Well today I just got back from Blumingburg (Near walden) where they were racing stocks cars, ect..... We came there to watch and have some fun.

Now im just sitting around with my friend enjoying the races, watching the guys ripping up the track....

There was an anoyying crowd making fun of the racers, laughing when they crashed hard, screaming things that were totally inappropriate. I was embarrassed to be at the same place as them.


Now this year I went to Rausch Creek (GNCC) which was my first XC race (Spectating). It is so much different... Everyone was friendly and willing to help another. No one was wishing a rider would wreck, or saying rude things to one another....


This is just pointing out how friendly this sport really is. Im glad I can be part of such a great sport.

Werd! Another thing i like about this sport is that when you go to a race you dont know whos gunna win! I just dont see the point in going to a Dirtbike Mx race when you know RC and Bubba Stewart are gunna win!:cool:

Well just a memory from Rausch.... When a guy got hung up or injured on the track, all the spectators were there to help.

The racing I saw last night, it was all critizing other drivers. I think most people came to watch that race to see accidents :o .

The people that were screaming behind me were mad because one driver wasn't injured :rolleyes: .

It just really makes you think how friendly our sport is. Its awesome to be part of a sport that is so great......
