Before I could reply, (pg.6, post 51) you deleted all that I just mentioned regarding said car. There are more than a few here who caught that post, and we would like to hear about the 1/4 mile performance of your car again, along with those details that you previously stated in post # 50, page 5.... Regards. WJ

What's specifics are you interested in? It doesn't run 9.5's nor did I say that. It run's 9.9's. It is on street tires, I drive it a ton of the street when it's nice out. It runs on pump gas, and has about 6000 miles on the current engine, not 60,000, I didn't say that. It is a turbo'd 4 cylinder car. What other details would you like? Timeslip? Video? I have both.

I'm not real sure what details you are referring too with post #50 in this thread?

I also don't have any idea what this has to do with anything??

No, that's all I wanted.....a Neon? Thanks. WJ

None, I don't class race. But you have proven that all you need to do to get a grade point is to take your daily driver down the track, so I'm not sure what you are getting at there???

The actual effort to do it. Thats all.

I have a competition license and a ET number?? Does that count?

Sure in my book it does, I hadnt seen anywhere that you said that, and thats why I said "maybe you do" yes it counts in my book.

One day your car will maybe be fast enough to actually need a competition license, but I doubt it.

If it does with the 5.7 Im gonna have a lot more enemies out there Im sure

So keep the personal comments coming, all I did was question a few things and disagree with some of your choices, I've obviously struck a nerve

I didnt see any "personal" comments, none, disagreeing and pointing out you really dont know the situation as much as you claim to thats not personal its simple fact.

You asked technical questions and I gave the details, simple.

Point me to a "personal comment" I made in regards to you.

I thought I have been reserved as usual

Trust me you didnt even come close to striking a nerve, I dont allow others to rent space in my head and I really , truly could give a crap less what other people thing of me, I think youda learned that by now. (I mean COME ON Look at MY HAT !)

I have a life to live, things to handle , and most of my commitments and real responsiblities of which are seldom posted here take enough of a toll that this is all fun and games...nothing more.

I dont mind being the "underdog" its a role Im all to familiar with. It make success that much sweeter.

These are just engines, metal, nothing more, when I am done I will have familiarity with the exact capablities and stresses they are and are not able to handle first hand.

I cannot say these were intentional, but I have grenaded motors on purpose for the very same information, repeatedly, I went a whole year grenading motor after motor, only to build the Highest output motor of its type at the time by a wide margin. So.....who is someone to say my approach is wrong just because its not their approach ? The old man saw it. He knows, first hand, hes been seeing me do it my way for 30 years, I built my OWN first motorcycle from the GROUND up when I was 8, he saw it, and he saw me kill it, and rebuild it, and again and again, and again, he saw me build over a dozen motors in cars, all performing beyond expectations, mine or his, so between us the only person that needs to see results are him. Hes eager as hell for me to build the next motor, we didnt build these bottoms, the only thing hes pissed at is we havent had time to build our own. Now we dont have a choice, I like that.

People in my experience give advice for 3 reasons.

1)Because they are honestly helpful people who wish others not to make a mistake they have made.
2)They would like to do the same things but are unable and would like to participate in the effort by their suggestions and advice
3)Choose to show how much they know by offering "professional advice" with no real goal other than to elevate their percieved expertise (read "Winning by Intimidation" great book that enables insight to people motives)

People choose not to follow a persons advice for more reasons than I can list but here are a few
1)They simply dont accept the source as reliable or qualified
2)They think they may have an alternative approach that is equally valid but takes into account variable the person giving the advice wasnt aware of
3)They belive the advice but would like to see a negative result for themselves and gain information that is impossible for the person giving the advice to communicate
4)They have personal experience in somthing similar that will apply and renders the advice either innacurate or moot.

And on, not all reasons for either are negative, they are human nature.

This is exactly how you are felt from our camp as well dozens of others.

My guess is one of 3 "camps" 2 Ive smacked in public the other well, not so much but there is no love lost.

So if its your "job" from that camp to "follow" and post FUD, so be it, everyone needs purpose in life I guess......

Im just honored I am giving someone a reason to go on

Boasted 23 whatever,

" One day your car will maybe be fast enough to actually need a competition license, but I doubt it. "

Let me get this straight. Drooze has a legal A/SA car and wasn't in the 9's first time out, and you, you have a what ? A turbo something or other with no rules, and you're ragging on HIM?
Oh boy, you keep these forums open to the gp, and you never know who's going to slither into them.

Alright Kenny , Suggestion taken, how do you like my new Signature line ?

[Mike Carr]

Chris, I think Kenny was referring to the boosted guy. We know who Drooze is.

[DK FRAZIER]

Lol...I know....I just couldnt resist showing off my most awesome signature line

I have a feeling BoostedFC22 is one of a "Shill" one of 2 "camps" as he calls them, if you look at his post history there are 28 posts, 26 directed at me, 1 of the others is a For Sale Item, and another is a link to a request for pics of a DP car.....Now, I know that well....lets just say I pissed unintentionally on someone shoes, and well.....since then, and since them calling someone we both know only to have them be told, "You asked for it", and "They should have know better" , oddly Boosted has been there with no other purpose, Hmmmmm, lets see what Challenger he was first to respond to on the pic request......That was his 3rd post.

Could very well be wrong, it is 100% possible that was just taken as an Opportunity and he comes from the other "Camp" in which case I know what I did to piss them off too, so be it, apparently I have that talent. But it really ISNT intentional.

Ive know this for a while, and have decided to "play" with it, some of the info has been good, some bad, Ive even posted a few "illegal" pics on the Flickr site .... well see.....(I am SOoooo waiting for a teardown or "call" for this or that only to see egg land on their face because what they "think" they know dosent hold water) Its a credibility game, my bet you will never know Boosteds real name, or location, or pictures of him and his car in an identifiable and verifyable setting, why ? Because that will give the whole "Shill" away.

If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck , its probably someone trying to pimp you a prostitute duck.
