GPW was me btw.
Why? put it out there for everyone


It's nice that everyone is so forgiving here ,but I, myself am not.

There is no law anywhere in the USA that gives anyone of these guys the right to cross any doulble yellow anywhere. Not here ,not NC,NYC ,KC or DC.


As far as I am concerned it was YOUR responsibilty to be at the Saturday morning driver meeting.

It's not a freakin race or a time attack,your not going to get a prize or money for being the fastest.

If I seem pissed I am,...am I perfect hell no,but these pics tell the story of pure stupidity and if I were in the other lane at full song when one of poor unknowing offenders put half there car in my lane they'd be doing more that pulling sheetmetal out of their ass.

I'll be down in the fall......God help you if you pull this BS in front of me

S2ki members above posted that they have made a mistake and said sorry, so I dont see why you are threatening people for the fall dragon.

S2ki member go to WTD to have fun and drive fast but yes, we should remind ourselves that it is still a street road, not a race track.

I myself have touched the yellow lines and my rear broke lose in one corner.

This thread has been great. So far it has made three people realize it's not cool to cross the lines, and we can be sure they will never do it again.

If we keep it real, and not threaten those who have line crossed, more people will step up and do the right thing.

That's right, this is about teaching and not about blaming. I don't want to see lane crossing at any of our events, too much bad stuff can happen way too fast.

Hey Keith, we now know who it is, lets hang him!!!! Better yet, lets start a thread on him.






















Dude thats not anything I'd do Dario...

I just said I witnessed one of the people who LOVED to post videos/pics of people lane crossing, doing it themselves. I'm not naming names on that one, but they need to follow their own advice.

Dude settle down man...

It takes more balls to admit your mistakes than it does to call people out.

Its not like these people were egregiously running in the entire left lane or running people off the road.

Unless your a perfect driver, which I'm sure your not (I dont think anyone is). Chill out.
