I would suggest that you read all the forum rules or be ready to be roasted.

I would suggest you lurk for awhile before stepping in. It is one of the best tech site out there that I know of, but the sites admin. Does not tolerate violations of there rules.

Here is a perfect example. I have discussed with another board mod about the level in which we are willing to help others who we compete with.

I TOTALLY agree with you. If a competitor came up to me and asked my help with fixing something on his car.....all over that.....THAT TRAIT COST ME A CHAMPIONSHIP...but I would still do it.

To put it all in perspective of what this topic was originally about ...
I quoted Randy and Lonnie ... but this is just for general consumption ...

If the same competitor came up to either you and, with a speech impediment, called the part he needed a "wha-wha-wha- what's-it" instead of it's proper name, a "whose-it" ...

would you

1) still help him because he's still a racer and we are all brothers in some form or fashion

or

2) verbally berate him in the middle of the pits for being an a_s_s-clown? Afterall, he should know how to communicate and know the name of the part he needs, right?
