I take one day of vacation from the intraweb and come back to find this train wreck of a thread.

I am honestly speechless after reading 25 pages of garbage. The constant whining and moaning on this site has got to stop. People can make excuses their entire life but in the end, actions will always speak louder than words.

Let me say this....I think the rear end change that Buschur did was kool and from a reliability stand point a good move. I think it would have been a better move to go with a stronger IRS and there would have been no arguement.

I say we nominate the guru's here on the forum and let them decide or take votes if this should be considered in the current class. We are not kids and are a pretty large community....let the people be heard.

I don't think this should be decided by the person running the list although I'd like to thank him for taking his time to take this on.

Last time I checked this is EVO M.....let the peoples vote count

Unfortunately, you cannot nominate gurus's.. you have to take the opinion of anyone who has a car that can make the top 15 fastest list.. The car is still AWD/4g63/5 speed and an evo.. When the 1st car that got cut to pieces made the #1 spot nobody cried.. That was altering the car as much as anything.. so why the debate now??

I'm n ot sure either way, but when the fans are in the stands, and that thing runs faster than Joe Blow, the general public is going to say," Look at that EVO!" not look at that outlaw.

That is basically the general consensus on here.. They arent going to strongarm anyone into being out on their own list by themself because they chose to be innovative.. As i have said before, the car is..

4g63/AWD/5speed manual/EVO Chassis

What else is there to it??

Mike none of the other cars have changed major drive line geometry/pinion angle. Have they? gutting a car only makes the car lighter. Yes a lighter car should be faster. Weight is not the issue at hand. A major change in the driveline opens a NEW CLASS. It's a mutt..a half breed...a Crealution not Evolution....live axel is old stuff a real move toward Evolution would have been a IRS from a corvette or something similar

I don't think because you run the list you get to make ALL the decisions of WHO can or cannot be nominated. Doesn't the community count?
Or am I in the wrong forums....let me refresh the page.

You way off base here and i just told paul the same..

I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER WHETHER DAVE IS ON OR OFF THE LIST.. I AM JUST VOICING MY OPINION HERE. MY ARGUMENT IS THIS..

If daves car is on its own list, i beleive street cars should have their own list because i have to compete against sardine cans,, unfortunately there is no way possible to regulate what is and is not a street car.. we all have different opinions and i voicing mine is all. From here on out i wont suggest my opinion and if there is a vote on whether he can or cannot be on the list i will NOT vote. I will sit by and just type in the records as they happen and thats it..

Is that FAIR ENOUGH?? i dont want to lose rights to the list just because of my opinion. I dont have a hidden agenda for the record just my opinion..

Mike I know we live in Fla and sometimes our vote doesn't count....but you should voteI say we vote....it's like practicing at the tree. Since election time is coming up.

Have you seen the story about the guy with Carbon fiber legs....he's supposedly got extra spring in his stride? I wanna say they may let him in the Olympics....so i'm pretty sure you could sneak this by everyone else. For now i'm gonna keep hitting refresh to make sure i'm on the right forum

Sparktech.... why do you give 2 flying donkey dongs about what we run?

You don't have a car competing other than "sponsoring" Paul's tin can so why does it matter so much to you?

Maybe this new rear end setup we did is something else of ours you can copy and ***** out.
