It's Erick, where have I been?

I've traversed the deepest recesses of the mind in an insane asylum and the lived to tell my tail. No, not really.
I became frustrated with racing and I left for a long time. I am not coming back yet. my Computer sucks, and I have crap wheel, and no money, no time, and so on. I just wanted to say hi to everyone so that you know I haven't forgotten about you. How is the racing? It's awesome that you guys are still up and running, and you seem stronger than ever--at least the website would make it appear so.
Where are you Meo?
Take care! Maybe I'll be back on soon, or maybe 15 years from now, one never knows. I'm a ghost.

Hey Bilbo, Steve, Flow and aawil!
It's good to hear from you. How is everyone doing? Do you guys have facebook or anything?
Who are the fastest drivers these days? Who's left? Who's still here?

You remember when I had those back problems and shoulder problems?
I never was able to get that resolved. Now I still have remnents of the problems, but it has gotten better on its own. Genetically, I just have a bad back. But I think my left should nerve problem was created from undisciplined racing--sitting on the chair for a few hours without getting up. I should have been taking breaks! Now I am suffering long-term consequences. Frustrating! I'm such an idiot.

I was pretty cocky back then. I see some of my old posts and I see that I was full of myself. How did you guys put up with me?

I really hope some day I am able to continue racing--either on the computer or in real.
I was kidding that I might not come back and respond. I will keep in touch from now on.

Hey Mario! Good to hear that everything is going well for you and your family! 8)

Feel free to come back whenever you feel like it (we'll soon have the winter fun events going on, good no-pressure racing fun)! Wouldn't it be nice if you happened to come back with Erick! Now, I'd almost be ready to pay to see you two drive against each other! (because if you were to drive TOGETHER, no other team would have any chance :shock: ).

Hi Mario, i will maybe start to construck a seat to driver in the winter. il check back member that post their seats to give me some ideas. i think yours was interesting, buit with ABS tubing is cheap. Wood also, but alot heavier.

Yeah Eric, i work on computer 5 days per weeks + racing sometime on weekends, and you MUST get up at least a MINIMUM of 5 min per hours to walk few minutes (more is better). You need to be seated corectely, no legs cross, back at 90 degree, arms at good level of keyboard, and all our problem with racing with a wheel is having the keyboard at good place.

This week i have torn a muscle on my up left leg, happy that the season is over. But it is recovering good up to now.

Hey Guys, just dropping in to say hi again!
Hey Dutch, hey Mario. So I've never raced with you Mario? I'd love to race with you.
yeah Mark, it would be awesome to come on track with you again. I miss it so much. I still have a passion for racing. Just can't pursue it right now. I miss you guys!
