2008 Dirty Dozen Discussion Thread

[1992MustangDW]

im glad Im to slow to be arguing about this.

My qustion is what do you get if your number 1?

[Metcalf Racing]

You get to say "I'M #1"

[1992MustangDW]

SWEET!! I want that.

[Silver Bullet]

I might be mistakin but you haven't raced the car again because of the header so that makes it broke

I ran the car after that happened to the header tube.

I ran the car after that happened to the header tube.

What did it run?

[Metcalf Racing]

Ken, a dented header tube is not broke, in my definition. Sorry for your confusion.

Fix your car, Bolt your Futura's back on that baby, and come back down to Middletown and tell me how my back bumper looks

[Rob]

I agree with ya there completely, BUT that's not the rules of the Dozen right now. Everyone nit picks the people on the list they dont like, but when the people they like has something happen to them, it should just be looked over as preventitive maintenance or some other bullshit excuse. If I got thrown off for changing a headgasket that wasn't blow, just seeping a little water, than yes any kind of breakage at all and you should have to back up your time or your off the list. It's pretty plain and simple really.

I dont think you should have been kicked off plain and simple.

[Metcalf Racing]

Thats how the games played ask Kelly Shotwell

[Metcalf Racing]

My 9.94 is still not posted up

[Rob]

lol Next year this, next year that! Sounds like a famous line from CSR or something. Everyone I know plans on running 6's next year!!

Your right I sound like one of thoses nancies, I do have something in the works. I just hope I have the time to do it.

[YouGotJunk]

I dont think you should have been kicked off plain and simple.

Dang I've got like 5-6 votes now. Where were you guys whenever I was argueing this before? Anyways, i'm not worried about it. If I get to worried about it i'll go have my own sticker made up..maybe along the line of..."Didn't make the Dozen, but i'm willing to race about half of them"

[Metcalf Racing]

better buy a car LMAO

I think the running of the Dozen would have cleared up alot of this if it were followed thru with. This is getting bigger then I think Vinny ever thought it would. just some suggestions:

1. Two dates at the end of the season to run the DD
2. Set the dates early in the season so arangements can be made to attend in late October. ie (work scheduels, children ect....)
3. If you don't make one of the two events you will not make the list.
4. Moderators at both DD shootouts to "make the call" on broke or not
5. keep the list thru the year for say top 20 cars to qualify to run for the DD at the shootout
6. all times are thrown out. times are just used to qualify your car for the DD shootout times you run at the shootout are times that place you on the final DD list.
7. Make all cars run three BACK to BACK passes to prove street worthyness
8. Must run the DD with DR tires..This is a street car shootout
9. Car must be owned and registered to driver and proof of insurance.
You have all season to get a car out to the track to qualify for the shootout then run for the top spot.
Just some suggestions
maybe we need a rules board (NOT JUST MODERATORS) to define the rules

who would ever thought a sticker could cause so much shit!!!

[Black Horse]

My 9.94 is still not posted up

Post up the title with your name, proof of insurance and the time slips with witnesses to your run......same rules as everyone

[YouGotJunk]

better buy a car LMAO

Talking awful tough knowing that i'm about to strap a turbo on an LS1 car and bust your ass! I had fun with the mustang, just ready for something new. Goodluck with it!

[Black Horse]

I dont think you should have been kicked off plain and simple.

I don't think Rob was kicked off, I think he posted up he was broke and taken off after that. If he wasn't really broke he should still be on the list, I would think.

[Metcalf Racing]

Post up the title with your name, proof of insurance and the time slips with witnesses to your run......same rules as everyone

LOL....I guess I'm the first to have to do this but I will.......I'll have my agent fax me my insurance proof.. But I wanna see everyone elses also

[YouGotJunk]

Kelly Shotwell got on here running his mouth trying to say my car broke and it turned into a big argument and noone agreed with me. So after noone had my back I said FCK that list and to take me off if you guys felt the need. So instead you guys put me on the broken list, when my car was never broken. That was your alls bad decision, not mine!

Edit: None of this really even matters anymore since the car no longer belongs to me. If Metcalf wants to post up his times in the car since he is the owner, let him worry about it.

[91lxnos]

Wow the guy in the #12 spot is the one that will be bumped if your ruled not broke" He hasn't said shit

Kelly dont know anything. Was he there to witness what happened to Terrys car? Did he crawl under it and check it out for him? I'm just going by what Terry posted on the board himself, saying the header tube was crushed.

Yes I was there and I did witness it. I did look at it after it happened. Any other questions?
