Fellas, this is what i feel about the whole situation( although i am just a "small fry" when it comes to drag racing etc.) :
In my mind....Drag racing...and any motorsport on the whole in Trinidad will always be neglected because of one individual! And allyuh could shoot meh if allyuh want (at least try  ) The present Minister of Sport, Mr.Gary Hunt will never support any auto Association Body in Trini because of past incidents. I believe he said it out LOUD in a particular meeting way back in Waller days. As I said before...that is just how i feel.
I will always back u guys when it comes to any type of racing.....but it's sad we will have to depend on fellow enthusiasts to take money out of there own pockets to build drag strips and racing tracks. just because of one persons Selfish ways and "small man syndrome". Ah doh usually get on so....but das just how ah brother feels! Big Up!  |
Me?! I didnt do anything, yet.
Since my name was called I feel compelled to reply to you.
I have to disagree with your statements and I disagree not on past and present personal/public battles, personal agendas etc. but on what I've seen happen over the past year.
The current Minister of Sport Gary Hunt is the only Minister of Sport to EVER in the history of motorsport in T&T give the sport a public consultation and mobilise his Ministry and the Sporting Company to find a way for motorsport to move forward.
If what you say is true then that would have never happened. He would have just ignored any mention of motorsport. |

And Computerman has accurately expressed what transpired.
But Professor, are you trying to link the meeting, and those who attended with this… “Hear that the Highway was a Drag Strip after the meeting“
It was made very clear in the meeting that:
(a) Street racing is being done to the detriment of all Motor Sport initiatives.
(b) Those who indulge in such illegal activities will not be welcome in being part of this new initiative
(c) And those who attend also directly support such illegal activities, doh care how they try to spin it.
For those who wish to continue to be cynical, that is their right, and those who wish to continue trying to do something positive, you are most welcome. |
A young lady who works with Trinmar came up to me this morning and asked me why we have to drive so reckless, I asked her what she meant by that ? She asked if there was not some car meeting in Grand Bazzar, I said I believe there was, she then said, "after the meeting the cars were flying down the road". Not being very educated, but could put one and one together, that's the number I came up with. As to driving fast on the road, I do it from time to time, so much so, that when the last Police stopped me, I thanked him, as it seemed like I needed that help to restrain myself. A reformed drunk is always the biggest advocate against drinking (don't get uptight about that remark, it refers to me) |

Yes, working on an available date for the venue for the next general meeting.
And after this, possibly the first week in June
the holding of the first gathering of members and supporters with a Swap Meet at Grand Bazzar.
Confirmation on all of the above will be announced shortly. |

It is 2010 and the month of March has come upon us already. I have the same concern as in the above quote X2. Anything OFFICIAL yet? |
