You're taking a lot of this out of context, and personal. You shouldn't as you were not the one that stirred the pot. I'll keep an eye open for you and stop by if I get the chance. You do the same, anyone is welcome in my pit. You will find that the ecm boys will be friendly with ANYONE that stops by as well. relax and look forward to a good time.

- 2 years ago we made the tow (this is not meant to poke Lil Jack, it's just how the day went and I've been on the other side enough to know what it can be like) and ran some 8.40 times @ over 168 in BRUTAL heat and humidity skating the tires well into second. Several tenths and by memory 8 mph faster than Jack. Admittedly, because we race at night and this isn't my day job I couldn't figure out how to put the power down on a sun beaten hot slick track and most of our passes were aborted. If that is what you mean by performance when i show than I guess you can bust my balls! - I am also quite certain we were the only car there faster than high 9's that drove to all the exhibition events, drove to the start and from the shutdown lanes, never put a battery charger on except to crank the car for valve settings and run the fans after passes. The only one with big fans and an alternator to run them. We could have changed the tires and driven to town for a burger! - 2005 we put down an 8.61@161 on unleaded 93 octane fuel in front of the whole world dispatching a host of bigger money, professionally built non-Pontiac cars with this pile we built all by ourselves in my home garage. Since then, until recently, our Top Dog status was as close to undisputed as you could get! - All of our tracks have been closed for 9 months and may not open for some time to come. So maybe ease up on the rhetoric (words intended to make a point) and give a brother a break! All things come back around but don't throw me under the bus because you have a beef. Off to church to pray for patience ;-). See you later!

But NOW Jack has picked up his game and has run a 7 second time. 4 tenths faster than your Norwalk time so people, as I said before, want their Flag Bearer, to go 7.70s or quicker at Norwalk. But the Flag Bearer does not make the trip. So not busting your balls so much as responding to the other camp that wishful thinking for some 7.70s from Robin at Norwalk is not going to happen. So you are out west with your program doing your thing and the other camp would like for you to be at Norwalk to defend their head. I say get a bunch of those guys together (including the head guy) and have them sponsor your trip out next year. You take the time and they pay for everything else. If they want you to be their Mule, put up the money. That is my opinion on the deal. Otherwise the other guys are just internet bantering. Quote:
You have your whole deal scienced out. I saw the same in 1998 when the Keens were required to complete a 30 mile drive (in the early Super Street event days) and then run at the track. They could do that drive and still run high 7s at the time with their 347 cid supercharged Mustang. They could also "bracket race" their car (to with-in a few thousandths every pass) and could drive it on the street for extended periods of time so I believe every word you have posted there. Quote:
Your engine is set up to run in heat, so that should not be a big deal if it is hot at Norwalk. Same deal for the altitude difference. So the only issue I am hearing is a bit of tuning for daytime Norwalk track conditions to run some quick 7 second times. And of course getting you and the car here. Quote:
Never had a beef with you personally. Beef (if any) is with the Internet Racers on PY, (I am not a racer PERIOD presently, may never be now that I am old and senile according to some) I just ask questions that the alternative head boys have a hard time answering something. So again, I apologize for the appearance of throwing you under the bus. Was not my intent. Beef was with the Internet boys waving the "IF ROBIN" bs around when it comes to the ECM crews yearly match racing talk. Granddad used to say, "If the Dog hadn't stopped, he would have caught the rabbit too" Sure you have heard that one at some point in your life. So what do you think your package could put down for et and mph on a proper track in good heat conditions on August 3, 2013, Robin? Tom Vaught Hope when you got back from church you said a prayer for me too. I could use a few with all the bs going on in my life the last two years.

Tom,
Is that seriously your best answer??? LOL....... Garlits, Keens... LOL... You missed a few: Johnson does with less cubes and no nitrous! What about Larson?? Besides, my little brother can whip all of you on his BMX! One thing I've learned all these years is if someone doesn't want to respect you it's easy, someone they know is always faster, always cooler!! As for Jack I gave the only exact comparison we have had historically. Any comparison past that in this conversation is simply as ignorant as your suggestion that I had poor showings. I'm moving on from this topic.

Just answer one question Robin: "So what do you think your package could put down for et and mph on a proper track in good heat conditions on August 3, 2013, at Norwalk Ohio, Robin?"
Simple question, not to hard for a guy who says he goes to church. Tom Vaught

Robin said he was off to church. I go to church too, Jim (7T2). So you are way out of line with this statement: "ridiculing someone's faith is WAY past that"
I ask the MAN for an honest answer to my question: "So what do you think your package could put down for et and mph on a proper track in good heat conditions on August 3, 2013, at Norwalk Ohio, Robin?" Right now we are having nice cool weather. Supposed to be that way possibly thru the weekend. So your comments and the village idiots comments are out of line. Robin brought up the church deal in his post. I asked a valid question. PERIOD. You guys are really searching for any little thing to whine about in the forum. Get over it, I like the PY Forums. I plan on being here a long time. The forums helped me over the years to communicate information to a variety of types of people. Some very smart mechanically inclined people to people who cannot wind a toy without screwing it up. Learned to accept genius and stupidity in people's replies. One thing I think that I will always have issues with is people making excuses for stuff. I can live with people making mistakes. I can live with the village idiot (GG) posting about his "communal" engine build process. I can live with Bill's posts, (actually the guys is very talented) just hooked up with the wrong crowd. I see Jeff backed out on his bet with Calvin. No surprises there as everyone is messing around in this race forum. No one should really take anything serious in this forum. After all it is a clone of Yellow Bullet now. Have a great Monday Guys. See you tonight for our little chats. Tom Vaught

If you have too much timing in a motor it will show a high mph while it is hurting itself. 7.94@3460#s > 8.13@3300#s Just sayn

You would think, Jack, if you ran 174 MPH you would have that slip framed somewhere on a wall and could whip a copy of it out of a wallet faster than Matt Dillon on Gunsmoke.
