This is a joke right?
Nope. And a mod took his advice and started a thread for me that I wasn't asked if I wanted it to be made.

Why would reports about and photos of the races themselves belong in this years-old thread arguing against the event's existence? I see an event thread for it from last year.
As I said above, my motivation for the request was that a member who disagrees with the premise of the thread was acting like a loud heckler in audience... trying to shout down this discussion with a series of off-topic posts.I get it but the motivation behind the request and feeling of "disrespect" is odd.
Good post, Gnomesayin. Thanks for taking the time to write it.I don't think anyone here actually intends to actively disrespect the dead. However, calling @LewTheShoe a sicko and acting as if he finds pleasure in the carnage is ridiculous.
I look at it this way. If someone told me that they believe football or boxing or another violent sport should be banned due to the known effects of head trauma, I would tell them that I likely disagree and don't consider that the appropriate step. However, I wouldn't pretend that their concerns are completely unfounded, or that they enjoy watching men suffer from brain damage because they call attention to it.
These are complicated questions, and there are no simple answers unless you have a very simplistic view of the world.
Rich Vogler ended my interest in sprint cars. That racing is for ghouls. You KNOW a big wreck is coming. Quite possibly/likely a very serious if not fatal accident. But there is a contingent here that see no evil, hear no evil. And do their best to shout down anyone that they disagree with. One in particular has a large portion of this boards posts. Really needs to get a life.3 dead at the Isle this year. That is a motorsport event that has fallen out of interest for me.
When racers are consisrantly dying no matter what the event, its a no-go for me.
My opinion is no less valid than anyone else. That really makes you mad, huh?Find a better way to insult other posters. Rich Vogler deserves better than to be used by you.
I do. Lots of StartTv. Good looking female cops kicking azz.If you don’t like Isle of Man then watch something else.
Sorry. Can’t agree with that. Rich Vogler was lost 32 long years ago.My opinion is no less valid than anyone else.
Crazy. Sad. Suicide missions disguised as a motorcycle race.They had a father and son pass away today in the sidecars.
