Here we go again...

I do not EXPECT to get paid a single dime - I do not do this because I hope to recoop my expenses.

I hope to watch my son go very fast - and enjoy myself while I am doing it.

I love this so much and enjoy it so much - I am actually OK with paying and the more fun I have, the more it should cost.

Obviously, some are not ready to admit - it is OK to loose money in drag racing or our hobbies (ski boats, off road vehicles, etc.)

They want to justify what they spend in drag racing by saying they COULD win some small amount someday and the less they have spent the less they have lost.

The point is - almost no one is turning a profit in sportsman drag racing (please do not bore me with the names of the few that do)

Almost every single one of us spend way more money than we win - we do it because we enjoy it.

The only difference between men and boys is the price of their toys.

Please re-read what you posted. Think about it if it applied to you.

Say you are sorry.

Move on, thinking before you post.
Number 1: I'm not a keyboard tough guy. Number 2, I have a good source for my info, Number 3, I never heard of Durham, and Number four, I can't remember ever liking or getting along with anyone from California: And I don't apologise for "not" wronging someone. Too me, he seems like a "buyer" based on his previous posts, where he was asking what's up with the lag time on the V-10 DP's: Like we would know, maybe he should use some of his "money" to make grand-ma Mopar move faster.

Cool Re: DP #1 V10 SS Challenger...?

Your post basically attacked a nice guy, who has been on this Forum a lot longer than you. You hide behind an account name that is not your own. No one knows who you are. You don't know Mr. Durham, we don't know you.

I'm sure Mr. Teuton doesn't need you to post about his projects. He is very capable of posting himself.

You should apologize, if only to recognize that your post might have been taken in a hostile manner.

I wasn't posting about Jeff Teutons' projects. And I wasn't posting anything that isn't common knowledge in the Mopar world. And there was no hostile intent in anything I posted. And like I said: I don't apologise for "not" wronging someone. And, like I said, "I never met anyone from California that I liked." And if that offends you, oh well.
