Growing up at Flemington Speedway booing was the norm, so was cheering. The place was packed and the fans were rabid. It doesnt make you a bad guy to boo, I'm not talking about over the top stuff but a couple boo's. Cheering for a crash is in bad taste, doesnt mean I havent been entertained highly by crash's including a couple of my own. If you race you should expect to crash and entertain people in the process, as long as everone walks away and no harm was intended. I might have cheered a crash, maybe two in my life. Occasionally somebody being a jerk will get what they deserve. I only wish I was good enuff to get a steady stream of boo's.
