    Except in STL weights aren't realistic and they can't make competitive power in STU...

    Its much more realistic that "I" dont have a smarty phone. The book is easy for my 5th grade mentality to use. It means more to throw the book at him then a phone,phones cost more.

    The ST conversation was way too heated over there,figured you could take a lite jab Greg Besides,you and I have gone over this already,dont need too again.


    Dan,who hnags with IT guys cause Prod guys are way too uptight.

    I keep a jump drive in a padded non-magnectic container attached to the roll cage isolated from vibration. On it are pdf's of all my car manuals, technical papers, GCR, supps, tech memo's etc.

    Several years ago I put in a request to replace my Sportscar subscription with Fastrack. Granted it's a pretty dumb request since Fastrack by snail mail is old news, but the point was it is something from the club that I'll actually read. Seems that's not an easy request... I can't count the number of past due invoices for $0.00 I've received on this issue. Maybe I should mail a check for that amount and see what happens when they try to cash it.

    BTW, according to 1.2.2, the electronic version is the only official version. The printed one is now paper for the bird cage....

    See Dan? get yourself a better BOSS!



    I'll agree with the OP. I really never read the Sportscar mag any more. I got annoyed at the 'lite' treatment they gave to subjects. Always taking the corporate line. The Head and Neck restraint article sealed it for me.
    And the calenders. It's cool because they always have pictures of far away and distant lands, and of things I can not be a part of. Although I'm pretty typical of our thousands of members.
