Food for thought...it does take someone incredibly foolish to do all that much bragging...

He did manage to create a thread that has turned into a mobile perpeteum. Goes on and on, even after he left.

Turns out Mal is an all around family entertainer !

The best part about this whole thread is that I'm the only one who really got anything out of it.

When it became clear to Jeff that nobody was going to show up at Willow Springs for the trackday, he called me and told me that I could have his entry fee ... which he, in turn, had recieved from Dan Byers.

SO, Dan "one-of-the-nicest-Pelicans-out-there" Byers, THANK YOU FOR THE DAY AT WILLOW SPRINGS. I'm buying the first round at Outback!

And the the rest of you goofy goobers - Thank you for blowing hot air up each others butts for 36 pages because you saved me $150 and turned my day at the office into a day at the track.

SUCKERS!!!

He's also trying to buy a car from a guy who doesn't know what it's worth on Early 911S forum.

How about if you took out the alternator and installed a gererator in it's place? Then would it go 165?
Aw crap, then it wouldn't be stock any more. Never mind.
