I don't think this guy likes 'us'...
He has a '69 Camaro, an '83 911, and an opinion about the people that frequent this site...

Here's my favorite quote from his post:
"I am having problems with the car and have posted a few times regarding the problem and I get some ideas that are pretty lame, with no real mechanics or DIYer's that have a clue what symptoms are and how to correct them. In a word, worthless. One guy actually told me the problem that I am having is that I don't drive it enough, and put some techron in it and change the oil! He actually said the car was lonely! Anyway, I enjoy this site and everybody here seems to be WAY more mechanically inclined than the nerds on the Porsche site. I am a car guy, not a Porsche guy." I believe you get what you pay for. |

What a d1ck! I hope he never visits again. If he is such a technical wizard himself, why did he "replace every electrical known to man", then visit this site and ask for help? If he had any technical ability he could have tried to troubleshoot the problem and not just replace stuff. Oh well, a fool and his money are parted. 69 Camaro.....wonder if he has all of his front teeth

His car probably stumbles in first , fourth and fifth as well. He just hasn't figured out that he has a five speed yet.

well, that was my badge picture until they fired me. Something about me shooting at a couple of people who looked cross at me. Thankfully the USPS is always looking for a few good men...

Hey guys....cut this moron a bit of slack.
After all, he did try to solve his car's problem by replacing the airbox straps.

As I posted on the other thread, the problem with his car is probably just a bad case of instant karma . . .

I can't believe how quick people are to judge, he probably didn't stay around long enough to get the information.

That guy better wake up or I'm sending my associates over to his house and take his 911 to a better home
"I enjoy this site and everybody here seems to be WAY more mechanically inclined than the nerds on the Porsche site. I am a car guy, not a Porsche guy." Darren Webb, refering to the other site. Um...one of the reason I hang out on Pelican is because we like to work on our cars! Someone is a little pissed he didn't get instant gratification. Well Darren, have you solved your problem yet, since you are so good with your tools and have such good mechanical knowledge? Your camaro is good off the line, but the engineering that went into that car was taught in my 7th science class grade class ..does that make me a nerd?..as we like to say in the motorcycle world.."even a monkey (or a really good Camaro wrencher) can go fast in a straight line" Last edited by MotoSook; 07-25-2003 at 04:15 AM.. |
