1. I was not banned from another forum

2. I've been posting here for 6 years, you on the other hand registered 4 months ago with an agenda, having 3 total posts here to date in the past 8 weeks of which 2 are in response to my replies.

3. if you only had the balls to say to my face what you type on a message board hiding behind a screen name!

WE all know people like you, nobodies with opinions that have nothing and done nothing!!

Don't have a picture of it to post, but this morning Todd Patterson just went 1.270 in 60' at Vegas, foot braking on 9" tires in the 2012 COPO Camaro Stocker I'm helping tune that he is driving for Husky Liners.

quick 60 foot for sure but one would hope that a ~ 3200 lb. purpose built, hand built, $100,000 stocker, whose prototype was designed/engineered by MPR, a car that is nearer to $125,000 going down the track, powered by a purpose built EFI 427 SBC designed specifically for this car, for stock/super and which is the result of 50+ years of R &D and that makes more power than any factory BBC, would be able to achieve that 60 foot.

Not so impressive when you consider that my former ride, a production passenger car designed/engineered prior to 1968, built on an assembly line in early '68, that accumulated over 100,000 street miles before being restified over 2 years starting in late '85 that upon completion, sat under a cover for 4 years before being transformed into a weekend street/strip car with bolt on parts that 6 years ago 60 footed 1.28 off the footbrake while weighing 3880 lbs. and still retaining it's full factory interior including the factory console and staple shifter along with power steering, power brakes, tilt wheel as well it's ALL steel body and bumpers.

BTW, my Chevelle 60 footed/ET the same on 9" radials as it did 10.5".

Now here's a guy with an ego of enormous proportions! I'm surprised you never "hit it big" on Pinks!

I think, mainly, people don't like that you're a cocky asshole.
