DamageIncRacing 11-02-2002, 06:02 PM HEY JOHNNY BOY!!! I got a favor to ask of you. You know that 2.2L engine thats sitting out in your pole barn? Could you do me a favor and take the water pump off it (there's only four bolts) and bring it to the track tomorrow? I need to swap it with the one on the Laser. AND ANSWER YOUR PHONE!!!:lol: :devil: :D

First off Brian, I never claimed to be a better driver than anyone at the track. As a matter of fact there are quite a few people there that are a lot better than me. Second, when did I say I was in it for the money? I could care less if I win or lose. Its fun. It keeps me out of trouble. Something I don't think you can honestly say. Third, I don't cheat. I never have. Feel free to check any part on any of my cars. the correct arms are in the correct cans. The only bearings are in the wheels and hubs. All the winds are on the motors. The proof is out there that "cheaters don't win". Or if they do they get caught.
And finally- I started the "Long Haired Hippie Freak" thing years ago, so please don't take credit for it. I don't care if you don't like the fact that I have long hair. It's your problem, not mine. If you have a problem with it, see me at the track.
P.S. Get anything good from Riders lately? besides riders is a very good hobby shop unfortunately we had a misunderstanding

If it makes you feel good go for it.
Eric,
I am just saying that I dont like it when people feel it neccecary to destroy the things that not only myself but many others in the club have worked so hard for. I know that there were many of us there that spent a week laying that carpet that dont want to see it trached just so one person can get one more lap with there broken car.
More Rules:
5-43: The armature, motor can, and endbell of a rebuildable stock motor must all be from the same motor manufacturer and can contain only components from the same model. No hybrid motors or mixing of parts from different models will be permitted. hey j rod are you referring to me:wave: :wave: :wave:

nitrorod 11-04-2002, 10:58 PM John, sexually.....thats gross......
psycho02 11-04-2002, 11:12 PM Well now I am just checking.
ymike 11-05-2002, 01:21 PM Did they race oval this past weekend.
nitrorod 11-05-2002, 02:58 PM Yeah with a good turn out too.
Phat Dakota 11-06-2002, 09:25 AM Yeah it was a good turn out for oval, and last night for practice as well. There was about a dozen or so people there, more than there was on Sunday for racing!!! Mostly it was our new racers that just joined the club getting in some extra wheel time. I'm glad to see that oour attendance is on the rise
John Warner 11-06-2002, 12:50 PM Andy,
Sorry I wasn't there but I was quite busy in the shop, and believe it or not thought it was Wednesday! I had to pull the transmission and transfer case out of an all wheel drive to change the clutch. And, YOU thought yours was bad, you should see this one. The flywheel is solid blue, there is NO material left on the disc and the pressure plate got so hot it has a 3/8" wide crack in it. I didn't think anyone to destroy a clutch assembly as bad as you did, but the driver of this Mitsubishi proved me wrong!
Can you guess who's car I was working on???????
PS... new record, 3 days!
Phat Dakota 11-06-2002, 01:14 PM Yeah, but how many total cars have I gone through compared to a certain someone?? Let's see: Me-none, Other Person-5, and those 5 were all within about a year!

(1) Oldsmobile... motor, (2) Baretta... motor, (3) Barretta again... motor, (4) Blazer... motor, (5) Escort... motor & wreck, (6) my Blazer... wreck, (7) Mitsubshi... clutch
Total...7
tom konesni 11-06-2002, 01:45 PM That sounds like an expensive learning experience.
I don't by chance know this person do I? Ouch it's h**l to be a father

Motor City Hamilton 11-06-2002, 02:48 PM John - that's not 7 cars, lifetime? That's not all that many for an old guy. :)
Me from current back to first: 4wd S10, 70 Vette, Mazda 626GT, Ford Festiva, Ford Fiesta, Nissan Sentra, Ford Escort POS, Ford Escort POS and a Ford Ranchero. So, that's 9 from age 17 to 34.
Next cars: 2004 C6 Corvette, 1988-92 Honda Civic to Autocross.
Rich Chang 11-06-2002, 03:01 PM Since we're listing lifetime vehicles, here is my short list.
1975 Chevy Nova (high school)
1985 Toyota MR2
1998 Acura Integra
1999 GMC Yukon
1999 Mercedes SLK
1992 Porsche 911 turbo
2000 GMC Yukon
2002 GMC Envoy
The last two are actually leases since I'll never buy a GM car ever again (unless it is a Corvette). I've had the Envoy since July and it is already having electrical problems.
We won't list motorcycles. :p But, if anyone wants a kick-butt Buell X1 motorcycle and a dual bike trailer, let me know.
I'm curious to see Fred Knapp's and John's list of vehicles. Who gets to count the GLRC school bus in their list? :lol:

Phat Dakota 11-06-2002, 04:02 PM Yeah like that car you drove into the tree a half dozen times to cover up the damage you did when you broad-sided the sherif's car and drove off:eek: :eek: :eek:
KawadaKid 11-06-2002, 04:16 PM wow. When will AJ Learn? Maybe he should just buy a tank.

wow. When will he Learn? Maybe he should just buy a tank. That's okay Steven, I'd prefer he didn't because I don't have the equipment nor the knowlede to fix it! Not only that, but I'll bet the local parts house wouldn't have the parts in stock to begin with.:rolleyes:

John Warner 11-06-2002, 07:17 PM Joel Johnson sits down one on one with Trinity owner and CEO, Ernie Provetti to talk about his run at the ROAR Presidency.
JJ - Ernie, what made you decide to run for ROAR President?
EP - My main reasons for doing this are twofold....first and foremost I think we have a great hobby and industry here and in times like this in the world people need a good hobby like this to get their minds off of all the turmoil and problems the world seems to be having. Our hobby is never going to grow without a consistent organization with consistent rules fair to everyone...the racers, the shops and the manufacturers. Everyone needs to win here and I believe they can.
You da man Ernie..... Ernie for president!!!
