This is supposed to be a racing community and I understand that its winter and some people have nothing else better to do but making personal attacks against the younger generation because you feel NHRA has slighted you in some way, is childish. We're all just trying to have fun here at the drag strip and your negativity is toxic. I ran more races with my Corvette this year and last than you did with yours. I had 9 heads in the last two years and lost 2 of them (both of which were at Indy). I think its time for this Topic to die as the personal attacks are starting to get ridiculous.
Shame on me? Who are you to be telling me that BS? Racing community? Repeatedly giving people crap for getting help along the way? You certainly have become an important little fellow. You don't dictate the terms of discussion out here. What nerve! I have not repeatedly beat on anybody for getting help along the way. I made it very clear that I did not like being told how to invest in my car by a person who was getting a free ride. The free ride thing must have struck a nerve for you. One other thing, this racing communtiy is tired of being taken advantage of by people who run these ringer cars down our throats. I remember you at SEMA fuming about these new cars and the next thing we know you are hooked up with the new cars and have completely changed your tune. It is you and people like you who are taking advantage of the racing community, not me. And there is no way in hell that your little a** is going to tell me to shut up.
