Yeah we do BS a TON on this thread. it's our catch-all for all things, Tech, looks, and more often than not just BS(as apparently you noticed). Coming into it thinking that it's some tech mecca will get you through the first 10 pages and about 100 of frustration

Look, the animosity between the forums is pretty stupid. I actually like/lurk quite a bit over at s197. I don't contribute because I know such a fraction of what technical info is over at s197. I don't think anyone here says or thinks they "know all" or more than the peeps over at S197. We're normal joes beating on our cars.

The Shaftmasters deal sucked and we said **** only because the guy that did right by us gets the shaft really hard on that site. It blew up from there. We did, however move on. I know I haven't and likely no one else there has started crap again. If they have...... well we can't really stop them just like we can't stop anyone coming over into our sandbox either.

Oh yeah. GM sucks (Corvette too George, Bill)

We should all be beating up on GM's & imports - not each other...
you gonna be @ Irwindale tomorrow. I am dying to see your car run.

If/when I get my Vette, no more clubs or Forums for me. It'll just be me, Jed, and George looking at our cars and having a brew!

Run any 3V lean on the top end, let it knock/detonate, and you'll be losing your paycheck as well as your engine....they ain't like the others.

Thank you... well said!

My engine is neither lean on the top end, nor does it detonate due to the very conservative tune.
