In spring I'm pulling the engine and transmission and rebuilding both. I'll be driving the Vette at that time. It's a fun car to drive but I don't like driving it every day.

It is a bit high, but not to bad. At first I'm like wow, that's high, but I got used to it.

do you really want to go there? we take pride in keeping the *shoot* behind the scenes so the general public doesn't have to deal with the teenage-like drama. But no... a certain few keep wanting to dig it up and for what? to gain attention? to wear the scarlet A?

And so I have situation here...if i were to remove your post you'd cry "unfair! we can't discuss things in public!" But if I leave it here, then you get the drama and attention you want. Seriously, it's a no win situation for folks who simply want to enjoy the forum.

I may take these posts down...I may leave them... but the truth of the matter here is that nothing about you "not being allowed" will be discussed here. So if even one person thinks to ask more questions here, or to start another thread, or so much as insinuates in any thread...the conversations will be over immediately.

I am so tired of seeing policies such as COTM - which have been put into place for nearly a year - be challenged when someone thinks they are so much more than they are and proudly displays a so-called 'target' on their back.

So for those of you who want to know what is going on and why is Tracy coming from out of 'no-where' freaking out on Danthurs? It's simple really. Danthurs was upset this past month for not being chosen to run for COTM and had a lengthy discussion over our policy. Unfortunately, he did not get chosen to compete due to his previous board warnings.

COTM is for members who are in good standing in the club. Whether you agree or not, that's the way it is. And THAT is why he is not "allowed"

Getting back into the spirit of the topic, I love how clean your engine bay is. It takes a lot of work to get it there and keep it that way (or at least it seems to for me, lol).
