darn looks like my stocking aint gonna have one.
just checked. takes too long (idling) to get above 192 in 43 degree weather. (pulled the cap, idled her for 1 minute, ran her at 2k for 2mins., checked the coolant level, no change, reinstalled the cap, let her continue to idle, got bored waiting. i shut her down at 192 after 10mins.).
It's the internet guys, lol...if anyones getting hurt feelings on a message board then it's going to take more than an "I'm sorry" to fix that problem, lol
I dont let people ruffle me on any forum, and i always try to be nice and kind to others. I really like everyone on here, and have learned alot.
Reminds me of a boss I had a few years ago. He said that conflict was always good in an organization. Then one day I disagreed with something he wanted to do and told him. He got really pissed and then I realized that conflict was good for the organization as long as it wasn't with him!
Well, again this is just an impersonal forum and not real life. Your job and your boss are real. Just FYI.
Man I have met some real cool people on this forum that live locally, spinmonster included, who has done and spent countless hours of tuning and installing my Fast 90 and most of all being a great new friend. KUMBAYA ALL !!!

Makes me almost wish I lived near you guys......almost
At times I come off like an *** on these forums, and I apologize for that. Also Im sorry for the personal insults I made in the heat of the moment. I was banned for some of them and like I told the mods I can guarantee it wont happen again.
Hopefully we can let bygones be bygones.
Way to go man. I heard many years ago that we are judged more on what we do AFTER we make a mistake than when we mess up. Peace & best wishes!

11secondGP,
What you did took guts, plain and simple. And what I am sure as well is that others will do the same.
Spin,you said something that put it all together well for ALL of us. FORGIVENESS! Also, like many others I followed everthing and honestly felt for all sides at one time or another. One thing though is I hoped it would stop. This is great. And I hope it's not too sappy but really it's a great time of year to have this happen. Reminds us all that we are human and yes we can act nasty at times. Let's be honest we've ALL done it some time or another. Let's keep this goin' all year! NUFF SAID!
Everbody have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Apology?
I must have missed all the fun as I have received many, many private messages to look, but the ignore thingie works great...... just like the selective hearing my boss has
I have a rule at work. If I get pissed at work it could cost me my job if I **** off the wrong person. So if I get an email that makes me mad, I will write a reply and then my rule is I have to sit on it overnight before I send it. I figure if it still looks good in the morning I can still send it. Guess what, I have yet to send 1 of those emails out!
I do the same thing I even take their name out of the "to" line so it can't be accidentally sent.
