Hah... Yeah right... Just saying the active resistance to this site by mgt. is gone... The only limits and judgements on its use and potential are what we as members place on it.

So did they shoot the last few members of the resistance. Instructor feedback, and participation are waayy down. I've also, from SB pics have noticed a few new faces with SBRS shirts, and one or two or more missing bodies. Saw an old familiar face this past weekend. Perhaps i took my short conversation with him incorrectly, but it sounds like Road America is his new employer. PCA made good use of him.

Great to see Duck, and the Doc...
Craige... We get that you have issues with Skip Barber and are grinding your ax here.
The site has always been for those who find value working and playing there. It's a tough time and I hope the company survives and thrives as the people and racing have only changed my life for the better. Hate to think of that ending.
Recall you used to offer high end cars for sale on this site and can't imagine that business isn't suffering too as you mentioned you can't afford to race.
Hope things work out for all of us.

I sent this off for an autographed copy.

I believe Duck has been in the employ of RA for a couple of years now, at least. So far as I know, this was not the result of any sort of overt action by SBR. I think he spends summers in Elkhart Lake and winters in Florida, which sounds like a pretty good retirement gig to me. It would be hard to imagine that Duck could be muzzled by anyone's management. For one thing, I don't believe I have ever seen a duck muzzle...
Re: What do you want to see new or more of on this site?
I am a fan of the site. I never met a bad person while with SBRS. I never had any kind of financial trouble from them, I have no complaints about the level of education I got and opportunity I had. For some reason, the cold shoulder I felt this site got still to this day drives me crazy. This is a pretty neat deal for a corporation to have. I guess for me its about a missed opportunity. Had it not been for TJR, I am not sure how much racing I would have done. It is a good tool to have. I hope its used properly in the future.

Glad to hear it... Thanks for the clarification... Sorry I misread you.

Re: What do you want to see new or more of on this site?
I'd say you got it about half right. Some of the people who participated in this site, and helping us race paid a heavy price. Some of that good ole east-coast Ivy league Haaaavad mentality kinda rubs me the wrong way. As for the folks at the track, how could I not love cousin keith, or Rob, or papa bear stevie D(the D stands for domino). Of course what do I know, this thread was dead two weeks ago....

Re: What do you want to see new or more of on this site?
One thing that bugs me is the photo and video uploading here sucks, is there any newer V-Bul code for improved uploading/albums? One of the reasons I stopped adding pics and vids to our galleries, too much of a pain, unreliable, buggy. I am comparing to FB which works extremely well, fast, versatile, so much better. Any upgrades available?
