I don't know Bobby... sounded like some valid questions to me.
You planned many moons ago to get your tune done as soon as possible. Next weekend, I plan on being at a party that will be attended by several swimsuit model/ volleyball players, and getting laid by all of them. At once. Much like your tune, the reality of me waking up next to 3 or 4 swimsuit models who play volleyball will likely fail to materialize.
Shock and awe.
You and I both know damn well that that UDP will find its way on to your SVT long before any of the other necessary work to make it safe and run properly. Like a round, unbent wheel, or an unbent rear lateral link (or control arm? or both?), or that axle, or a tune, or a solution to your oil consumption issues.
Then there's the posting about clocking 140 on a public road in a car that would likely not pass even the most lax safety inspection in the country. If you want to earn a Darwin Award, by all means, feel free. But don't do it around other people and put their lives at risk too. That's just stupid, irresponsible, and liable to open you up to continued flaming.
On JR jumping forums to say hi... generally, it's frowned upon, but I have to admit man, everytime you click Post Reply or New Thread, you're just fanning the flames kid. And make no mistake, I can promise you with almost 100% certainty...
...if you return to TCCA to participate in that UDP group buy, you will be flamed mercilessly. And neither myself nor any of the other moderators will stop it. After the S2000 incident, and you driving your Duratec Taurus like a clown, and now this latest episode...
Man, we rooted for you. We really did. We said, "well, he's young, he'll grow out of it." And we watched and waited and hoped.
It was like watching the Titanic sink man. Just terrible.
At this point, we're all just waiting for the part where the boat snaps in two, and sinks the rest of the way.
Hopefully, you'll suddenly wake up and realize the error of your ways, and work to right the wrongs, and move forward in a more sane, more mature direction with things. At least that's my hope. Unfortunately, I have this unnerving feeling that the reality will involve a bag of popcorn in front of my computer, and some more laughter at this whole debacle.
I would appreciate it greatly if you could prove me wrong.

To CEG... sorry for this post. Normally, I just let sleeping dogs lie, but this needed to be said, for my sanity if anything else. Also, to be clear... no one recommended that he get a Tour. If he had asked, we would've sent him the way of Honda and been done with it. Unfortunately, he kinda dropped the SVT Tour on us, and while we were a bit elated to see him go, some... a bunch of us knew that somehow, someway he'd be back. And here we are. Good luck.
