Blown rotors
Came across this pictures thread on ausrotary.com (great rotary resource) a few weeks ago that I thought I'd share since we're posting pics & vids..
http://www.ausrotary.com/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=169908
Those Australians seem to know their rotaries! We all know about what the Puerto-Rican's can do with the rotary, but I recently heard right from the lips of a Puerto-Rican rotary tuner setting up shop locally that they feel the same way about the Australians.
P.S. Anybody know who Ray is talking about from here in point #1 in this post: https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...&postcount=267 -- Just curious.

Jesse, you could have asked me about that, and all the other stuff I mentioned, last night. The truth is that nobody on this forum really cares to have their perceptions, whatever they may be, challenged and I am not interested in making people uncomfortable just for the sake of being truthful.

It wasn't me, however I did get turned off by BHR and have not really had any interest in buying from them, but to call it a boycott would be a little exaggerated.

The feeling is mutual, Gleyner, and the term "boycott" was used by those who PM'd me with their admonitions. That was THEIR word, not mine. BTW, refusal to do business is a two-way street.

Let's leave the 'boycott' discussion for another thread, this thread is to discuss the Pettit SC.
If you insist on discussing CHR or Ray by name, he is entitled to come here and defend himself.....

Yeah, Greg, I saw that. I quoted you only because yours was the last post to address that particular issue. So, what am I being accused of that requires self-defense? Anybody know? I certainly don't........

Stealth is the one that turned the term from discussion to defend not me,,, Instead of focusing on the singular word the messege remains that if anyone is discussing you, your bussiness, or your colleages you are invited to discuss, defend or whatever as well...
Im not accusing you of anything,,,
Ask him...

Actually, the real issue is that "joff" linked a post of mine to this thread and that was what brought BHR into the fold here. I am not interested in continuing this particular discussion, nor do I have the time to, because I have nothing to worry about as regards how I run BHR. There are those who choose not to do business with BHR, who may choose to dislike me or certain members of my "team" on a personal level (which is fine and their choice), and so on.
Despite whatever disagreements many of us may have I still desire to be friends with whomever chooses to be friends with me around here as I recognize that e-drama is quite different than personal reality. That's just how humanity is, sometimes.

Two-way street indeed.
What turned me off specifically (not just Jeff being a total *******), was your claiming that Brice had infringed on your copyright for the ignition coil harness; a move I found quite greedy, amateur, and ignorant, but that's besides the point.

1)I wasn't quoting you in the use of the word boycott, was just saying that boycott is not a proper term in my own decision to not buy from BHR.
Two-way street indeed.

I am glad we are both happy.
I admitted to having over-stated my position during the drama I started about the harnesses and I publicly apologized to Brice for that. BTW, he is not innocent on other issues for which he has never issued a "mea culpa" to BHR but that is all old news. Further, Jeff and I do have a pending-patent on those harnesses and we are about to file for the full patent. The bottom line there is that you seem to think it okay for infringements, whether legal or simply a matter of ethics and politeness, to happen and given the political discussions you and I have engaged in recently I see no contradictions on your part. Again, I respect that.
However, if developers of new product somehow come to believe that members of the RX8Club see no problem with intellectual property being exploited, and possibly stolen in the worst cases, don't be surprised when the furtherance of problem-solving and development of new product ceases around here.

So how about them superchargers? I love some of the descriptions I've read and the way torque is distributed. What I want to know is what is the most power and torque that has been achieved with the Pettit SC thus far, and is Pettit working on something to deliver more?

Two things happened with the "boycott" matter; 1) The first guy actually used the term. 2) A second, and most recent guy, tried rallying several people to not do business with BHR. By definition, that is an attempt at a "boycott". Your decision to not do biz with BHR is based on your own individual decision and I respect that.
I am glad we are both happy.

Well, my disappointment came from knowing that there is nothing patentable about putting together COTs components in a manner that would seem obvious to a non-expert like me. I think you have a different definition of intellectual property than the rest of the world. Otherwise I totally agree with you, but until you produce an actual instance of infringement, you're just blowing smoke up our collective asses. ::

I changed my mind on the un-sub. The drama is as compelling as an episode of "The Real World".
Like you posted elsewhere, Greg, the RX8Club IS Black Halo's website. Thus, I spend all my time marketing through it and helping others to achieve their individual goals.
