Your condescension is evident in your apparent belief that you somehow have credentials and sanction to chide someone you have absolutely no information about, because they used a screen name in making a post. That you're the official Subject Matter Expert on Classracer.com.

MIKE LYONS, This is not about you, MIKE LYONS
I thought I made that clear in the first sentence, last response.

Here is the post that I was talking about. Ed Bigley and his son ,Kyle , in a winner's circle photo.

Have a nice day, MIKE LYONS

The first sentence of your last response says absolutely nothing about not being about me (MIKE LYONS).

I've read many of your posts, and it is obvious from them that you see yourself as some sort of drag racing icon. Looks like you've owned a lot of cars, and been racing since the beginning of time. Good for you...

You seem to believe that this somehow qualifies you to instruct others on how to live their lives (e.g. "You should come out into the sunlight, blah, blah, blah"). It does not.

I am genuinely sorry for even responding to your criticism of my use of a screen name, not because your life coaching attempt actually accomplished anything, but rather because we just wasted each other's time. To put it simply the post would have had no greater or lesser significance or legitimacy if I had posted as MIKE LYONS.

So, since the only thing continuing this will do is waste more time, I declare you the winner of the Weekly Classracer.com Completely Pointless Argument Award. Add it to your assumedly already substantial list of achievements, as you share your wisdom and judge others.

Let me break this down for you.........


"you see yourself as some sort of drag racing icon"



Well actually, several # 1 qualify shots, #1 @ Indy, yah Mark probably shouldn't be conversing with you on a forum. Theres a lot of talent, and one of those talents isn't getting out his CK book and bubble packin it.

Hey Mark! Mark! Mark!

Here's another guy who needs to come out into the sunlight and use his real name! Get on him!

You guys kill me. You all take yourselves so seriously.

Maybe it's just an example of Mark's character and his charitable nature that he will actually converse with me on a forum.

BTW, what does "getting out his CK book and bubble packin it" even mean?

Finally, I absolutely LOVE "Let me break this down for you..........."

"Let me break this down for you..........." , one last time.
I said I remembered who you were .You had identified yourself in the past.
Hence , my comment wasn't directed at you, MIKE LYONS.

My OPINION is that I don't think it's a good idea that anonymous folks post here, making suggestions about how NHRA should run their policies. We've been told that at least some of them over there follow this drivel here.
Several seemed to agree with me. Apparently , many do not. But that's okay with me , too. Most of them have a lot more invested than I do, and you'll reap what you sow.
Again , an opinion piece.
No need for name calling

Carry on...

Not that my agreement matters, but I agree with everything you say above. Peace, brother.
