I have a question. When someone car "breaks" and it is said it has to back it up, does that mean one has to run the same time, close to, or better? I have been reading this post for a while and I just dont understand.
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.
I hear ya.:(
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.
The car is driven everywhere but to the track. I had it in Columbus last month racing it.
The car ran a 9.94@139.6@ KK last month and Jeff from precision was there(I'm not sure if he is a member) Flyn2jz,ibstrokin,I think ricks88coupe,yougotjunk,noshot,cruSSin, I was racing Mike Whitts silver Chevelle with the black (Blownincome)
I made the second DD shoot out. I have that on tape
Dude really I dont care either way. I'm not taking offense to any of this from anyone.
WOW!!!! I had a blast last year running in the DD and did not have any problems. I just went threw this thred and cant believe how this is ending this year:confused: WTF???? 2 cars in the 8s :eek: :eek: thats what its about (getting faster every year) and people getting out to the tracks and having a good time. You guys are ruining this thing:mad: I will say congrats to the entire list and especially Jim and Terry :bigthumb
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
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.
With all the bickering it must mean people hold those 12 stickers in very high regard....and they should.
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.
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:

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.
