So, when nobody wants to come to your races this happens, you give away 10 free entries! I think it's proof nobody is interested in his bullshit format.

Anyway, if anybody is interested, go for it, you're guaranteed a top 5 maybe even a podium!

Then... this.

He still has it, didn't sell it.

Maybe I should get the justy out...


Think he'll bite?

I mean, it's extreme, and I'm elite. So...

Worth a try i suppose, and it's a subaru so you'll win.

But the hood is too thin to stand on for the champagne spray... whatever will I do???

Oh, I see RA has recently downgraded me to a senior moderator... so my elite status is in question.

Better do some more push-ups.

If you get into the race for free, you shall be knighted as senior ÉLITE ubermensch moderator of us all... and if you win don't forget to not mention the free inscription to phoque up his propaganda!

So, what's the issue with his rallies? I know there was some controversy and a split and he went NRS a couple of years ago, but it's all way across the continent for me so I haven't really paid much attention. It seems like he's been getting 4-6 of the same cars over and over, and a bunch of bikes and UTVs.

Aside from the ridiculous name, there's the rule that all tires MUST be Pirelli, summer and winter, and that they MUST be bought from one guy, and the rule that says all fuel must be whatever and it must be bought from this other one guy...there is the fact that the rallies have had fields of i think the max was 8 or maybe 9 cars---can't remember but the event they had the largest entry the entire field DNFes...Yeah, brah that's elite! and Extreme! And obviously finishing a short event is a challenge..

Its just more balkanization of an already tiny balkanized sport..Kinda like Duh Knees inventing 2-3-4 "sanctioning bodies' in rapid succession..what the fuck is the point.

The fact that it was under the NASA umbrella means also that the fishy rules forcing people to buy ONLY Pirelli tires was in conflict with the stated goals of NASA being "for the clubbie guys", same with the Must buy your gas from one guy thing.. I have almost always run on 2nd had tires and pump gas..But in this obviously buddy deal I could not even buy second hand Pirellis someplace, has to be from his buddy..

In short, the whole pointlessness of the whole thing.

Which includes 'pump' gas, which must be a 91 octane blend from the official fuel supplier at a significant premium over local pump prices. (I can't find it now, but think it is something like 10 cents/litre (corrected)... which admittedly is probably less than $40 over the weekend)

He also had a ride - sponsored, I think - in a side-by-side in the series last year.

Since John just beat me to it, let me add, he literally buys pump gas, puts a dye in it and sells it to you at a 10cents/L premium... now that's a load of bullshit!!!!


I understand that you want to control race gas but the ordinary shit for ordinary fucks like you and me, come on, give me a brake!


Everything is controlled by one person... and his sister.


I even met a guy at lapping 2 weeks ago who used to rally & he hates Tremblay. Why is it that every stranger i meet in the province with regards to rally hates his guts?


Oh, and i will never be a marshall or blocker for him again. Vince and I have crossed half the province twice to help (and learn shit before we start rallying).


The first time we were told to be timekeepers without any proper instruction but they didn't give us anything like even a 20$ for gas (no budget at Latuque we were told).


The second time, we were blockers and they told us nothing for blockers only timekeepers... (basically, go fuck yourself, but we need as many volunteers as possible, go figure!)


If you actually talk to the dude he sounds really full of himself!


For someone like Dubé, who did just about every race around here for the last 10 years, to refuse to come says it all. I think he got screwed... after all, he did the swap to sxs & dropped out, probably was promised stuff that never happened i guess.
