RE: Rocking the boat
Robbie, I agree with Mike, David and a few others. If it were me, I wouldn't take it to a board meeting.
I'll be the first to admit that I don't like a lot of rules, and at our field, we have a freq board, but it is rarely used. But then, it's rare that we have more that 3 or 4 guys at the field and it's a lot easier to say "Hey Billy, what channel are you on?"
On the other hand, when I go to an event at another field, I always pay close attention to the rules.
But when it's just "the guys" it's nice to relax the rules - however it should not be done at the risk of injury.
Had I been in your situation I would have said, "Hey (Insert name here), let me know when you're gonna do that! You almost killed me!!!"
If you do that, you'll become "One of the guys" instead of, "That guy who ratted us out"
