Now thats pretty damn assuming! I dunno what video you saw, but in the one I
watched the only part of either driver I saw that a hand blocking the lens
in the begining. Just because they are driving like assholes automatically
makes them kids?

Thats the kind of bs that is making it hard for younger people in America
these days to get into racing. I won every kart racing championship that I
ever participated in, and finished on the podium in every kart race that I
ever entered, but just because I was "some crazy kid" I couldn't move my way
up into real racing without moving to Europe. Just as I turned 16 the SCCA
started up a program that allowed me to race and even there I was leading
every race that I entered until fouled up by mechanical troubles (new car
that I hadn't worked the bugs out of), until I had to give up because I
couldn't afford it. In my eyes these people who think that I'm just some
crazy kid are who partially caused me to not be able to make it into any
more then SCCA club racing, and now I'm at an age where it's likely that I'm
too old to ever be able to make anything of my skill. All because
stereotypes like you have made it so anybody under 18 can't live thier
dreams.
