The stuff you get from people like Huntsville MIGHT be "OK" for a bracket car but too me bracket racing isn't racing. To be honest unless the engine builders initials are LGF, R/M, B.Jenks., JK, BAE, or SP chances are YOU'VE GOT A PILE OF SH*T!
RM is no different then Huntsville all these places build what you would call a crate motor just basic parts that makes good tq/hp and they all build custom built motors to the customers specs. Fact is I want someone who builds these quote on quote crate motors because they last 100's of passes without doing nothing but oil changes and checking lash. Of course I am a bracket racer and not a real racer so what do I know :!: |

The only five I come up with is fivestarcars doubt its him. Just think its a heads up racer ( can tell by the talk and engine builders he named off) bashing on bracket racers. Dont see me bashing on heads up guys do ya ??? He should remember he is on a "racing" forum and we welcome, racers of all kind on here. :lol:

Well said everyone. I will be the first to admit that I am not an expert as i am learning more & more from people like you. I have only been down the track a few times... worked on my car FAR more than I will ever drive it! Weather you are new to racing our an expert, I think the same principals should apply... & like I said before, PLEAD YOUR WHOLE CASE. Otherwise, it is probably not the builders fault. I have only truley destroyed one HP engine... "excessive RPM" spun a bearing & some other damage too. IT WAS MY FAULT!! Case & point: don't blame others unless you can back up your story!! Why try to attack someones integrity if you can't even tell the whole story... not cool. JMO- Rigsby AKA Scooter

"nice first post" I like to make an entrance! "which of these builders do you work for" LOL Last time I checked purchasing an engine means THEY are working for you. "Only 6 people in the world know how to build bullet proof engines" Yes sir, give or take. I throw in BG too but like I said before a "good" engine most anyone can build, just not a "great" one. "edit your post to something believable" So you're saying someone like LGF don't build better motors than people such as Huntsville? Talk about a "silly slip of the tongue"! I'm doubting the TRUE "top notch" builders will forgive YOU! LMAO! Guess i'll just have to buy a REAL engine from a proven name like LGF or RM, real bummer lol! "Bracket Racing isn't racing" I wouldn't call losing for going faster racing??? You do??? "Eat my donuts" Quit that before you SH*T yourself!
|
"can't catch a light, drive the big end, or has never bracket raced" ROFLMAO! .500 lights are for ameteurs and a bracket "racer"(or anything bracket "racing" for that matter) driving the big end gets me about as excited as having a wedgie. JMO!
|
Is this guy related to Hilldo ?
|
"he's a bench racer" Hmm I SERIOUSLY doubt that but I see YOU are on the forum too??? "put his own money in a car" LOL i've probably forgot about more cars than you'll ever have! Now go play with your matchbox!
|
He IS related to Hilldo !! my, my such a potty mouth.......
|

"bracket racing ins't racing...you have a clue don't ya" Sure do! I know a bunch of BS when I see it! "RM is no different than Huntsville" LMFAO! Don't be silly! "I am a bracket racer and not a real racer so what do I know" FIRST thing I heard you say that makes sense!
|
"Fivestarsford" ROFLMAO! IT'S fiveSTAGE. Learn how to read! "didn't fivestars(lol) name come up in a scammer forum" PUHLEASE SON! YOU don't have to lie to make friends! "could he have changed his name again" How does "GET OFF MY NUTZ" sound for a name?
|
"don't see me bashing heads up guys" LOL You do realize how STUPID that sounds?? I mean especially because most bracket racers DREAM of making it in the heads up world.
|
yawn yawn yawn ....
dont bring this crap here we dont need it or want it .. :!: |
By GAWD, I KNOW he's Hilldo's twin brother !!
Same potty mouth, same false ego, same outlandish stories, same anger at being so alone in this cruel world........He needs his own thread as well. Then he can potty mouth and brag all he likes with no one to 'offeeeeeend ' him...... |
FivestageFord.
I have been a heads up racer all my life so does my family and some very close friends..i have owned door cars capable of lower 4 second 1/8 mile et's.dragsters capable of 3.90 et's as well as 7.50 et's street and strip cars....No expense or quality spared. ( no secret to anyone on this site).. Now let me be perfectly clear in what i am about to say here..I personally care nothing for Bracket racing watching or competing..but I WILL NOT go as far to say this guys are not racers nor is the sport racing or competitve These bracket guys have done got so techinal about their sport its actually tougher to win a MAJOR bracket race than most heads up and/or index racing. ONLY GOD kNOWS THE MONEY SOME OF THESE TOP TEAMS HAVE INVESTED IN THEIR SETS UPS THAT COMPETE PROFESSIONALY AS BRACKET RACERS. Bracket racing is competitive as any event out there...Is it my style or taste of Motor sports racing ?...NO.... but rest assure its racing and the Guys doing it and winning could compete on heads up levels..No doubt in my mind... You are entitled to your opinion thats why we have this forum..but i will be the 1st HEADS UP RACER TO (another) YOU ..your wrong about bracket racing and racers.... Also nothing wrong with a 1,000 hp crate engine either.. :D |
'' fivestageford'' What about a sonny's engine?

Look, I agree w/ lively too... but rather he (fivestageford) is the king of kings or not, all knowing/all powerful, "a racing expert in all areas", etc... that is harsh to come on here & try to put the smack down on these people... why not talk with some HUMILITY & be polite. In all honesty, he probably knows alot more than I, but WHO CARES WHEN ARROGANCE BLEEDS FROM ONES ENTIRE CHARACTER. Fivestagestarford, chill out, we know you are important... based on how you talk to people, we are in complete AWE of your knowledge of everything. Say no more, we bow down to you O' great one... NOT.

Gentlemen:
New poster. No profile. No location. This forum has been through that drill before. I believe it was Tod74 who posted about trolling. Public boards will always get posters who are provocative for their own amusement. According to Wiki: An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum or chat room, with the intention of provoking other users into an emotional response[1] or to generally disrupt normal on-topic discussion The key is to provoke someone to the point that they get angry and highly emotional. So he doesnt have respect for bracket racing- Do you think there are bracket racers out there who actually care what Fivestageford thinks? And at the end of the day, guys do you? Scorp |
NO
|
Care
No.
|
NO
''JUST MY TWO CENT'S WORTH'' |
No

I'm not a bracketeer and I don't even give a rats patooty...He's dissing my friends unnecessarily....not kooool foool.
I STILL claim he's a Hilldo |
Where do ya suppose the name "fivestageford" came from?Ya reckon he had to stage the damn thing five times before he got it to run enuff to make a complete pass? :wink:
|
LOL... sick em'... big talk, no walk.

Must be they saw the first post and want to get rid of it before it BLOWS UP too. :lol: :lol: :lol:

The irony in Jegs advertisement + no honor payments....
665cid Huntsville BB-Chevy ~ All Aluminum ~ Dry Sump ~ Brand new, never ran Please contact Mike for dyno sheet more info. Doesn't a engine have to run to produce a meaningful dyno sheet? :lol: |
I do not necesarily agree with how 5stages comes off but I gotta admit he IS CORRECT on ALL accounts. Case in point is Jeg SELLING a new motor and NOT keeping it. NOBODY can deny the implications! I hate a cocky SOB as much as the next person but when you are right your right!
