Frank,
I am glad you have come back and my comments in this thread were crafted to get just this further debate.
You said in your first post;
�The amount of teams slipping their clutches was a shock to me although when it was obvious what was happening I think that Paul Klaasson and his team made valiant efforts to level the playing field although in reality it was too late. Lubing the clutch to get an advantage for a few laps is one thing but physically altering the shape of the clutch drum is simply illegal and should be rewarded with exclusion in my opinion - one team in particular has perfected this technique - congratulations, you must be very proud.�
You now say �This doesn't mean that all top drivers were cheating (far from it) and I believe that it was only a minority and most of those not in Seniors.�
Now correct me if I am wrong but these two statements do not fit together very well. Your first statement �The amount of teams slipping their clutches was a shock to me���
I certainly did not understand it to mean �a small minority of drivers slipping their clutches was a shock to me ��� and suspect neither did anybody else reading your post!
Now these comments together with your pop at the commentator, I took to be an anti-Super1 post and an attempt to devalue the performance of the majority of Drivers who raced at Whilton Mill, which resulted in my response.
Now if I have incorrectly interpreted your post then I apologize but think even you will see why?
If the events you have described at Whilton Mill do indeed result in drivers being excluded for cheating then that improves UK Karting and the merit of the Super1 championship and it's Scrutineering team.
