So, another stuntwarz has passed and more people are pissed off. There are various reasons for this anger, and here is mine. I know this will sound like a rant, and some of you dbags will say i'm wining and yada yada, but I don't really care.

The seed of my hatred began when my when my teammate, Sick Trick Rick, made it to the finals of the endo comp. Naturally, I was ecstatic for him, but when I tried to get some video footage and pics, for our future video, I was a little less enthusiastic.

I was wanting to go down into the pits so I could get the best footage possible. I was told that wouldn't happen and then I went around asking people like guru and mikey Nicely if there was any way I could get down there. Of course they said, good luck, but I doubt it. I was informed that I had to apply for a media pass more than 3 months in advance. I don't know if they charge for it, but like everything else involved in stuntwarz, I'm sure preference would have been given to the people that can financially benefit stuntwarz the most.....so **** the little guy, being me!!

Because I couldn't go down in the pits, I tried to ride the fifty up to the grandstands to get footage. Just like the kid who got escorted out, I couldn't take my fifty in. So, I get up on the gate and get some shots of the endo practice. Then a security guy tells me I cant stand on the fence or in front of the bleachers and that I have to stand behind the SIDEWALK. As you can imagine, standing behind a pathway constructed for peope to walk on, isn't the best spot for a man with a camera. More than 100 peope walked in front of me in a 2 minute period. Not to mention, I was filming a rider 500 feet away, through a fence, at this point.

Then, I move to where I can actually videotape, and some jackass wining about how he paid too, is telling me to get out of his way. I then move down the way, in between the bleachers, and a douchebag sitting in a ******* kawasaki mule, says, "I've been here for two hours man, could you move?" I pretty much turned around and gave him a peice of my mind. (sidenote: I couldn't have a fifty up there, but a four seater kawasaki mule is OK....wtf?????) Finally, some cool people in the bleachers said I could sit there and video my teammate for his 4 minutes of fame.

Bottom line is Stuntwarz doesn't give a **** about any others involved. They are worried about making money, and that's it. I know the object of business is to make money, but when THEY GET ON THE MIC AT THE END OF THE DAY AND SAY THEY APPRECIATE EVERYTHING AND THIS IS ALL FOR THE RIDERS AND THE PROMOTION OF THE SPORT, that is BULLSHIT!!!!!!!!!!
