I tried to be positive about this user, even after he posted in the review forum calling all the cars lame and asking whether anyone drove a fun car. It's true that some people were not very nice, but rather than reply to the helpful comments he called omg a tree hugger a$$ and told everyone to fuc|< off because his car was super cool and used hate speech on others based on the car they drove.
Perhaps many initial comments were not justified, but I don't think he has given us a reason to be very nice now. The guy with the Hummer2 was sincere and understood some negative feelings and when he came back had improved and had good questions and most people lightened up on it. I do want everyone to be nice, but I think it's hard when we don't have much to work with.

A complete list of mods might help us to get you in the right direction.
http://www.gassavers.org/showthread.php?t=2505 is the thread where I talked about it.

And the OP didn't respond to a single one of those posts. All they wanted to do is flame. I agree w/ you on the Hummer post since the OP posted/responded reasonably and there were still a few flames, but the OP&friend here have done nothing but flame after the initial post.

I may frown upon it if we're looking to seriously discuss something, but honestly, it's kinda fun. Like joking around with friends and what not.

Oh shiz, your sig doesn't have shiz to do with your car. Damn, sorry about that, my bad. Now, since I dunno what your ride/background is, I wondering about a few things.
-What are the stats on your ride?
-What's your affiliation with R.P.M. and Ryan Robinson? Coming on to a forum like this and flaming doesn't exactly seem professional, or something that an employee of R.P.M. or ever Ryan would do imo... Not good for the business image and all that. If you are a customer as I'm assuming, I don't think the business would like that association, and if you're an employee, then damn, I wouldn't flame while posting all the info of my bidness online. But that just me, maybe you like posting dangerously.

omg, okay I'm starting to understand. I'd agree that he's getting responses based upon his previous post. I had forgotten about the car review post. Consider my beef retracted. And lets make sure we flame the right people.

what the hell.
this thread has gone to crap.
to get back OT: the best way to save gas when you own a gas hog track car is to have an entirely separate daily driver. you save gas and dont have as much wear and tear on the track car.

I work at RPM, Ryan is my boss and a good friend of mine. Me saying **** on the internet, especially this website (AFTER some of you arrogant prick *******s jumped on me), is not going to get me into any sort of trouble if thats what youre getting at. In fact, im pretty sure he would laugh if he saw this thread. We dont exactly "cater" to hybrid vehicles.
Secondly, the specs on my car:
347 LS6 (oliver rods, JE pistons and rings, stock crank), TEC stage 3 heads, T rex (242/248) cam, chevrolet big block valve springs (good to .700 lift) th400 (5k stall) 12 bolt and 3.73's, ARP studs, weld prostars. NX efi dual stage nitrous (150-300 shot), and all the bolt ons (ls6 intake, ported tb, longtubes, etc). car has gone 10.1 @ 130 mph on a 150 shot with a 1.42 60 foot and a 6.4 @ 106 1/8 mile pass. It does have weight reduction done, it weighs about 3400 with me (200lbs) in it. Has quite a bit of suspension (BMR stuff, QA1 shocks, etc)
it is currently down (and will be for the next several months) as it is getting an iron block 370ci motor that will be fed by an 88mm turbo. looking to push about 20-25lbs of boost and make in the neighborhood of 1000whp through the th400 and a 3600 stall. trying to run 8.x @ 16x MPH.
As far as the "muscular oily man" in my photobucket account, Im pretty sure he doesnt have any oil on him, but that is randy couture, the current UFC hevyweight champion. if you werent such a faggot, youd know that. But i wouldnt expect someone that drives a hybrid to watch any sport other than possibly croquet, or MAYBE golf. but im pretty sure golf is even too manly for you. Homo.

dude i dont know what the hell you are thinking but you just bashed half of the people on this site. do you want to get banned? i mean seriously why do you feel like you have to defend yourself on the internet?
i understand you were "attacked" or whatever, but bashing everyone who drives a hybrid is a whole different area.
seriously. are you try to throw fuel on a flame thread?

I know who randy couture is and have for a long time but I still don't keep pictures of him. I sold the muscle cars and bought a saturn. I guess you could say I grew up. I could care less if you have a fast expensive car, I like you still enjoy a muscle car but I figured it out, there money pits. You make a lot of assumptions about the people of this board, I personally tried to ensure your fair treatment. Your responses/post are proving you to be immature and mouthy. Your pointless banter is getting old. Grow up and go back to your economically insupportable world of fast cars.
And as a matter of fact I thoroughly enjoy croquet.
