[QUOTE="BassBrawlinBill, post: 6833902, member: 613354"] I've never dissed Drag other then saying they have NO events any where near me and thats a fact not an opinion. I need more then that, much more! I like to hit at least 1 and 2 if there are 2 every single weekend, TNESPL and NESPL make that possible for me. I have heart, as much heart as ANY 1 in the sport and I sacrifice as much as any 1 one in this sport to compete. I often don't eat so I can upgrade or make more shows, stupid? maybe but its what I love and brings me what is so often ellusive to me: joy. I don't care how far Finals are, its a once a year thing and worth basically any distance IMO but in order for me to compete in Drags and hit a show every weekend I would have to spend my entire life on the road and have about 10,000 times the amount of money I have now lol. I LOVE to drive any distance, always have always will, but even if I had the money I couldn't do it. I care a less about money so it's not that, it is my family. I care for my elderly grandmother and mother on a daily basis, I am all they have and while they would be fine without me on any given day or even a week they wouldn't be for more then that , their health is just too poor and they depend on me too much. I know your post wasn't a personal attack on me Nate, but maybe you will stop and think about why a person is saying what they are saying. I complain about Drag because I would love to hit an event every weekend but am frustrated they have not one single event in my state or even New England. I know this is an expensive sport and "the poor" should stay out of competing or so most say but if the only people in this sport were rich every event would be near empty and there would be no one left to reality check the rich folk. ;^) I am all to aware I am A NOBODY and my opinion doesn't mean shit but for what its worth I will continue to love my local organizations, give them 100% support and continue to wish DB Drag had even one show in my state and exspress my frustration about it.
