What a bunch of whiny, miserable people you are wishing bad things on people you don't even know. Your life must be really bad because misery loves company.

I'm with you Jack. I met Ed last year when I was pitted next to him at Maple Grove. I thought he was a pretty nice guy. I had no idea he had a real thing against people with a couple of bucks regardless of whether they have worked night and day for 20 or 30 years to get there and are now enjoying the fruit of all their hard work. Too bad...

I was told this same CJ sold at BJ last year for $110K. That IS a speculator. Not a racer!

Come on Anthony.I never once said that.I have no problem with anyone who gets
involved with racing and their equipment.You have a nice fleet,cars,trailer ,etc.I'm sure you
worked hard to get where you are today.I hold no ill will towards youi or any other racer with more than what I have (which is a vast amount of people).
Take a look at the high profile speculators (some,not all) who are taking over the
collector car market.They found a place to dabble and become a hero to their friends
and adoring fans.
Jack have no fear that I'm including you in that group.In the end you're small potatoes
in the collector car market.But that's okay,if you enjoy what you do,good for you.

Jack,I don't back pedal.It's not my fault you can't comprehend the written word.You also put too much importance on yourself in the scheme of things.I repeat,I think it's a good thing when speculators get bit in the *****.Period.

I agree....if it wasnt for speculators and dirt bag shows like Barrett-Jackson more regular working stiffs could afford to have a nice muscle car these days.

Ain't America great?Wer're all entitled to our opinions,whether the P/C police like it or not.

BTW I'm assuming you're refering to me hoping the seller of the car loses his shirt on the mustang.
I don't see where I wished any physical harm to him,only in his pocket for a)not putting a reserve on it b) the fact that it's pretty safe to assume he's not a racer.A real racer wouldn't in his wildest dream think of selling one of these cars for $56K.A speculator needs to take a financial beating
once in a while.Maybe then they wouldn't throw stupid money at things and ruin the market for real
car guys.But I'm sure this doesn't matter one bit to you.You're most likely a keyboard racer anyway.
Jack is a racer and maybe way back in his mind he sees my point,but that's for him to determine.
