Let's keep it the way it is with us, folks - fun, laid-back, corny, free spirited, chill... I just got through reading some stuff in "Racers Corner" and it is a drama fest in there.

Yes there is some serious drama happening in racers corner, and if you got through all 20 pages you are a champion.
Racing brings out the drama queen in all of us. There are several people that live here, and there. I think if you had a big group of supermoto racers posting here you'd have plenty of your own drama to deal with.

I've read through about 14 pages so far, if ever I'd thought to go road racing, this is certainly the kind of BS to detour me. I've heard about the power trips and the politics in AFM for years now, and this thread confirms it.
There are mini versions of this in Supermoto USA, to the point where I've chosen to stick to track days for a while (that and a certain lack of skill on my part!). No drama, no politics, no stress, more laps, less money, way more fun for the buck!!
Did I thank you Deon for a great year? I really appreciate what you guys have done, please continue. Certainly none of us can know how much effort was involved, but I'll bet it's more than most people would be willing to do without pay.:hail :hail

There's a reason I only do SM track days...
I used to be a CCS track official.
