Wink Chill out man!!!!!!

Just a quick one to remind all you drivers out there in oOPLE land, that you too were once a learner, and probably crashed into other more experienced drivers once or twice, so when someone who is new to this game crashes into you, its not nice to be shouted at. And swearing your head off and insulting him/her or there parents, does nothing but put them off coming back. And without new blood comin through the sport will just wither away and die!!!!!!so calm down and chill!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amen to all those thoughts. However, what is happening at your Club that pits beginners in the same heat as experienced drivers? Don't you have a beginners heat that allows the experienced drivers to watch, and offer help to the new drivers? Isn't that the way to make sure that the new blood comes, and stays?

Its a valid point () - but say it to the person who has offended you!

On the other hand, newbies need to remember that we choose to do this as we enjoy it, for fun/pleasure. And with a smile and realisation that "It doesn't matter, you will not set any records on day1", rather than get red faced and angry, then they'll get all the help they need if they ask, and sometimes if they don't ask!
