Shoot man, most fellow racers would see it was an honest mistake and after the time and money he spent, would have sent the carb back to be a real fellow racer. He was never the man asking for his carb back, but look at the money he's out. Some of us don't have money and live paycheck to paycheck. So buying something for our cars is something to look forward to. Not trying to get ahead and then having to take 2 steps back. Accident or not, he stepped up and tried to do what was best. People on here are just saying that 99% of us would have just sent the man his carb back. Until your in a poor man shoes your whole life, please get off his case. As far as real racecars go, 260-270 is very impressive to be paid for, but real racecars are built in the backyards and single car garages of America with real blood, sweat and tears. And we are as or more proud of our slow stuff, then anybody that can buy a fast car/dragster. :P Flame off
So im supposed to feel bad because I worked smart in life and have something and you didnt. Give me a break. 99% of you might have given it back and thats fine but you cant come down on jrlj because he doesnt have the same view as you. as far as being poor well, I was raised poor and decided I would not make my kid go through the same thing in llife that I had to. Dont you want better for your family? Maybe if your sooo poor you should stop racing and use the money to invest or build a profitable business. Then come back and build a nice car. :lol: just a thought. your comment about real race cars being built by blood sweat and blah blah blah dude get off your soap box. We all turn wrenches and sweat a lot to do this stuff and I spend my money wisely. I bet 75% of you fellas have more in your cars than we do.
I have told MOP I was not attacking him personally. I decided to voice my opinion and people started questioning it. So I explained my reasoning in this. I was only trying to show another point of view fellas.
Its amazing how far we have got off the subject. The further we get the more correct I know I am. So you fellas flame away if you like. My opinion makes my no less of a racer than you.
Thanks for posting my profile. Mop kept asking for it but I didnt know how to post.
Oh yeh I would go buy him a new dominator but he would probably just give it away too. LOL just kidding felllas :lol: :lol:
