That is not out of the norm in a lawsuit happy world. As I am not their lawyer I cannot tell you the specific reason for that but what I will tell you is this..... people like to sue, people like to armchair quarter back everybody else's move. Sometimes heat of the moment decisions need made and my crew and myself don't have the luxury of time to discuss a plan or go locate a different extraction tool ect... Accidents are not planned and are never the same and a child cannot communicate with me in a traumatic situation as an adult could nor can they voice to me their injuries accurately like an adult may so in the event they are trapped, pinned in, whatever and I have to make a split second decision based on what I can readily see to save their life I'm going to do what I feel needs done. There have been cases where this has happened and as a result an injury was compounded or an additional injury was caused... but he's ALIVE. So basically its there to try and stop you from trying to sue because I pulled juniors arm out of socket in the process of keeping him from burning to death or I fracture a couple ribs because I gave the best CPR I could to bring him back from a trauma arrest. If you would like to nit pick it and not sign, that is fine and we won't even notice you're not there. If you choose to sign it however...... I will do everything I possibly can to make sure you hug your son another Christmas morning, just don't sue me for making sure he sees another birthday. Don't wanna sound like a dick but yes I've been to court once for an ungrateful bastard that stood and did not think we did enough.3 points

Ok Mags, I may be the only one, but I'll give you credit that when I first started reading your posts, I thought you were an ignorant dumbass like some of these other guys. But, after the fiftieth time of you trying to make your point, I see what you are saying and can understand it. I think it was the driving/vacation thing that did it for me. The only problem is, the world isn't a disney movie, and no matter how much we could hope and pray for all guns to disappear, it ain't gonna happen. Time to move on to what to do now. Another very good point. You are correct. We have gone overboard with the make everything idiot proof and safe for all to use with no training. Some shit is just inherently dangerous to use. Either learn what the hell you are doing, or you might get fucked up. Guns fall in to that classification. You want to decrease the odds of your kids/nieces/nephews whatever of getting hurt by guns? Teach them about them. Let them see them, touch them, use them. Start them young. Don't make the first time they ever see or find a gun to be a scary situation. I have yet to meet a kid who didn't think the first trip to the range to be fun as hell.2 points

what a girly little faggot "omg i just wanna know how this could happen....its such a powerful evil deadly weapon, and it just showed up here".....i especially liked the reference to the dance school next door.....like the little 7 yr old girls in dance class are going to 1. steal this guys package, 2. open it and decide to play with it, 3. shoplift the correct ammo from an ammunition store to use it.......i feel like punching everyone in that video right in the crotch2 points

This is spot on. Education makes all the difference for kids. Take they mystification out of the gun and explain what its capabilities are. Its rather apparent whose parents did this at a young age in this thread and whose didn't.1 point

The scholar has spoken, and has given this thread the flying elbow of learned knowledge. Fuck, man, I'm having a hard time typing I'm laughing so hard. Thank you, seriously....I canceled cable, there was never anything this funny on it. You're a warrior alright. You're fighting logic and reason like a fucking honey badger.1 point

If you have truly been around racing for such a long time, the waiver is typical and pretty standard issue. There isn't a track out there that has anything different. The wording may come across as different, but at the end of the day, all you are saying is that you are participating in a dangerous activity and should your child or "minor" get hurt and as Todd VERY WELL PUT, if he cracks three ribs to keep him breathing, they aren't liable. In other words, racing is dangerous. People die. This ain't table tennis so, every time he suits up, you suit up, friends suit up... You all risk coming back in a bag. The waivers don't mean shit, either to be honest... You get killed and there is a reason why a particular wall was exposed or something happened where they can easily be found liable? That waiver isn't worth the ink used to print it. Carry on.1 point

Regardless of your signing a release or not... that doesn't 100% indemnify MidOhio from being negligent or reckless. A release is a nice document to show in court saying "But he signed the waiver" -- that's about it. All it shows was that you've been instructed and made aware of the danger, but doesn't absolve MidOhio from negligence. In reality, it's not possible to completely absolve yourself (or MidOhio in this case) from litigation via a waiver if the other party has a legitimate legal ground to bring suit.1 point

It isn't me, as my only experience with IM was limited to the one transaction that went south on Tuesday. Not sure how to prove that it isn't me, or if it even matters, but PM me and I'll send you my Tampa, Florida cell number to call. My beef isn't so much that they sold the bike from under me because accidents and stupid stuff happens (although I was pretty salty about it with IM because it seemed like a really good price), it was IM's "f*** off" attitude afterward that got under my skin. That customer service, not IM's mistake in selling the bike in eBay, is what would keep me from doing business there. I'll just add a final note: If IM disagreed with my version of the story, it probably would have posted something by now. It hasn't, and I think that speaks for itself. In the end, things actually worked out for the best for me because I would up purchasing a newer bike with less miles last night from a dealer in California.1 point

is this one of our banned members? Casper has supported the OP in writing this review. Clearly he's open to you writing yours, so please start a new thread, title it "Independent motorsports negative review" and then write clearly and concisely what occurred... simple coming in here all "caps lock cowboy" isn't helping anyone.1 point

D. Use your legs and hands to lean the bike under you just like riding a bicycle. Take a broom stick and hold it like you would the handle bars. Move it to your right and you would go right, move it left and you'd go left. Don't over think it, if you can ride a bike over 10mph it's the same feel and same action.1 point

PC response: It seems like the worst part to all of this is that 5thSFG actually has the time to seek out forums where this dealer is a sponsor and bash their brains out over something so stupid. Did Independent screw you...sure Should they offer you a sincere apology...yes But if this is your biggest problem in life, I would say you are in a pretty good place amigo. Move on with your life and go find another BMW to buy. The deal at Independent could not have been THAT good, anyway. Actual response: Just for the record, I use to work for BMW of North America, and it was cry-baby faggots like you that made the job unbearable. I'm sure if you haven't already contacted BMW of North America to complain, you are likely working on it. And just in case you need the number, 1-800-831-1117. Ask for Jarrod , he's also a cry-baby faggot. People like you give BMW owners a bad name. The sense of entitlement is mind numbing.1 point

sorry that I haven't responed Jason been busy and it looks like I'm tied up again this weekend but I just wanted to point out on your hardshift issue, check the front engine mount and the right side(passenger) engine mount, if those are bad the transmission will have a harsh shift.1 point

The people who run this site do not want you to know that one of its supporters is a scam artist. I have pictures, recipets, and friends testimony that they straight up RIP'd me off. I made mutiple visits to the store AND phone'd them constantly.The moderators have removed previous comments. That tells you the character and the quality of the site itself. Independent Motorsports is a BAD place to take your motorcycle PERIOD!!!!PS: I SEE YOU RIDING ON WEST BROAD BY GIANT EAGLE ALL THE TIME CASPER you little political activist you....-1 points
