   HOLY MOLEY, am i the only non obese person on this site?

   Is that a male or female on the far left?

   I  bet our Aussie and European members don't let themselves go like that!

   I guess thats why the jokes about the guy who brings his restored 440-6 or hemi too the track and only does a 15 or slower, is true. 5000 lb. race weight.

Not sure who you think you are but don't come around here talking crap about our members and a good friend of mine. That stuff isn't welcomed here or any site for that matter. If you want to talk smack about someone either A), say it to their face, B) go post it where all the other small man syndrome posters do, on the You Tube comment fields or better yet, C) show some manners and zip it. If you haven't got anything nice to say, don't. Hopefully a mod or Admin has been notified about your post and snide remarks, personal attacks shouldn't be taken lightly.

This could get outta hand real quick.

I say:

GO FOR IT ! 

You can't really see by the picture how out of shape I am, but I'm not THAT out of shape I'll take crap from anyone.

Eric and I just returned home. We had a great time and was nice to meet so many of the members there today.
One of the nicest cars we saw there was 71340rt's car. No BS. What a beautiful restoration he did with attention to detail everywhere!  :jumping:  :2thumbs:
Sorry Jeff, but your avatar picture doesn't do it justice. You really have to see it to appreciate it.

Eric said he wants first digs if you ever want to let it go! I don't know how he could afford it, but he wants it!  :grinyes:

Again, great to meet all the member's today.

Slotts
Slotts I'm glad we got to meet and talk. I know the signature picture is a bad one and I will try and replace it soon. With the Challenger being a older restoration it is a job to keep it up and still drive it 475 miles one way to the Nats. I'm sure Eric liked my Challenger RT as you just don't see the Gunmetal metalic paint on them or with the stripes and black vinyl top, and interior options. The Challenger is a blast to drive and it got a real workout trying catch up to shelbydogg all the way to the nats. It ran great and was trouble free which is why I drive it everywhere it goes. Thanks for the compliments about my Challenger RT and I'll keep Eric in mind if I ever sell it but after owning it almost 20 years it is like one of the family.

Hello JS29U,
there is no possibility for you gaining even one ounce of class.

Slotts

 :iagree:  Just couldn't believe the audacity of this Newbie. It bothered me so much that I woke up with it on my mind. I don't post a whole bunch, especially in this type of thread but felt I needed to comment.

I met Slotts (first time) on the weekend and it was MY honor to do so. He's sincere, funny, a joker, very intelligent, a class act and the list goes on. When they talk about people that make the world a better place, he IS one of them. He contibutes so much to our hobby and never asking for anything in return; he could be a model for all of us. Even from only meeting him once, if Slotts lets me, it would be my honor to call him friend.

JS29U, I pray that your comment isn't the straw that breaks the camel's back and Slotts decides he's had enough BS, it would be all our loss. Obviously, I don't need to slam you, you showed your true colors and did a pretty good job of it yourself. As far as I'm concerned you've caused too much damage that's beyond repair. Don't count on me for any advice or help.

Just remember, this is the schmuck that was hung up on calling the New Challenger a PIG, and that his Town Car could smoke it.  He's obviously a troubled soul and I guess we should all take pity on his sad condition.

Ask Slotts, I am fatter than him :stirpot:  But I'm a jolly ole man and like to act like santa's helper at times.

I will say that I am blind when it comes to judging people. I dont see color, I dont see dress codes, I dont see fat or skinny. I just make friends. I cant make enough of them. The more the merrier. Looked like a fine group of guys in the picture to me. And also one super good looking truck. I can forgive harsh words, but if you do choose to make fun of people, please chew on me some. I can take it , and would rather you let off on me then super good guys.  Oh and if you really gotta let off steam, I can take a punch. A big punch or three, then when your all worn out, I can pic you up , dust you off , and say

Do you feel better now?  Lets go enjoy the show.   I'll buy you a coke.  So what I am saying is I can even forgive you for being who you are. You will grow from this.

 lets not beat on Alan either. He is a super nice guy too and i know he would take a beating for any of us to keep us out of harms way (actual harm, not handle harm). after all, he took me in.  :smilielol:

wish i could have been there to meet some of you, but maybe next year. are there any big shows more west that everyone tries to hit?
