Mail to NotMyTarga:

Quote of yours: "Now I'm wondering if we should make some modifications within the rules"???????????


Sounds like you're the kind of anall parent who has a SIX YEAR OLD son, with you as the little league coach or parent that takes over from having the kid do his project, with him making the car, not having him learn anything, with you taking over.............shove him aside and you'll do it for him...........

Your delving into the rules on how to modify or "adapt" them (cheat? gasp) such as only having the car ride on 3 wheels for less drag. (per your own quote)

I feel sorry for your son. What lessons have you taught him about basic competitiveness other than winning is everything. ??????

sometimes losses or being in 2nd or 3rd place teaches you more about "life" in general.

he's 6 years old!


As a Kid, I'd rather lose and learn, then win with a father that gave me that win without earning it.......

Just my 3 cents worth.
