Topic: Why so much HATE from "real racers"
After cruising the Porsche "racer" forums....I found a thread about the rollover-fire at Sears Pointless.....of course the uniformed Porsche snobs are bashing Lemons like some type of demolition derby...and bash our "lack" of safety equipment....so the knowledgeable few attempt to educate the snobs by posting links to rules or even pics of our cars....just to get bashed even more by these "racers" that have NEVER even been to a Lemons race.....
Its bad enough that I'm already a black sheep in Porsche circles because of the 928....now I'm a double black sheep due to Lemons racing....
The funny part is................ I COULD CARE LESS.......I'm having too much fun racing with all of you....& my "racer" attitude is quickly disappearing.... Anyone with a car can show up at a Lemons event and be welcomed by EVERYONE....not a single person I talk too over the weekend bashes me or my car....everyone is always willing to help out and most would give the shirt off their back to help out a COMPETITOR.... like that will happen in "serious" Porsche club racing....
So I just had to finish my defense of Lemons against the haters with the following:
"Bottom line is this......Lemons Racing is the fastest growing form of motorsports today..... While club racing and most pro racing are hurting...Lemons is growing by leaps and bounds......"
