Elitist, hardly. I NEVER wanted to do anything against the greater good of
RASCAR. I dont want to RUN anything but now WE havent much choice except
John re-taking RASCAR which is un-acceptable to me and others. Or in this
case give everyone some input keep the rules as simple and clearly defined
as possible and hope we ALL put enough peer pressure on the bad drivers to
make them improve.
Peer pressure is a much better weapon than any threat.
Eldred really never had any authority to put John in charge and when the
impact of that decision failed he should have just let John fade back to
painter/driver status. Thats just an opinion btw. We had many
opportunities to resolve any issues but JS refused anything but his way.
