Three Rivers Festival "Rock The Fort Comp" Ft Wayne, IN July 18th

I must agree with Brian, I've been racing along time and outside of the closet group of friends competition is ruthless, Crawling is so nice because it truly seems as if everyone just wants to see somebody raise the bar so they know it can be done"thumbsup" and all the drivers are willing to help....
 
Bob had the Twisted Camera up and running.........THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! Said they are working on getting them posted soon.
 
Yeah, my comments weren't meant to start stuff. Just wanted to give you an idea of what an observer that wasn't in the comp would think. I know when my buddy and I start bitching at each other you'd think we hated each other, but its all in jest.

I also know what its like to deal with municipalities when you try to do something that they have no experience with. The good thing is going forward you guys have set a benchmark so you will have a lot more information for next year's comp.

I think one that that may be nice in the future would be a sign with some of the basic rules for people that don't know whats going on.

You guys might also be able to make some cash with the rent a crawler idea that Twisted has up this way. I know I would have rented one for a few minutes to give the course a try since mine wasn't rock ready yet.

Anyway, had we had more time I would have loved to stay and watch some more. I almost find as much fun in watching RC's as running them.
"thumbsup"
 
Had a blast .... Thanks

I would like to thanks everyone involved for putting on a great event. It was a fun day crawling and hanging out with friends. As far as any whine ass stuff going on, i must have been at a different comp. This is a great group of guys that came together in Fort Wayne to crawl and promote the hobby. So did people see whine behavior or good friends picking on each other only they will know. Now from what i see here no paid drivers have had anything bad to say which is all that matters. I as a driver paid for an entry, drove 3 hours one way and had a blast and will be back again. Judges and the rule were covered 100% in the drivers meeting, thanks by the way. "thumbsup"


Just a few side notes:

My buddy and I stopped by there on Saturday to watch Thank You for stoping to watch and all I have to say is there sure are some immature whine asses that crawl. WOW, This is a great group of guy to crawl with, You might not want to go to a large national event if you think this was bad. The whole half hour we sat there and watched it was a bunch of petty bickering between a few of the people about when the timer started, time starts when the truck cross's the start line who was calling out stuff, judge's normally call out the points who was and wasn't a judge. judge's were named in the drivers meeting

Just wanted to know that there are some folks out there that give a negative first impression to people walking by. I'm sorry that friends having fun poking and picking at each other was scaring off people that were walking by from buying a crawler and enjoying the hobby. I know many people that walked by were very happy to see the family fun that crawling has. I only say this because alot of drivers were also there driving with their sons some as young as 8.

Family Fun Hobby i think would be a plus "thumbsup"
Friends enjoying a hobby on a beatiful day, a plus "thumbsup"
sorry if all of this looked to be negative :cry:

Now the plus side it did look like a very challenging course yes they were and there were a lot of little rigs sitting around. Maybe next year you guys could petition to get it put a little closer to the main areas. this could maybe be ok, but i for one liked it where it was. There was over $3000 setting there on every table in those little rigs, so having a lot of non drivers just walking around could open up to some issues.


I'm glad you stoped by, i hope next year more drivers will show up because this was a great day of crawling with friends "thumbsup"

Thanks for putting on a fun comp :mrgreen:
