Navygolf can feel free to post it himself. it sounded like a spam message (by that I mean sent to multiple people) to me.

He didn't really 'stand up' for MrA, but he makes him sound like a huge victim with one sentence, then calls him a bum in another.

 

Is there a reason you won't just post the PM?

 

I thought that was sortof, 'not cool' or against the TOU. if I'm mistaken I have no problem posting it.

 

A quick scan of the ToU and I find no indication that PM's cannot be posted. Its up to you if you think its "not cool" to post the PM he sent but there is nothing about it in the "rule book"

I don't think NG would mind....

 

wait, so YOU didn't get this email? you were the one making those comments, that is why i figured you had it. I don't know why he sent it to me. I don't even think I said he should get beat up, I might have.

 

Stealing from a stealer. Thanks ironic.

Goes back to the old school, enemy of my enemy is my friend.

 

yeah, I don't fully beleive what vqturbotec says until it's proven, but it's matching up to other's stories... no matter what kind of person he is... truth is truth and motive is relative.

 

Dont they owe it to the public to state " Has not been Verified"..?? The way they do when someone claims that they have 1000000000 rwhp

 

they never say 'has not been verified'! import mags harly ever show a dyno sheet....

but when I read the story, it sounded to me like they were very skeptical as well... and it came across loud and clear.

but apparently, this story was made without the car ever being fitted with the AWD system... so they were completely going on thier word.

magazines really don't care about verifying numbers. the Ultimate SSC tests will show waht the car is really putting down, and at that point the car will be a joke.

does anyone remember the White 3000gt VR4 convertable the first year that was claiming like 600whp and put down squat and got trounced on?

 

haha.....I gotta admit, your initial post made me go

Knowing I was sent a random PM as well....it all makes sense.

I find it quite interesting that he still has quite such intimate knowledge of things that go on over there still.....

 

Dont they sometimes use the word "Claim" which mean has not been verified in the Auto world

 

...

 

yes. they always... or should always use that unless it is a tech article. but it's not such an overt thing like 'THIS HAS NOT BEEN VERIFIED' alot of people over look it I think.
