To be honest, its all part of this bloody nanny state. To many 'do gooders' if you ask me.
Yeah your 16, but your still a kid at heart and kids mess around. Ok at this age your expected to start showing some sort of responsability, but I don't know any 16 year old that is responsable.

The ban is a joke. No doubt the people that banned you used to wonder round the streets and fields messing around with air-rifles. i know i used to..........get shot at by people carrying them in the woods.!

Next the gov. will say its illegal to actually have fun, because it may offend some old lady as you walk past her in the street, thus giving her reason enought to sue you for millions because you happened to laugh in her presence.

This country is falling appart.
I blame the yanks for all this 'blame and claim' crap!

come on lads
he (josh smaxx) was shootin bb gun in the pit area where there is 4 children age between 6 to 13 year old plus 20 adults or more but josh have shot 2 people which they complained as i was there at the time .
At the time my son 6 year old was around but if my 6 year old boy walk into line of bb into his eyes this is serious situation! which i told josh twice that it not allow but he still doing it as i am not a committee of trcc as i myself a member of trcc which i felt ban him is fair !
accident can happen in serious way !

At the end of the night there was more than 8 bb balls was fired into pit area and couple more in the racing track
this is unacceptable !

but again josh stand up for him self and admitted his stupid.

i have to say i was not there but i agree with the above, there is a time and place..................... though a ban is in my opinion too much, flogging with nettles would have been more suitable

I dont think anybody has condoned what josh has done but i have seen it happen myself at events and nothing done about it. I remember one time one fella was shot in the nuts at point blank range whilst stood on the rostrum

It is dangerous yes but i really dont think josh would have fired it anywhere near children or towards someones eyes. I still think it is an overreaction.

Now i wonder who you're talking about there

I got banned from my local club for a week, along with Doddy, cos we had a wine gum fight whilst we were marshalling. Bans like that are more than enough to do the trick.

I think a few of the people who have been criticising TRCC's reaction when they were not there should maybe have a good read of what racdeaf has written here.

Frankly, oople-experts, you should be ashamed of yourselves.

Get off your high horse please. You have jumped to a conclusion, be bold enough to accept you have made a mistake.

Two people got shot according to racdeaf (who was there, you were not). How on earth is it for you to arbitrate whether or not they got hurt?

Josh acted like a knob. That much was clear before racdeaf wrote. Noone here was condoning it, just commenting on the harshness of the sanctions.
The reaction is still too harsh and someone could have just taken it away from him at the time and had stern words with him. A ban for the next race would have been appropriate as well. But to have someones BRCA membership revoked is a joke.

The thing that gets me is that the UK seems to be working it's way slowly but surely towards an american way of taking single incidents way too seriously...

Makes you think what anarchy must have ruled back when we were kids...

Yes and josh told me they got shot, in fact it must have hurt them so bad that they were scared to say anything until josh had left the club.
Bloody touring car drivers
