mintrucking And drinking and partying :

Mullet brought up about his buddy passin a way at slam fest . i'm sorry to hear that . Dying cause you drink you self beyond your ability is just dumb . he drank him self so much he passed out and couldn't even wake up to throw up thus causing choking to death .There is MORE to this life style then partying and drinking and drugs . There is ALOT of that going on and it seems thats what draws people to shows any more ..NOT true enthustists (sorry mullet this is in no way pointed directly at your boy) seem to come to the shows cause they hear about the rave reviews of the NIGHT life and partying . BUT what about the show ? Seems like when ppl come back from shows all they do is bitch about how the show sucked but then perk up when someone says hey man that party at (insert show here) was the sh*t !! I'm going back next year . Drinking leads to destructive behavior with people who don't know how to control thier actions while under the influence . Theres a BIG possiblity that one of north east's shows thats been around for a good 10 years may be gone cause of idiots who like to destroy things . Why do you think the number of shows decrease every year ? Jason (drpdmazda ) can tell you what i'm saying is true about the possibility of loosing this north east show .. i just don't get it why can't ppl just hang out and relax with some buddies and check out trucks while at the hotels ? If You need entertainment at nite i 'm sure you can find entertainment with out breaking property . I'M REALLY disgusted with this and no its not just the young newb's to the lifestyle its the older gen in the lifestyle as well . We LEAD BY EXAMPLE lets do something about it to change this !

this is parts of the reason why shows are getting more and more money to attend and setup . and why you see your hotel costs go up -People need to grow up and learn to say when when it comes to drinking . This lifestyle does not need drugs nor drinking in it - we should be a big family we are all in this for 1 reason we love modified vehicles young or old .Don't it make you feel good when you pull into a show and some one says hey nice truck ?! i long for the day when ppl just come up and say nice truck how long did it take to do that? or Can i see it go up and down?? I THINK its fun to watch a little kids eyes light up when you air up and air out make the truck dance side to side .. we need to make this perminate and not a temp fix - we need to elimate the bad apples if it means squealin on your buddy for drinking and driving or for busting up something so be it - he deserves what he gets for destroying something. AND IF they must drink take their truck keys away .1 less drunk on the road driving .

i say this from past experience as i lost my father to a drunk off duty cop of all people (someone who's suposed to know better , one who's suposed to up hold the law)


SORRY for the rant the drinking in the lifestyle just reached its peak with me and it bothers me and hearing aboutthe guy die cause he didn't wake up to puke took it over the edge .

Anything to excess usually leads to bad outcomes-drinking,speeding,eating,smoking,sc--wing all come to mind.Most folks on this site are young and still feeling their oats.When I was a teen-ager I thought I was bullet-proof.When I joined the 82nd Airborne I found out I wasnt,the hard way.Moderation in all things seems to be good advice to follow, but when u r young, that doesnt make too much sense. Happily most of us survive-tragically some dont and theres the pity. BJ

Exactly!!

I did it all, not even going to shows and stuff, but I drank, drove, smoked pot, drove, had sex...alot. It's an extremely destructive path that can/will affect your life forever. As men, who are fathers, (I'm not), it is our duty to teach the younger ones it doesn't have to be this way! It isn't the "normal" thing to do! It's the stupid childish thing to do. You wanna grow and be a man, be willing to stand apart from your friends and take their idiotic rhetoric because you're not being stupid and drinking, or other destrucitve things, with them. Others will follow your example!

It takes one person to make a change! Or else it could be your buddy next time!

One of my friends died the same way about a year or so ago. He wasnt at a show, he was at a party. So whether its a show or a party people just need to slow down and take it easy.

there is nothing wrong with sex unless you are stupid and don't wrap it before you dip in the pot . Now there is a point about sex that if you screw around you just become a male/female hoe . AND ARE KNOWN. if you do things wisely theres nothing wrong with sex . what bothers me is the drinking and drugs thats the main things that bother me.



as for me - i don't do any the above .. no sex either lol but thats another story .lmao.

mike.

well im just gonna say for all the diehard live day to day by the book(mini truckin) mini truckers that is really all its about is the party iv partyed with Oliver(domination the video bitches)and Ernie (lo life video) Johnny O (street trucks) the crew from IF customs, all the shows are for are to get away from life and hang out get drunk with your family and fuck a bitch i mean yea shows are a family event in alot of cases but thats why there is no familys at the after party, dude that died at slamfest 06' s very unfortunate and all of my sympathy goes out to his family and homeboys, but he died livin the lifestyle to the fullest R.I.P brother

lol what a reply!

The alcohol,drug and party aspect of the minitruck scene has absolutely no impact on me. I don't do any of that. I'm in the scene for the laid back people and the cool rides.

You don't need to be stupid to have a good time.

To each his own, live it like theres no tomorrow.

Live it the wrong way and there will not be a tomorrow-or if there is u will not like it.BJ
