Well, that gets into the competition side of things. I dont think you'll ever not have people who either A. failed at their intentions, B. dont have a clear goal or C. Ego > brain. Regardless of what they've done to their car, right or wrong decisions made... there's always going to be the guy who is never at fault for failing even if they have no business winning.

Someone who intentionally makes an arbitrary decision like engine size and pursues a goal of say...quarter mile times. They're not going to have unrealistic expectations (they shouldn't) and not going to make excuses when going against a car that will be beyond their ability.

I think maybe you've experienced too many "Bro's" who can't handle their own ego...which is not surprising these days. Unfortunately, they're drawn to competitions like heroin.

haha I had to re-read chicagotommy's quote on me and saw the broken quote for chris thank god I've resolved to read things twice first.

As for the iron duke it can keep choking on dirt that thing was an embarrassment for chevy to put in a Camaro at that power level it took all it's HP and TRQ to just start moving.

Yeah, his broken quote really f'd that all up. I've got no beef with you. We're on the same team here, hoss. Apparently this Chris guy has taken over the 'follow ChicagoTommy around and post dumb shit' position that you recently vacated!
