Hacking, Bashing and bad sportsman like conduct

[rocco79]

It seems to me that hacking, bashing and just plain 'ol poor sportsman like conduct is growning at an out of control rate in our hobby....

I know that the occasional bump and crash is unavoidable and should completely expected in the hobby of r/c racing, but blatent sh*ty driving seems to become the norm for most ( no offense, but if you are taking this general statement personal then you might need to think about your driving style)

Too often in all classes i see too many guys using competitors as bumpers in corners, jumping pipes, ramming people till they get out of the way, crashing into a tangle of r/c's at full speed.... ect ect ect.... You guys know what i mean.

Unfortunaley one of my favorite classes ( Standard MT) Is basically the worst offerneder when it comes to ruff driving. I understand that there are alot of new guys in this class but how are they going to learn how to act on the track if experinced guys act like a**holes and basically treat others high dollar toys like sh*t.

I dont think the track officals can do anymore than what they have expect black flag people... I think that the only way for things to get better is by us racers policing ourselves, by this i mean we all need to clean up our acts and start racing clean races.


Sorry i know this rambles on and on but I was thinking about this all day but when it came time to type it out i couldnt pull it all together so if anyone has any thoughts on this please chime in...
