I do apologize if somehow I've offended anyone. Someone else had suggested some sort of a forum to come up with a name to take some of the confusion surrounding the various groups who are making noble efforts at doing basically the same thing; provide an opportunity to race something approaching an Elite-level Midget race car, but in a more affordable platform. Sounded like fun. Thought I'd give it a shot. No other agenda, no need to feed my ego, no desire to see my name at the top of an internet message board. I even asked for people to be respectful, to honor Bill's desire for this place not to be a bashing ground. Funny, the ones who post on here to flame us for wanting to keep a subject at the top of the board did exactly that, put it back on top....
So, only 57 votes so far; some of that may be my fault for not setting the poll up correctly. Again, my apologies and thanks for the 57 that have voted. Thanks too, for those of you who tried to hold to the ground rules I posted on the original thread. Mostly, thanks to groups like IMRA, SSMS, BAM, Steve Nace & Jay Tinder at DuQuoin and especially to Harold and his Montpelier Midget Series for having a vision for something that some of you who are not involved may not understand. After all, if people can't afford to race, one day there may be no racing to see.
