whats that suppose to mean??? like I said no drama...

it's not supposed to be DRAMATIC it's just a minor thing doods. We all like the same things, cars. So. Let's just stop and appreciate our diversity for a second.

I don't think anyone views themselves as a leader here. Sure there are members who started the club, run the site, organize the events, etc. They are more like public servants that give of their time to benefit the rest of us and I think that is what makes this club so attractive. In n Out is a great tradition for Vegas just like Reno has their own tradition. Variety is the flavor of life.

No Drama...I've just never heard of board admins being called "The leaders"....

"...A reference to the 1978 cult mass-suicide in Jonestown, Guyana. Jim Jones, the leader of the group, convinced his followers to move to Jonestown. Late in the year he then ordered his flock to commit suicide by drinking grape-flavored Kool-Aid laced with potassium cyanide. In what is now commonly called "the Jonestown Massacre", 913 of the 1100 Jonestown residents drank the Kool-Aid and died. " :alien:

I was not trying to alienate you and your friends from LV. I welcome you to join us.

I completely understand if you did not know we existed, but clearly you did once you decided to post on our web site. Clearly you know Mare, and she knew about us...

I invite you to come to our meet and check us out. if you don't like us, do your own thing.

Just realize that there is an established group that already has good relations with vendors, shops, other racing clubs, tracks, law enforcement, etc... here in Reno. Why would you want to exert the energy to try an recreate that and dilute the community as a whole?

Heck, at some point, we even discussed changing our name to something other than SECCS. If there is enough interest in doing so from all parties, maybe that happens. "Flat SECCS" "4 SECCS" "SECCSy FLAT 4" :)

wildfirefli 2009-04-02 11:29 AM

Yeah. so the "public servants" anyway.And yeah, everyone knows not to drink the koolaid. I still think some people should tho. Like those mentioned in my rants and raves, yeah. Which would also be said douchebags I was speaking of. And I am the one that called them the leaders, that is how I feel. They have more experience than me and they guide me along on my path of becoming a well seasoned Autox driver.

wildfirefli 2009-04-02 11:30 AM

Damn! That's what I was trying to get at the whole time. I say FLAT4SECCS.. haha! good one. lols! it's dirty, I like it!

wildfirefli 2009-04-02 11:32 AM

I'm cool if you guys want to hate on me tho. Mr. Monkey seems particularly fond of that.

I will be there tonight for sure. I apologize if I have come on to strong.. as for the name maybe we could come together as one that would be awesome but thats later down the road. I really want to merge with the seccs with no drama. I have some flat4 members that will show up tonight...

Mr. Monkey is in NASCARolina, so he has no choice but to be grumpy. :)


I would also encourage you folks to come out to the Autocross School/Test & Tune Sat. and first competitive event of the season Sun. at Stead airport. Much of the club will be there driving, instructing, etc...

cody 2009-04-02 12:05 PM

Yeah for merging! Now that we all smelled eachother's butts and established a pecking order. :P

Welcome!

wildfirefli 2009-04-02 12:41 PM

Pecking order! I'm really bummed that I have to work saturday but Chris is an instructor so I am going to be getting private lessons because my job sucks at life. Also. I want private lessons from you cody, As well. You have already tought me things and I haven't even been in the car with you. But, I bet I could do it better if you were.

cody 2009-04-02 02:39 PM

I was tempted to say you should probably get coaching from someone faster than Cody, but he is getting pretty good. In general, our whole Subaru crew is getting pretty good.

As the old man, I can feel all you youngins catching up. I am going to have to resort to treachery pretty soon. I feel like Obi-wan in the duel with Darth in the first Star wars... Student has become the master.... :(

MattR 2009-04-02 03:53 PM

I can't make the meet tonight. Poo
