tech guys

ok lets see i asked you before race about this,150 laps is hard on motors and equipment thats why i asked you what if something fails and you dont make vacum would you be dq and you said yes. So i dont think, you i mean as officials should not even asked a fine up standing guy like chris reichert if he cares what you do, you should made the call as the promoter of the race.because you would not even had a meeting if it was chris that won the race and burned a wire on his car and didnt make vacum you just would of dq him this is my opinion only, its was a good season of races at neets just have to keep everthing equal thanks neets for a good season Cory Baver

I dont recall having a conversation with you at all!!! Read the post before that is locked and you will find out why !! If you recall earlier in the year one of Chris`s team mates(#70)Won the race( and we had a meeting because his car wouldnt run) and allowed him to put a starter in his car so I could pull vacum!!!!( It took 20 minutes to do ) So I let Timmy put on a plug wire( it took 10 seconds to do) and it passed and that was my decission!!! Please put a rest to this ,We as officials give everyone a fair chance!! And I know you would expect the same when you get in this position!! Joe please lock this post also!!

why do we have these if there going to be locked just keep starting a new one,well you made the choice to put the wire on because it would of put pauch to 5 points standings thats why you did it dont sugar coat anything by bringing something up in the past.because the rules stated for this race, its the last one so no excuses

Now you accuse Me of favortism!!! Not a chance here!! I dqed Richy Smith last night and I have known him and have been freinds with him alot longer then i have known Timmy. Everyone was givin chances all year and if you want to defend Chris come to the rules meeting on Saturday and we will talk , and maybe the rule will change I dont know!! But dont bash on here if you have something to say CALL ME my number is on the contacts section of the NEETS home page!!!! I am probally one of the most resonable tech guys in racing!!

Rick is right about letting me put a starter on my car, but a starter does not, not, not change the performance of a motor, a burnt plug wire will change the performance. Pauch did not pass tech until he put a new plug wire on his motor. I can't go put on a different carb if i do not pass tech. Go to the neets web site, it states that there will be no leniency. That was stated before the race. I understand trying to help out and to make things right, no one wants to lose a race because of a failure, i understand it was done in the past, but my problem with this situation is that it was stated, and stressed before the race. I believe in the interest of fairness that pauch should have been disqualified, i like tim, he's a tough competator, but why make a statement and then go back on it. Neets needs to stick to the rule book. This will be my last post on this issue. The decisions have been made, (however contravershall), there is nothing we can do to change their decision, all we can do is learn from it. If chris reichert, or myself, would not have passed tech i would be saying the same thing. The rules are the rules!!!! Keep this forum open, we all have opinions and we all should be heard, because without the drivers and fans, there will be no neets!!!! Captain # 70

I just think it is funny how Chris was the one standing up for Timmy and wanted him to get the win and everyone else complains. You can hear his car dying in the last 20-30 laps of the race...Joe and I stay out of tech and it was a courtesy to the top 6 drivers to have the meeting and talk it out with everyone involved.

With that said, I think we all had a great year and I think that these complaints happen no matter where you go. Everyone has a problem with something somewhere, but where else can you go where you are actually listened to? Like I say to everyone, if you have a problem call one of us and we will work things out and explain things better than we could by typing...don't hide behind the computer and say things that you wouldn't normally say to our faces. I know no matter what is done there is always going to be someone unhappy but we are willing to explain the reason why we do certain things and if you just listen to what we have to say you may just understand.

There are certain people I have much respect for that call with problems rather than starting trouble on the forum...the forum is for information, updates, etc...not picking battles.

You are right Captain and as far as Timmys car it would not idle smoothly without the plug wire!!! And as far as you car it wouldnt even run so really there is no difference!! If anyone else`s car did the same thing they would have been able to put a wire on!! But NO adjustments, I stopped Timmy from going to adjust his carb to smooth out the idle!! And if I remember Captain I allowed you to put you loose distributor back in time to get a smooth idle that day also!! Like I said I am very fair and easy to get along with and I want to stay that way!!!! I hope I dont have to become like everyother Tech man out there!!

iam done its been a great race season, so have a good banquet and holiday season see ya next year

We dont want to be like every other enduro series out there , we want to be better and we value everybodys efforts, and listen to what everyones opinions good bad or indifferent!!! With that said we are trying to be as perfect as humanly possible and NOBODY is perfect!! But we are getting much better and we will keep getting better and have more and more cars and competition and hopefully become the best in the tri state area!!
