

This is what this hobby is all about...not the I hate you because you are my competitor, you are cheating, all that other stuff. Thank you for posting this reminder for us (especially with all of the negativity this week). I am 100% guilty of letting it get to me and sadly I feel that was his goal in the first place. I am done with it. Thank you...thank you...thank you for this reset of the community. We needed it!
Cool stuff. The kids are having fun.
Finally, some good honest content in this sector of the forum boards. Thanks, StoopidFish!
this is what it's all about
the wwe/smack talk of the early years has run it's coarse, the sport (not hobby) has moved on
I am happy with the next generation of hosts and racers
lots of new blood, new tracks & new ideas.
I also think many of y'all would love the jousting, too, and the kids go nuts over it.
yea, I have built beautiful cars to smash, cause, if we are honest,
we did that too, as kids especially the cars that sucked (I blew them up, and set fire to them too, lol)
much like what can happen at freezie. didn't stop me from building a work of art.
Told CC, at least it would be the prettiest on the spike, lol
and now Dr is in the yellow snow from the gasser w/ dirt bike tires.
I want to win very much, but I am not emotionally attached so much (anymore)
Build to win to save your life, and when it's packed, all about prep and (lotsa) luck from there one,
just sit back, and enjoy the show, and know, you helped make the show what it is.
how can ya not laugh and see, well 12K people saw me suck, lol, but....none of them made a car, sent a car, etc...
usually, nor did they contribute either, if tips tricks or fellowship
I love this community and the positivity it encourages. Never change! (even Blueline!)

- indeed — GBURacing
- The "vitriol" I've seen lately seems to either be coming from one particular guy, or directed at that particular guy due to his lousy attitude. The builders with cars on my channel all are super cool! — HSLmotorsports
They look like they are having lots of fun.
