To Blown Alcohol 57tbird..........
« on: December 24, 2008, 05:16:01 PM »
My suggestion is if you truly want to fit in here and gain knowledge from this site and contribute to it in the future is just back off posting and replying to every post on here that was posted by you or about you. And by that I mean everyone starting now.

Take some time to just read what is going on here and take that knowledge and apply it to the car you plan on building.  Ask questions related to that build, now or in the future.

Take this simple approach and you will gain friends and be respected.  At least that is my take on it,

Sum

Well, it used to be Los Angeles . . . 50 miles north of Fresno now.
Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.

From the start of the Tbird guy epidemic, yrs truly has been confused by this "Internet Diahrrea" of plageristic entries, current stuff off other websites, and so on, as to what the gentleman's motives might be.
Some  has great historic value, undoubtedly, but a simple reference to the source (and let the Landracing viewer look it up his/her self) as opposed to taking up huge amounts of band width or the ether, or however we get this stuff posted would to me make more sense.

It ain't like the guy knows it all. He, like FR, is good at research.
Maybe his calling is at the Library of Congress to compile a Landspeed history for future generations.

He's apparently not contemplating a build, maybe because he didn't seem to make competitive power in the West Coast Funny Car Association and although he has an NHRA Top Comp (Sportsman) number, research indicates he's not run a race.
