That was a better read then the "Cardoc" debacle. Uhh, does Cardoc like crossdrilled rotors too?

Phew...after about 30+ miuntes of reading, I made it to the end of page 8 or 9. Gotta stop. I'd have to give most of the honors to Cobra. Now, if he'd just stop using the non-word "irregardless". This is not a word...drives me insane that non-word. Neither is "supposably" (if that's how you spell a word that doesn't exist...)
But the other good point was made about Nissan owners just cruising and not racing.
The best line I came across there, by Cobra:
Dem rotorz is da pimp as shizzy is to hizzy, I be roll'n tru da hoodz bling bling'n while my hoez be blurrin at my binderz & daytonz! W3rd?
Classic...
I love my Contour to death, but my 'vette is still my #1 baby.
There's money to be made in racing. I should know. I put a lot of it there.
You can make a small fortune in racing. Start with a large one.
How fast do you want to go...how much money do you have?
You can fix a lot of things, but you can't fix stupid!

the best non-word i've ever heard was "dethaw." my friend at school said she doesn't like the ground freezes at night and "dethaws" during the day because it gets muddy. i told her it's not a word, but she refuses to believe me. she's going to school to be a teacher, by the way.

Funny, the sales guy was nowhere to be seen once my new hero Cobra laid down the smack until the tech discussion dies down on page 7. Now I'm glad I just bought a set of solid face rotors. I'm convinced enough that nothing but solid goes on my car(s). This is my favorite quote: Yes you did. Super Street and Turbo magazines. What great resources they are. Taking automotive advice from them is equivalent of taking medical advice from Dr. Nick on the Simpsons.

What was good about that forum was they stuck to the topic, no "You @$@!($"
I always thought holes in the rotors didn't make sense. All for show, :p
