    Let's not start that argument again. I barely know any of the parties involved, so it's none of my concern...

    RSD is an event for people to RACE and PROVE who's worthy of winning some $$$. If you cant take the heat....stay out of the kitchen.
    That's your problem you think it's not a race unless you mortgage your house on the outcome. Sorry, gambling is not my vice of choice. I love to line em up for a little friendly action, but guys like you turn it into fight. Race for $10, race for a beer, race for the hell of it, race for a burger, plenty of fun involved and it's not hot lapping.

    I have to agree. Big money races may draw spectators... but little or no money races draw more racers. The vast majority (shoot... all) of street races I have been involved in have been for fun. I thought the primary purpose of RSD was to get the racing off of the streets and onto the track? Well, that's not going to happen if you give everyone the impression that you have to be a big-ballin-big-spendin idiot to race.

    Where's the incentive to newcomers? That's primarily why I've never gone to an RSD because the impression I get is that I'm going to just end up being hustled for a couple hundered dollars. You can have the big money races without stepping on the little guys. Otherwise you're just cutting off potential customers (not a very sound business plan).

    Furthermore, it seems to me that there are PLENTY of events for people running FAST-ASS cars. What seems to be lacking are events for those that don't have the 7,8,9,10 second cars. I laughed my ass off when I saw the new "True Street" competition at GLD. Give me a break. More like "True Track".

    think its easy to run 8.20 or close to it?? Think how much it cost to go 8.20 then think how much more it cost to go in the 7s and how much extra time in testing..

    where did I say it was easy...

    I know you have a hard time reading scotty, so you might have missed where I wrote 40k engines, as in $40,000

    if you could decipher that i meant it costs a shit ton to run that class, and that it isn't exactly "entry level" anymore, then I don't know how to help you

    I will still stand by my statement that it's an 8.20 bracket class since a GOOD portion of the cars are going quicker and then just letting off. YOU know that. Or they are jetted for easy passes. It's like mark's combo with a big a/w and an F2 going in the 9.50 class. How hard is it for him to run that number? Not very.

    What are you talking about? He *DID* finish it...got paid in full with an extra GRAND to boot! Stupid FURO lost out on a $20,000+ deal because he LIED and he HACKED my car. Harolds loss = Trick Chassis gain.

    Josh just didnt want to do the headers and fuel cell.... No problem, Sound Performance stepped up to the plate and in a matter of 2 DAYS we have gotten a ton of work done. Headers and fuel cell will be done this week...after that, Legend Racing will fire it up....and WHAH-LA... I'm racing again.

    The best part is, the guys in IL have no problems answering the phone, ordering parts, working late and staying on the job until it's done...... PLUS, they dont treat me like an ATM machine when they need to pay their bills either. The welds that their guy does is UNBELIEVEABLE .we compared them to the "harold welds" from my one useless header he made... LOL!!...I'll be nice and *NOT* post pics of the comparison. I dont want to be accused of starting trouble. I'm just stating a fact. BTW, they dont lie to me or make promises they dont keep either.


    If you have something to say, then say it. Please dont do the typical wisconsin "I know something but, I wont say" crap.

    I'm from Chicago, we have no problem speaking our mind and telling the TRUTH. We dont walk on eggshells to avoid "offending people".

    I understand that Furo is a sponsor of true street, I think thats great for TRUE STREET.

    I was his CUSTOMER and he ****ed -> me<-

    I am tired of hearing about how I work at the track and he's a sponsor....ect. This has *NOTHING* to do with GREAT LAKES DRAGAWAY in any way, shape or form....and I cant help the fact that I am a "high profile" customer and this might tarnish his reputation. He should have thought of that before he screwed me. What happened to me affected my LIFE, my ability to promote my event.. which, in a small way, affected my ability to make money to feed my family. Not to mention, the *ADDED* cost to put my car back together.

    How did his shoulder surgery (that he said he needed but never got) work out?

    Hmmmmmmmm?


    I rest my case. this part of this topic is over. Let's keep the convo to RACING. There's been enough free advertising for that guy plus, thats not why I started this thread.

    Fine, I'll accept your offer. I'll even try to come up with a fair, yet, safe (for you, personally) race. We are greatly mis-matched but...I'll come up with something creative.

    we've heard of the tennis ball, maybe the 3 iron would be better? lol, ok, maybe that is a little bit ridiculous. I cant hit straight to save my ass anyway, I would end up starting in th woods or out on the return road.

    Kick a basketball (from the starting line) and start where it bounces first?
