It is exceptionally difficult to communicate in a civil manner with Motorhead. I also gave up years ago. It doesn't matter what your personal experiences have been or what sort of professional and/or scientific reference data you cite for him. In his mind, he is infallible, and he will invariably circle back to, "I've built 500 engines how many have you built?" He reminds me a bit of DaNNNN for those of you that also troll CFOT.

Motorhead, ask yourself, what is the common factor in all your altercations?

I appreciate all the help on this forum, but it does portray corvette owners to be a bunch of ***** sometimes. If we're not arguing about a ***** badge, it's time slips, hp, radiators, brake seals...
