Sorry my new work schedule is much more demanding otherwise I would have re-posted before now.
First of all, I have TONS of respect for Terry. I would consider him a friend even outside of the boating (not sure what he thinks of me though… JK). Terry and the rest of the MMEU group have taught me most of what I know about the FE power source and applying it to boats. With that being said, Terry and I don’t always see eye to eye when it comes to certain situations were opinions can vary. That doesn’t always mean one of us is wrong or both of us are right. In fairness to Terry, I can be a complete pain in the Arss, just ask him. However, I pride myself on being honest with people. Sometimes that honesty can be exhausting and portray the wrong intent (again me being an arss). I NEVER intended to “throw Terry under the bus”.
I was simply trying to offer my opinion and suggesting that a conversation can go a long way with fixing or understanding situations and why decisions are made regarding how races are run or why a CD finds it necessary to mandate rules out side of the IMPBA or NAMBA rule book. It happens all of the time and will continue to happen. We all have something to learn from each other.
I will also say that I don’t think for a minute the majority of fossil burning RC boating hobbyist (regardless of the club) has a vendetta against FE or vice versa. Sure there will always be some rotten eggs, but when and where doesn’t that happen.
I have already wasted too much time typing this out without rustling anymore feathers… I am always available by phone if someone is interesting in talking. I can get more accomplished in 5 min on the phone than I can in 2 pages of typed word on the internet…
Later,
Mike
