Too bad, we can only vote once..............................

I voted several times......in my mind!
I was mirror raced in the May 9th race by a car that had a mirror in it. Every time i went low he went low every time I went higher( you really did not want to go high) he went high. When i did get by I drove right away from him. I should have punted him into the wall but I do not race that way.The mirror driving cost me the lead in the race. Why the **** do you need a mirror to race??? If you get your fender up so the car you are passing can see you then you have the lane.If the leading cars driver can not see you to his or her right or left in there peripheral vision than the car that is behind does NOT have a lane. If your car is slow for what ever reason than all you have to do his run a smooth line and the overtaking race car will pass you . NO mirror needed. Those Wimpy cup drivers use mirror to block and you see what happens.
Give me some MUD but NO to mirrors. And no to the Democrats turning the USA into a Socialist country.

Doesn't matter either way to me. I can see where drivers are coming from on both ends...when I had my mirror I barely used it, but would glance in it once in awhile to see if someone was coming then hold my line a little more since I was a slower car. Other than that I never used it for anything else.
One thing that does kind of disgust me is the fact that every car goes through pre-race tech inspection...correct? So WHY when the rules clearly state no rear view mirrors this year, are there cars being allowed out on the track with them? Some kind of special treatment? In my opinion, letting drivers go with breaking a small rule like the rear view mirror one, sends a message that it is okay to break other rules, and drivers will start to push to see how much they can get away with.

Some drivers/crews put the mirror in after the safety inspection..........................

Well said Phil! I never raced with a rear view mirror and I don't ever remember wishing I had a mirror in my car. I'm not usually wondering what, or who is behind me, that really is irrellevant?? I'd think it would be a distraction?? Keep your eyes forward and drive the car! JMO!!!
Shawn! Try it you might like it.................................
I was of the same opinion, until I actually drove with one..................................
Anything that can help avoid contact (flat tires)....., is a good thing.................

i know i liked the mirrors , kept me from gettin hit sometimes ,just my opion ,i say bringem back
Ditto there critter! Dont put one in your car if you dont want one otherwise.
i guess time will tell ,hopefully we get to bring them back
Critter, Neets is not a Republic, it's more like a dictatorship and Joe is the dictator.
Voting won't get you your mirrors back.
Although getting down on your knees and begging just might.
NEETS was originally formed to be the greatest amount of good for the greatest amount of members.........................
We always went along with the majority consenus, hopefully thats the way NEETS presently is operating................................

Hey RP besides you ,Howie and myself is there anyone else left that raced the 1st Neets touring season? phil
The race is in front of you, not behind you. Just remember if you mirror drive, some driver will just push you out of the way. Mirrors won't help you then!!!! J m o
