Greetings,
I really know this world, and I don't believe it would bring any real benefit to Polkadot. I disagree that we should pay for absolutely everything.
I do agree that they should receive some help from us, and for example, we could create the POLKADOT KART RACING TEAM, and the treasury could pay for the kart and the new personalized equipment. But the hotel stays, travel expenses, coaching, and everything else? I think it's too much, it's not right. On the other hand, correct me if I'm wrong, is it MICRO MAX (ROTAX), right? I don't think they need a spare engine since it will be maintained, and even less a spare chassis, considering the type of circuits they race on and the power. In case of any crash or something, they can just realign the chassis and it will be fine.
Imagine if every parent in this community asked for money for their child to become a pilot or to cover their tennis career, it's too much in my opinion. They won't be racing in SKUSA where races have a bit more impact and drivers from all over the world participate…
Please, collaborate with this community, and don't ask for the treasury to pay for absolutely all costs. I would be happy to vote yes.
On another note, my partner Roco, who is also part of this community (ROCOSAPE on Twitter), worked for ROTAX for over 10 years as an official technician for them. Contact him if you need any advice.
This proposal is extremely one sided.
I'm really struggling to see what benefit DOT holders get at all from this, you do not have a media following either. Whilst you are recieving $60,000 USD. to fund a crazily expensive hobby for the foreseeable future?
Good luck with the racing but NAY
