Bill you are amazing you werr amazing.. if anyone says different, they are crazy.

Tay told me someone wrote something like, youd be bitter too if you had talent like that and no one has picked you up.

Bill... You never cease to AMAZE ME, to be honest, you were the only one out there that had me on my toes. There were great driveers out there, but no one that went in like you, did what you did. You have every right to be proud of that. The night I finally slid for the first time, I wouldnt shut up... it feels so good.

All the sheit talking is really pathetic also. I dunno who was talking crap and its doesnt matter to me but. If you do rip on people, your first reaction is to say how someone is doing it wrong, thats ok everyone does it. but to make it better, goto the driver and ask 2 things: what are you doing at that point? and would you like me to ride along and/or give pointers? SERIOUISLY if you cant do this it boils down to either (A) no one helped you so your not helping them (B) ya dont care about the scene, but just your props/recognition. (C)you're scared they might eventually get better than you.... this is stupid because only so much can be taught, driving is a feeling, not a lesson learned.
i dunno what u said and i dont think you really were dissing as much as jsut stating why they messed up. but i think if everyone did offer help even like 1/4th of the time we'd all be better off... i actually learned some from riding with Regina about my own style by trying to help her. i hope there isnt anyone straight dissing people and im sure you weren't.

PLAY BEER!

Now, there are some people that ask for it. Certain people that claim to be amazing drifters, etc, and get out there and embarrass themselves. That's how you get the shit talking, in my opinion.

Also, if it was constructive criticism coming from Bill then there should be no problem. It's not really his job to help people if they bragged about being so good and showed nothing.

Now if they were like me, and KNEW when and what they did wrong and admitted it, they don't really deserve the harsh criticism. They do deserve the help. And I am SOOOO SOOOO grateful that an amazing driver like Jason (boxmod) could help me. So thank you again!

Just to let you guys know, Bill isn't the only one that deserves recognition and isn't getting it. Jason tore up that entire track and hardly anyone even said "good job" to him. There are others as well. Maybe it is because he's only driving a SOHC 240sx hatch. Who knows, but his driving skills are definitely overlooked.

If you think you're really good, get a video of yourself doing the amazing things you do and write letters, send the video out, etc. Some people I know just got sponsorships by writing and sending pics!

ALSO, btw, just to let you know, Bill, Tyler (Squints) is only 15 and couldn't drive. They wouldn't allow the waiver for team 15. Heh... when he's sixteen he BETTER drive along with the rest of them. The ones I've seen are pretty damn good (def. better than me hahaha) and have much potential!

Ok here's my feeling. Bill- I first met you at DDAY1 and my first impression of you was during the drivers walkthrough when you were talking very loudly about how gay 240's were and how so many people had them and this and that. I was like, oh well, thats his opinion and he must have a Corolla or something different. Then I see you driving one and I was like WTF? You tore it the fuck up though, if I had to vote for the best driver that day, you would be it. But what you said, and the way you said it stuck with me. DDAY3, again you tore it up, again, I have no beef with your ability, I think your great at driving. But when you jump around beating your chest screaming "I am the man" or whatever it is you said, I think it just makes people feel a little self concious about their abilities, or lack there of. And makes you seem extremely cocky. I didn't persoanlly hear you say anything derrogatory about other drivers so I can't comment on that, maybe it happened, maybe it didn't. I for a fact know atleast two drivers who will not go to these events because they do not want to be ridiculed people who like to voice their opinion out loud without any disregard for how it makes others feel. And Im not saying your the only one.

I guess I have always felt that you let your abilities do the talking, and the better you are, the more humble you are. But hey, I have no beef with you, you are who you are and there's no reason to change for anyone. Good luck, I know a sponsorship isn't far out of your reach.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
