In it self nothing. But when someone uses that as an example to try and bash others who have already broken into the 9's around the same mph it makes the basher look stupid.

It was trashed because many people here can't discuss topics like that as adults and threads with those subjects pretty much dive into a flame fest and pissing match from the second they're made.

Listen why don't you shut up and talk to me about your jealousy.

The reason I don't drive my car is the same reason as other people, because I want to get the best ET and MPH out of my car without having to go through so much trouble as others. When I ran 11.0 @ 138 in 2005, I blew the rear axle so the car coasted to the end of the 1/4 mile And at that moment in time I made a decision to benefit my pocket and the car. I realized I needed someone who had better driving skills. I show my skills by building the car and all the R&Ds. That doesn't mean that I can't drive the car. Before Oscar drove my car, I had two other great drivers. So stop making stupid remarks without knowing what you are talking about.

This is ridiculous.

Get over yourself Eddie. You have nothing for me to be jealous about. I'd be ashamed to claim accomplishments with my car when not even being at the track when it happens. All the credit with your car goes to CFT, not you.

Procco is still really involved with his car... He is a really busy man and that is one of the reason we got involved in this project. Doesn't mind getting greased up to work on the car and every chance he gets try to enjoy his car.

On a succesfull race team there are a bunch of roles that are extremely important and without one the other doesn't exist... Owner, mechanic, driver, assistants, sponsors, etc etc... and everyone needs to shoot for the same goals ...

So In our team, everyone involved can celebrate and take credit for every goal reached and the future ones as well...

So don't worry so much about Procco and worry about your car and your goals..

We are here to celebrate each others goals not to put anybody down... At least that is what I thought this forum was all about...

Sincerely

Serge@CFT

Your team mate/car owner should take your advice. The last two threads he got involved in were locked/deleted due to him insulting other members.

Its been noted and I'm pretty sure he will also will try his best not to get personal from all the criticism some people have...

Instead of trying to upset people lets try to give props and do constructive criticism...

On how we can be better drivers, mechanics, etc, etc...

Can we all just get along.... hahahahahahahahaha

My first props of the day goes to Brian Most Wanted on the 9.0's Awesome driving and great work by AWD Motorsports, good luck..

thanks

I was looking for that thread this morning. I never posted in the one that was taken down or locked. It was set up for failure as soon as it was started, I agree with that one! haha

I don't drive my own car either, I suck. It was funny to me that the guy with the most 8 second passes in an EVO was left off the list though, also the first to ever do it.

I'm more interested in a guy who can run round after round after round within a tenth of each pass than I am a guy who makes one fast pass a month too.

Stop the hate! hahahaha

Pretty much this.

The poll was the "best" Evo driver, not the fastest. Humans being human, everyone came into the thread with favorites, biases, and apparently with a chip on their shoulder. There were at least half a dozen people who were completely out of line with their responses in that thread.

So, just like that one, this one is closed.
