Sometimes I think the forum is going down hill. Back when I first joined people were happy to help, the only dumb question is the one you don't ask.

Those who think they are better than others and have nothing nice to post Just Don't Reply as its obviously a waste of you time.

well, there was nothing in the owners manual on how to deal with ******.
That is what the "P" next to the gear shift lever is for. Probably should use it until you read the owners manual. It's the inner web, you will need to grow some thicker skin. Calling out names only shows a level of frustration due to lack of knowledge/intelligence. Beside most of the guys here grew up before everything had to be politically correct and everyone was a winner just because they showed up. So give them some slack also.

Those were the days. No dictionary of "PC" words to use in place of others that mean the exact same thing, and you had to EARN your way instead of being handed a trophy for coming in last.

JCR, I thought this forum was established in order to answer questions and bring in new members. To bad some "boys" have not grown up with their "toys". Any way, I visited your .com site and see that you are raising quite a nice young man. From reading his racing bio, I could tell he is much more mature than some of the members on this site. Oooooh. Since I am new to the forum, I try reading up on info as it comes along. Never noticed the page button myself. Looks like I will read about it in my owners manual. Thanks for the question.

Hello Zagger?
Your narcissism is demonstrated by your ability to lecture someone you don't have the slightest idea about.
My level of intelligence includes 4 years of under-grad, 4 years of medical school, 2 years residency, etc., and allows me to make a very nice living in the OR. I guess you're right if I'm frustrated by asking a simple question then getting berated as I'm some idiot. Insulting someone that is asking a question is ridiculous. Lecturing someone in this medium is even more ridiculous. You keep doing it and all you'll have on this "forum" is a bunch of fools that know a lot less than they project.
Thick skinned? You've gotta me kidding me. I've simply learned a lesson that I'll carry forward.
I'm not much on politic correctness either. SO…… (use your imagination)

SO......"have a cold one on me and enjoy the rest of your day"?
Thanks, I will

Your question was just a question and some of the responses were less than tasteful but you sir managed to trump them all bay calling them ******. Some of them might have even deserved it, maybe even me. But seriously, for a man of your intelligence to stoop down to our level.

Anyway, hope we can all forgive each other and no hard feelings. At least on my side. SO....hope you have a great rest of the day.

Chicago1, I completely agree with you. I also see no need to interject religious undertones in this forum, the question had nothing to do with it.
