And if you look at Bad Dad's post, there are defiantly times where the promoter isn't necessarily doing a stellar job and this too needs to be addressed. My post spoke in generalities of the vast majority (in my opinion) of promoters and with any average some end up above the "acceptable" range and some below. You will always end up with a few bad eggs too. The one part of it I don't agree with is the "screw you, why should I come back" attitude. I tend to be more of a "lets address these issues and see if we can resolve them" kind of guy, but that is just my approach, it doesn't work for everyone.. I think in these cases we need to try and effect changes at the tracks, if you get nowhere move up the food chain. Only after the channels are exhausted do you say "screw you guys, I'm going home". After all, the sad truth is that there is just no reaching some people. Part of my "race track utopia" view is that we all work together which includes promoters listening to legitimate concerns on the part of fans, drivers and crews which are presented in a rational way. Not to say that I don't loose my temper and have my go to h3LL attitude moments, but in the end that gets us nowhere. Calm down, take a deep breath and try to work it out. In no way trying to slam you Bad Dad, just presenting another viewpoint to keep some dialog going.
