Well the 76 wagon comment wasnt directed at you, didn know you had one......I tried to think of a Dodge Aspen Wagon Circa 1976 that was a car that didnt get made as not to offend....but since I wasnt sure they didnt make something of the like, I figured that would offend the least people out there.....But I struck the Aspen or Volare part since, I wasnt sure.

But leave it to you to think it was directed at you. Looks like youll put yourself in the line of "fire" as it were no matter what it takes in regards to anything I post.

Ive already said Im a **** driver, what EXACTLY are we betting on ? Who wins and dosent red ?, that dosent seem fair for your side, who has the best RT ? Who dosent break out, or in a staggered to see who breaks first ? who drops out of the elims first, WHAT EXACTLY is the Bet ? I need to know exactly what I am betting on.

"How about one more wager that you will never show up to HONOR? My kid will bracket race you in his no name 76 Dodge against you personally in your Big Buck Hero car and loser donates $1,000. to American Red Cross..." Is clear in some points and Im guessing coming from you intentionally misleading and vauge.

Well have to hammer out exactly what we are betting on, and where, Gainesville may be better timing wise. Im have no doubt we can work something out, Im flexible.

The stakes are good, and the cause good, Im game $1000 seems fair to me, Just have a $1000 Bank Check on hand and an envelope, that way the winner can take the check and mail it themselves , make it out to American Red Cross. The winner can then decide what to do with the check they still hold, either donate it as well or get it cancelled at the bank (I think they charge $25 here to do that on a cashiers check) I have the 1000 sitting on my desk and will go get a bank check today if we come to agreeable terms.

In as much as my "Honor" goes thats something you

a)Have no idea of , I keep commitments I make even at my own expense and if they negativley affect me, because my word is as solid as it gets and the only thing I can call my own beyond infuence or control

b)From you prior intentionally misleading posts is clear something you dont have to worry about yourself.

I damm near forgot, the first pic was taken just for you.....I had to be reminded, the second is to clear any questions you may have on the ability to backup the bet that you "Claim" will never be honored. We couldnt figure out if after that last post on the above thread if you went on vacation, were spending time with the family, went to jail, went on a drinking binge, didnt much matter we just hadnt seen any posts from you worthy of the pic....so here it is.......a joint effort I assure you.

But John, why think small ? I mean if this is just your way of puffing up YOUR chest and this that and the other, I would suggest you think BIGGER, You left TOO many chips on the table for me not to pick up.

How about this for size, we let ANYONE Join in this "Bracket" event, everyone puts in the $1000 ALL to be donated to the American Red Cross, WINNER Picks the Directed Donation fun it goes to in the Red Cross. If I want it as the winner to go for the "Haitian Earthquake Fund" thats good, if you win and want it to go to the "Stop Sexual Cruelty Charges for Livestock" then it goes there, WHOEVER the Winner is they get THEIR choice instead of seeing the money just hit the General Fund, BUT it goes THROUGH the Red Cross.The winners Returned their $1000 entry and can do with it as they wish. The remaining sum in donated IN ITS ENTIRETY to the ARC. If we even get 1 or 2 other entrants it will make for more money for a worth cause, and if everyone is so certain of a win, then they will get their funds back to do with as they wish, but at the same time they will be the person that gets to direct the funds for the usage of the ARC as they see fit....

I even know a track in Texas that would probabbly be willing to host the event and get it some press. Should help bring more people to the event and racers. Ive got a call into them now, the owner wont be in till later or tommorow.

Unless, and just because the only thing you thought of was a way to pick it up and make it all about you, and your "Triumph" so you could really puff your chest a little bigger for you and the people you think look up to you.......and really didnt care for the charity aspect, but this approach should correct any issues with that.

Think BIGGER John....thinking small "is so last year" ..... keep up if you can.

Im even willing if we can find an agreeable and trustworth party to have them hold the funds NOW so any bull**** you may want to sling about me not "Honoring" my commitments looses the stink you seem to try to put on everything.

Put your money where your mouth is is the quote I seem to hear here a lot. Ill do it today....if we can agree on a venune and form for the "event"

That is sickoning to me. Even if you don't know time lines, as long as you know what the basis of what each one of them were about, then you could place which came first. YUK. Like I said before, I'm sure someone could recomend a kid who is deserving and will put that money to use educating him/herself. Or you could send your money to a nonprofit organization where the ceo makes a billion a year and 15% of your money goes to the cause. We all know this race won't ever happen, so whats the point of this thread anyway?

Have you heard what they teach NOW about Columbus's trip to America?
A basic education and some parental or otherwise adult guidance and common sense will get you a lot farther in life than a so called sheep skin in many cases.
I'm not the brightest bulb in the box,H.S. education.Got a job with Con Edison (at 27 yrs old).
I retired at 55 with a pension.Got So Sec at 62 and in April Medicare.I'm not rich but I'm doing OK.In the US thank God we have the OPPERTUNITY to go as far as we care to work for.

DIRECTLY......

You apparently accidentally attributed someone ELSES Posts to me.

If thats the case and you were reffering to GTX-JOHN, I think we are both on the same page in as much as the spirit of the tradgedy is concerned.

HERE is WHAT I SAID. First, I was responding to a Post by X-Tech
http://classracer.com/classforum/sho...ghlight=drooze

You will se HE is the one who said "population control" and I said that was callous in my reply.

AND HERE
http://classracer.com/classforum/sho...=drooze&page=2

AND Finally HERE
http://classracer.com/classforum/sho...=drooze&page=2

FACTS, FACTS , No more GTX JOHN, trying to say something I did NOT.....NONE.

I could have misunderstood COMPLETLEY, and If you were reffering to GTX JOHN , I Aplogize in advance for that confusion, I didnt bother, and dont to read his responses to many things here, I just couldnt let this one "slide" well. I rarley let anything slide, I need to work on that.....

But then again, it could have been an honest mistake on your part, if that the case I accept your apology.

This one has me seeing red.......IF it was meant in my direction, if it wasnt then I wont need to refill my blood pressure pills:mad::D:mad:

Cheers

Chris

ATTENTION.

I want everyone to know that my comment was a total mistake. Mr. Drooze made no such comments and I offer my sincere apology. I mistakenly attributed someone else's comments to him and it was a mistake on my part.

I offer my sincerest apologies and have changed my comment.

Once again, Mr Drooze did not make the comments that I attributed to him.
