As an organizer for another car club who uses the venue, myself and my group are directly affect by the events which have recently transpired. As disheartening as it may be that we may have to move our show this year (after 10+ in the same location) some RS members are taking things a bit to far.

Direct insults, threats, and digging for dirt are not a constructive way to solve anything nor does it make RS and its community look any better then those who were involved in ruining WCCE's event. Yes the kid screwed up, yes its a total mess. However he also young and inexperienced and lets face it.. his PR could use a little work. (Enzo.. I know you are reading this... sometimes a little humility is not a bad thing bro).

None of this warrants low blows guys. As a community we also need to take some (and I stress SOME) responsibility for not stepping up at the time and telling the idiots to knock it off. This isn't an us and them thing... they are us and we are them. Many RS members were there and many cars that were there will be at the RS meet.

Lets just cool it a bit and make sure the RS meet is a good one. Show the city, the police, the media that petrol heads aren't all hooligans again. Enzo's young, hopefully he learns and understands why there has been such a negative back lash. If he wants to put on meets all the power to him, I just hope if he does it again he asks the more experienced (IE, RS organizers) for some tips so past events don't reoccur. On the flip side of that I hope the more experienced are willing to offer to offer that assistance.

"1st offense you didn't know
2nd offense you didn't understand
3rd offense now your doing it on purpose"

Please don't let it go past 1 WCCE....
