As I read all of these messages, I am amazed that there are actually
people who protest this sort of thing. I'm a rookie auto-xer with Ohio
Valley Region, and all of our events are pretty laid back. As a novice,
this rulebook lawyer thing scares me, and I'd like to think that these
people don't make up a large percentage of us. It's all about having
fun, right? I autocross for fun, not for bloodthirsty competition. I'm
not good; if i don't win, I accept that, and I move on. Shouldn't we all
do the same? If I decide to attend a CenDiv divisional, will I be
attacked by rabid rulebook lawyers citing passages of the rulebook that I
don't even know about? What's it really like? Some opinion on the
"atmosphere" at the different levels of competition would be
appreciated...
Thanks,
