[This is not the type of thinking needed from any Rally Fan or competitor]
And why is this sort of thinking ot allowed when we are all entitled to our own views and opinion? It's called free speech, and it's legal in this country.
Because you like their "Rally carnival" does not mean we all have to, there are many "closet" opinions about the Bajans non showning, just Sio had the SPINE to come out and say what he feel !!
[ We need them a lot more than they need us!!!! So to say you wont go to Bdos cuz some of they guys did not come here, can only make this worse for Rally Trinidad. ]
Seeing that you're apparently in the know about what can make or break TTRC, tell me; no tell US how they can help seeing that you're much more knowledgable than us.
Rally Trinidad in my eyes can go either way regardless of Bajans
or Jamacians, it's all in the management of the club and the membership, so if the current Admin get voted out the work this Admin did is on a rabbits Hair.
[The sponsor might not find it worthwhile to pay to come here for a 'smaller rally' when they can go to Jamaica for a 'bigger rally'. I mean smaller and bigger in terms of entry list, not in terms of quality of organisation]
So here you are in this statement defending the Bajans.There sponsors think as we small time they don't need to come here cause they wasting time and money. SAD, if as you say and so many other say; we need them so much and they know it, don't you think that's when the should support us? Mr. Cheeks tell us what they can do for us, PLEASE !, You may be holding in your hands the secret TTRC has been seeking for the 30+ years they have been in existance.
Well, maybe they don't want to, maybe they know if we get our act together we can have a event bigger than "Rally Carnival" and thereby be a threat ? Mr. Cheeks maybe you need to step back and review what "Rally Carnival" is to B'dos. It's not racing, it revenue generation, and at the end of the day their gov't will do anything to ensure that "Rally Carnival" continues.
TTRC, take note, as the Bajans don't need us, maybe when we're planning our next event we just simply look elsewhere, we'll invite Morley and Betts and move onto other Countries that we can reciprocate with. Say St. Vincent, Martinque, St. Lucia etc, I'm sure we can find other Rally Partner Contries.
[ To continue this direction we will have to do without the above statements ]
In this respect you are wrong, no country, business, club or family can progress without the input of all it members, be it good; bad or indiffrent. If you believe that hiding to say the bad is acceptable; then you may need to sit and review yourself and whatever organisation you belong to. While I fully support Sio as he has expressed to me his views, I may have said it just a wee bit different, but in the end the man talk his mind without the Fat and you all afraid you may have to tell yuh Bajan friend " dat man who say that jus chuppid or he real ignorant".
But on the other hand I see you as a spineless kiss arse who cannot tell yuh Bajan buddies, "yuh set we up man or why allyuh duck we event so jed". But you will be to busy drinking and partying to remember.
[ jackie we go lime and that small mined thinking sio is wha could only bring down rally in Trinidad ]
Well if that's the reason you going to "Rally Carnival" good, just tell me how that going to help Rally Trinidad? What you going to bring back to help develop TTRC to make a better Rally Trinidad ??? Plus; Banks and Mount Gay ?
I tell you this, Barbados Rally Club has a really good job of hosting this event, they book hotels, rental cars and sell Rally Holiday packages, something we cannot do as the businesses that they get most of these booking/endorsements from have the owners or their famalies rallying.
The Bajan rally scene is controlled by the members who are are some of the most influential businessmen in that Island. I don't want to use names as this is a open forum, but take a look at some of the names and then look at names of some of the business over there and who owns the auto Dealerships.
We, TTRC will never get to that level as the people who own businesses in Trinidad; or the people who own businesses in T&T that can help our sport grow to that level will not enter, they will continue to race BOATS !!!
Sadly, Sio has become a pivot point for all of you to Kiss Arse. Bajan Arse that is, I agree with Sio 100%.
Sio, well said bro
Just remeber, it was the Bajans who requested that we move our event so they could attend. So TTRC thinking that they; the Bajans were willing to help us make our event better moved our event. Not bigger, just make our own event Better.
Mr. Morley, Mr Goddard, Mr. Betts and Co- Driver, respect, Me and my team appreciate that you attended our event, and you will always be warmly welcomed in our tent, be if for a drink, a plate of food or a welder, you are welcomed !!!
WE hope you guys have your cars sorted out for the event on the 21st
