I haven't done it for awhile but I am going to start racing radio
controlled
cars again this years. Many people wouldn't consider that "real racing"
but
the way I see it, if the object is to go fast and get to the finish line
first
it is "Racing". I find it amusing that some people don't consider kart
racers
"real racers". I don't race karts and I wouldn't want to but it is
definitely
"real racing". Apparently if you don't race in Winston Cup, Indycar, or
Formula 1 you must not be a real racer. If I had the money and support
to
work my way through the ranks of professional racing I feel I could be
pretty
good on any level. But I don't have the money to do that and not many
other
people do either. So I race what I can and if the opportunity arises to
get
into other forms of racing I will take them. Just like you said racing
is
racing. I would race anything, anywhere. Except a drag car, now this
is the
one thing I don't consider real racing. This is nothing but a waste of
time
and good ***. Drag racing is nothing but a big hole that people
throw
money into, and nobody cares about except the "racers" themselves.
I'm not worried about being flamed by fans of drag racing, they will be
too
busy waxing their cars to bother. If it wasn't the truth it wouldn't
hurt
anyway.
