·As the "other" thread is now closed i have started this, soon to be closed i've no doubt, thread as i feel i need to reply.
Those 'handles' are probably generic ones bestowed by the forum to denote a certain number of posts. But you probably knew that.
Rubbish, you can change it'
Personally i am getting a little cheesed off reading comments moaning about the racing
Of course you are not. If you genuinely were you would simply skip over the 'offending' posts. Much better to read the posts and then moan back.
Are you psyschic? I do believe i have a right of reply
I had no idea slot racers were so elitist (well, the occasional BSCRA racer), but to so openly be so does the hobby no favours at all. The 'general public' (you can almost here a sneer in the other posts that use this term) are the very people we need. Given the number of clubs whinging/complaining/commenting (take your pick, but it all sounds like the first one regardless) that they could do with a few more members, money is tight etc, more respect is due those people.
Slot racers are not elitist and in know way did my comments imply this. Most of us started on the carpet and some of us chose to move on to another level of racing. I actively encourage home racers to attend our club and we have managed to get 3 new members. recently, not bad with my "Elitist" attitude.
I do not slag off digital racers, rivet counters or carpet/home racers but i don't see posts on this forum telling them how to run whatever they do.
