St. Stephen's Day rant.........

I'm told it took a couple spatulas and banker boxes to put away the remains of an import racecar which failed to heed the cones and markers in a construction zone along Oregon's Hwy. 26. The apparently impaired import runner slammed into an obvious.... CRANE! Estimates the vehicle was doing 80 at the time. Point to all this? The influence of an anti-substance-impaired racer organization operating in the real world, such as the Brotherhood of Street Racers (STILL the only organization I've run across that gets it right..) is so needful, so obvious and so unappreciated by the profit-oriented motorsports industry which is pushing 50-65 dollar admission to 'street legal" style events in California. That price inflation needs to stop at the Cali-Oregon state line; i.e., not at Medford, Woodburn, Madras or PIR! Not at Bremerton. Not anymore! Stop discouraging legal, safe racing with working people in mind.
