Calm down, Twinks. The A/Ts that are used in Sportsman classes are used because they are more consistent. The "A/Ts" used in the Pro classes are not really A/Ts.

Pretty much the same thing that you said only shorter.

BTW, I rebuilt my Powerglide when I was 17 and it really wasn't that bad. T-350s and T-400s aren't that bad either.

hope "the man" doesn't include a refund from the State. California's Treasurer said NO MORE refunds. (seriously, they're out of money)

What Twinks, you don't recall the Vaseline used to hold the check ***** in place until you could get the tranny back together?

Hmmm?

Lemme "fix" it then, swoope:

I would request that the admins/mods leave the thread alone. BHR does not engage in censorship of our critics and we are not afraid to confront criticism and/or controversy.

That said;

Any of you LV clowns want to put your money where your mouths are? Remove yourselves from the **** of your favorite vendor, outfit your cars with everything they can provide you, and decide where/when you want to lay your titles on the table. I will call Speed Channel and we can settle the regional grudge match at the racetrack of your choice. Rich will make a special episode of "Pinks" and we can all be TV stars. We can match up cars with similar mods and see who knows what about the RX-8.

At the very least we at BHR, and those with whom we associate in the PHX area, are able to buy parts for our own cars using our own money and we are able to install said parts using our own tools.

We just took out the worst of it. Unless you really want to keep the back and forth "you're gay!!" "no you're gay!!" stuff.

Not censoring any criticism, just clearing out that off-topic trollfest.

and adding a few names to the 'watch' list.........

Big difference between being homosexual and reducing costs. Of course, BHR can always raise our prices and get individual rooms.

What we all like and what we can afford are yet to meet. Me? I have had enough of the snoring, smoking, plugging up the toilet, crowded quarters, sleeping on a chair, etc. And THOSE were just the guys who came to visit our first night in SoCal!

The only disturbing thing was when flashwing fell asleep on the bed in his shorts and was flashing his "manifold" to the room.

You missed the perfect opportunity to respond with, "This is how we roll!". Or maybe not
