Ive got a few ideas for the DD that I want to run by Holly(or Beefcake since he has decided to babysit the DD) It just might stop some of the Bitching....But probably not:lol:
Maybe you'd like to be in charge of the DD next year, for old time's sake? ;)

I'm not bitching about any of the rules, Im just saying EVERYONE should have to follow them. If something happens to your car and you get questioned about it, dont throw a fit about it. Just have a discussion and see what everyone thinks about it and try to come up with a conclusion on whether or not its that bad and if you should remain on the list or not.

Jim, you never told anyone before you backed it up, so should you be off permenatly?;) As for being at the track on a better day... yesterday was the only day we had.... and I work third shift the day before.... and mandatory ot, so I couldn't have made it. Sorry to disappoint you. Good luck on your car.... as I think you will need it, you had all year for seat time... next year I will have the opportunities you had, and I think this year is about as close as you will ever be to my rear bumper.:popcorn:
Ive been to the track and made 100 passes this year.A ton of dyno pulls and thousands of street miles.Theres been plenty of people seen me at the track every time Ive been.Like ive said before I could give a shit less about your car.If people see a need to take me off the list thats fine by me.I wish they would.

What is broke !!! that is what someone needs to state to clear all this up . Able to drive ?? Able to race??? Able to stay the way it is with out fixxing ???? It is pretty easy to clear up as soon as you know that . I change the oil in my car every 2 weeks broke ? I change my plugs every 3 runs broke ? I change valve springs once a year broke ? if i blow a strut out at the track but it still drive but i cant race it broke ? I eat a piston up at a race and plug up the fogger to that cyl and keep racing ( because im a dumb ass ) broke ?Some stuff is mantance and some stuff is broke just need to state what is what . I think what alot off this is. is that at the track that day after terry last pass everyone heard terrys car come back with a hell of a knock . Hell even kenny thought it ate up a push rod or broke a rocker . but when you got back home it turned out to be a header leak . Terry if you can drive your car just the way it sits up to cincy speed and you dont have to fix anything to do it then in my eyes its not broke . And if you want to stop all the questions just do it . Im not trying to single you out terry but right now you the only one in question. Shit i drive my car every year up to the dozen shoot out just to show everyone my shit still runs . Its cold with no heat though . ha ha p.s . Edgewater might be closed but there are plenny of places to race threw the new year :D AND 27 IS ALWAYS OPEN !!!!!

Wow some people are just dumb. Anyone that says your car isn't streetable is out to lunch. I was in Gatlinburg last year for the Rod Run walking down the street when I hear a pretty nasty mustang. To my surprise I look over and guess who it is, Jim and his wife in his cobra cruising the strip along with hundreds of other cool cars.

This is Not aimed at you Mike (I was just quoting you on the pain in the ass part)
Its amazing what people Bitch about to get on the list or get someone tossed off the list. It was suppose to be FUN. But EGOS get in the way and Fuck up everything. Whats real amusing is that "some" of the people saying, I dont care, take me off the list, etc etc are the ones that keep bringing shit up. Its like if they cant be on the list, then FUCK everyone that is. I guess that would be Envy, not Ego...or maybe both. Either way, it has become something Vinny would NOT be proud of. (All the Bickering and Bullshit) So SOMEHOW there will be a set of rules that everyone can agree on. If not, You can go post your times on another board. But know one thing, it WONT be the Dirty Dozen you are apart of.

No we are not ruining anything. There is a one sided rule book. When the dozen was started people started coming up with all kinds of bogus rules to keep me and Rob off the list... Go back and look. I bought Robs car I have the et in it, it should be on the list. Terry said his car needed fixed this means it's broke it should be off the list.. It's simple really no need for any argument..Whats right is right plain and simple

Kwik92GT
11-24-2008, 10:17 PM
If you get rid of about 90% of these rules you'd probably have about the same decrease in bitching or whatever you want to call it. Bunch of nancy bullshit if you ask me. I understand the wanting a person to be a "participating" member, even if I don't agree with the definition, and I can see you wanting the car to be registered, insured,and such, but, the rest after all that is just fluff. Quit with all the "break" rules crap, worrying about one hit wonders, etc. Fewer "rules" = less shit to bitch about. IMO

So when some person that noone knows, has one post, knocks a hard working, long time SBZ member, off the list, and is not heard or seen till the last week of November, makes a second post...They should be allowed on the list??
That is just an example, Im not pointing fingers at anyone...GOD I HATE being Fucking Politically correct.:mad:
This is way out of hand. Vinny started this idea and as long as SBZ is around, it should stay on SBZ. Everyone on the DD is very passionate about their status because we ALL know that SBZ is very respected throughout the area. When someone tells another that "that guy is number 3,4,1 on the Dirty Dozen" ALOT Of people know what the Dozen is. Its a sign of your hard work, long hours busting your ass and many missed dinners with the family that makes being on the list so fucking elite, special, honorable, etc etc.
Craig, argue all you want but it will not change anything, this year. The dozen is done till next spring.
So lets start a new thread and decide on how to make the DD better, not keep tearing it down. You can keep on "making your point" or step up and help the moderators make better decisions with running of the Dozen.

All the he said , we heard, yadda yadda will always be there when you have as many members as you do here. I have a question, would the people bitching about the DD put the stickers on their cars if they were on the list? Its as much about being proud to be a part of SBZ as anything else in my opinion.

I just dont know why all the mods dont step up and say you are broke everyone here except mods say you was broke, you had to back up the time you didnt, leting out in the 1/8 isnt backing it up, I dont even have a car close to it, but i can clearly see you was broke. like black90lx said it isnt a 1/8 mile list.

Well here is a little video to prove ya wrong.... We dialed the car down to keep the front end on the ground and it still pulled just as hard in the 1/8, if not harder.... to bad I didn't hit second gear for ya..... so do some research before you make a ILL INFORMED STATEMENT....:rolleyes:

You didn't prove me wrong. You will prove me wrong when you back up the time with the dented\smashed header and a full 1\4 mile pass
Silver Bullet
11-25-2008, 09:34 AM
Then don't fix it and prove you can still run the same time or maybe faster since it is making more power with a dented header.
A little hard to do when someone is wanting the blower and the car is getting a new setup for next year. It should be a very exciting year for everone next year. I know of a couple of cars coming out that will be EXTREMELY fast.:eek:

I beg to differ with you.... a lot of people say I'm not broke and I'm not. I can still drive my car and it already has made the 8 second pass. ;)

Doug is just trying to be an ass.. I wasn't doing any of this to screw you. I just think the car needs to be posted up. It's never been down for being broken
I am not being an ass. Just stating that all your BITCHING about not being on the list would only effect him. One minute you say you dont give a shit then the next your calling out cars and BITCHING about how your car should be on the list. You didn't make the list this year, plain and simple. Why? I dont know, I think you should be on the list if you ran the times and the car isn't broke. Don't enlarge your ego and think your special and everyone is out to single you out. NOT TRUE Remember a certin red turbo car from KK??? his Turbo car that wasn't on the list due to the "Rules". He made his case and moved on He knew his car was kick ass and could take 1/2 the cars on the list. Just keep this car for more then 90days before you sell it(LOL) and prove your point at the track first of the season. People know your rep for street racing and I dont think you will get alot of takers. Just ask Chad.....GO on three! LMAO

One thing I would like to see next year...
When the rules are final and posted, I dont wanna see anybody complaining about them if their car doesnt fit the rules. All the crying, bitching, complaining, arguing, etc etc will NOT get you on. Either step up and follow those rules, or stay away. Pretty simple.

Amen! All the bitching was kinda a buzz kill on what it means to be a part of the DD. This is something that i have been working at for quite sometime now, but things just never came together in time until this year. This is the first year and hopefully not my last year being included on the list. Moving forward now, we ALL will have to turn it up a couple notches to make it happen again.

I can prove it. The header pass was the first pass of the day. So that pass had to be after it. That is not my video, it is owned by someone who just taped it from the stands.... they posted it up for the board to see.;)
The car is still together and ready to roll out.... I kept it together and did NOT sell parts off of it just in case.;)
Hope this helps. I could even strap it to a dyno and give you some #'s if you don't believe me... but you can pay for it if you doubt me that much. My word is all I have... and I live by it. I like to think I'm one of the Honest members of society, ask anyone who knows me and I'm sure they will tell you the same.
Heck when a fellow competitor broke at the track... I was trying to find him parts to get his car going again. I went over and introduced myself... told him his car was very impressive and nice..... did he do the same..... I THINK NOT!:(

I don't have a dog in this fight.. But I will say, I was there when Terry did the big wheelie !!! ( Awsome BTW Terry) And I don't know him other than by his car.. That day at the track, He ran his car two more times, And I believe drove it home ?? But I saw the car make two more passes and it was running as hard if not harder then I had seen it run before.. Just my $.02
Again Congratulations Terry !!!

Thank you. I did not drive it home, drove it on the trailer though.:)
Kenny and Rob was tuning on the car, they told me to go watch the races and don't worry about what they was doing after the wheelie!lol The next pass I got up on the two step and it went to 3000rpm (dialed way down and they killed the timing in the low end to 6500rpm) , launched and it pulled a 1.30 60ft... and I could tell the car was pulling harder than ever before... I felt it in the small of my lower back.... (hard to explain and you might even laugh at me) but I know it was making way more HP than when it ran the 8.80. We have more boost now.;) and the air was Great.
I wish that would have been a clean hit, that would have ended this whole discussion.

Funny you should mention that though, last night one of my cats jumped on this pile of papers downstairs (scattering them) and I saw a list that Vinny had made, of the DD from 2006. I'm not sure how accurate it was, it is in his handwriting. I'll grab that tonight and email you what he wrote.

well if you smashed the header then made the 8.80 pass it needs to be dropped. from my under standing you made that pass before the header got fugged up.

So when some person that noone knows, has one post, knocks a hard working, long time SBZ member, off the list, and is not heard or seen till the last week of November, makes a second post...They should be allowed on the list??
That is just an example, Im not pointing fingers at anyone...GOD I HATE being Fucking Politically correct.:mad:
When has that happened? Not saying that person should be on the list either, but the criteria for being a "member" of this site and being able to make the DD is pretty subjective. Same with the break rule. The rules are too opinionated. That's where some of the "problems" are coming from.
You don't have to be politically correct on my behalf, I don't believe in that shit anyway and could give a fuck. Say what you feel and mean it. Like I said, I understand the reasoning of some of it, I just don't agree on the definition. It's just my opinion. Everyone else seemed to be throwing their .02 in and so did I.

it's hard to have an exact rule
to say you have to have 20 non something posts or whatever, the end of the year, someone jumps on, trying to throw a number in the dozen, just like flyinjz did and it gets questioned,
ya know what, if you wanna be on the dozen, dont even put yourself in a position to be questioned, get on the boards, drive the car to events, it's really not that hard
every one acts like it's a magic formula and it's not, it's pretty frickin simple,

I've got a question about the Dirty dozen.
Ok, what are the stipulations to make the list?
Cause i live in Lima and was going to try and make it down once in a while to trackday and meet with some people.
I had read that the car had to be driven to the track. Since I'd be coming from 2 hours north.. would I be allowed to unload at the track or would i have to park the trailer and drive it in?
If me not being able to make the dozen or compete for a spot on the dozen, Would the powers that control, make a separate list for others that cant make it on the list due to not being able to meet some of the rules.
Wasen't real sure where to put this, so mod or admin's can move it if it fits in a different area better.

It's not up to me, but in my opinion.....
If you trailer it down here, have valid tags and insurance and can take a member out on the street, for a short cruise, I see no reason to exclude you. The more times you can do this, the better. Maybe make the spring cruise-in. A little more activity, on the board, wouldn't hurt either.

Hmmm...I dont see why you couldnt trailer it a spot, have some fellow SBZ members meet up with you (them in there Stangs also)and you guys all cruise to TS or E2O for some testing and tuning. That is what is in the planing for the Running of the Dozen. A location for ALL members to meet at (yes you can trailer your car to the meeting spot) then at a set time, everyone fire them up and cruise to the track. Hopefully we can get a few dates and hit E2O, TS and KK. I think people that have never been to KilKare should at least go once and vice versa, those who have never been to Edgewater or Tri-State hit those tracks as well. It would get more of us Stangbangerz out behind the computer and out to the track.
Andrew, you post on SBZ, you have a thread detailing your project, you dont only get on here to peddle parts and make posts just to make the list. You are a true member of Stangbangerz....and if you trailer the Stang down from Lima to come hang out with the rest of us, you DEFINATELY deserve to be on the list.:bigthumb
And what Jeff said also. :)
