To address John Cooks misinformation on facetubes...

I've contacted Dunlop and let them know that as long as they do business with John Cook, there is zero chance of me doing business with them.
I suggest you all do the same.

 

Wow, you don't even know me. Good for you.

 

Nobody is attacking you for Sean.

People are “attacking” you because we all have seen our heard or experienced our own versions of dealings with and towards you.

In fact I’ll go on record and state that Sean is a dumbass for even allowing you at a wera event.

Here let me just talk shit about you and your wife and the way you run your org. Oh by the way; I want to sell product and make money at your events.

 

I wouldn’t go that far. I doubt Dunlop follows social media or the bbs.

What I would suggest is doing like I do and ordering them directly from racetire services and have them shipped to you.

 

Since I appear to have been the first "Billy Badass" in this thread (who knew? Never realized I was a thug.), let me clarify my position. I gave Sean kudos for remaining calm about comments (true or not) regarding Ev etc. I didn't threaten to hurt anyone.

In addition, I posted that if anyone went from discussing something as inconsequential as club racing/track days/et al to discussing my spouse (or family) and denigrating them in any capacity, I wouldn't be so forgiving.

Let me reiterate, I don't care if it's true or not. My spouse/child are not cannon fodder - they are off limits and honestly are irrelevant.

Beyond that, I have no reason to "come find you", unless of course you commit the aforementioned transgression.

(If that ever happened, my name and number are in my signature - you feel free to "come find me".)

Also, I don't think Sean needs me to handle whatever business you two might have on a personal level. My guess is he would just giggle at you anyway.

Fish on.

 

Up the gate fees $5, everyone who presents their license gets in free. Free to the racers, everyone else, including racers family offset the cost.

 

Can you refund the gate fee when they get to registration?

 

The end result of all effort should be that the club makes enough not to have to charge high gate fees. Sometimes it is warranted depending on the event and the venue. I've been involved in a few mergers & acquisitions over the years. P&L and balance sheets look good, assets are accounted for - but cash flow would show a different story. Personal purchases, gas, groceries, rents, mortgages, car notes, insurance, vacations, and fat paychecks - all showed in the cash flow reports that the individuals were running many personal expenses through the company. Before anybody starts with any bullshit I'm not saying that is the case here. Over the years the club has cut expenses by discontinuing some classes and consolidating races to maximize participation. From the things I see today - economy booming, people working, and bigger grids - maybe the new Pitt endurance event could be expanded to other venues with their current partner or with new ones. Maybe adding a couple more vintage classes back into the mix might add racers. I know about running a successful business - you expand in good economies and contract in bad. Charging a family of 5 $150 to come to an event will definitely limit the number of times those people will come out to a race.

 

You've never even met me, never had any face to face interaction with me whaysoever. Your opinion of me can only be based on what you have seen here yet you want to kick my ass..... I have some communication from you a while back saying I was a good guy. That all changed when I tried to make a kid whole that got screwed by Clarence on a KTM deal and you were on the other side of the situation. At least try to be honest RB.

 

Refund at registration or send them back to the gate with their license receipt. It shouldn't add too much to the workload and overall a net positive depending on "spectators" vs licensed racers. Biggest thing is communicating to racers which tracks charge and keep the fee and which one you keep fee and can actually make that decision.

 

You must be new here. You're talking to the wrong guy about racing financials.

 

So are you a superstock badass or superbike badass?

 

Kinda Superbikey as always.

 

Just put some spaces on the bottom of the license, say 10 or 12, each space is good for 1 free entry. The rider can use them however they see fit. The gate dude punches each one used out.
