That's too bad people gotta lie about their timeslips on here!

I know a lot of people like to embellish about how fast their car is everywhere, but this particular thread was I hope one that had ACTUAL runs with videos and corroborating feedback about their times and speeds. It is a valuable resource for people looking at engine mods and swaps to decide and get an idea about just how fast a particular mod will make their fiero go. I am sorry to read that someone would try to tarnish that and I am glad that the truth has been brough out.... peace

WOW! Game. Set. Match.

I have never really understood why people want to post fraudulent information on the internet. If you have seen the picture, odds are, someone else has also, or can find it with a little research. In these cases, Google is NOT your friend.

When Cardomain first started, this fellow that I had met on there and myself went through the exotic car section, and proved many of the people that posted the pictures of the cars were not the actual owners. We had about an 8 out of ten success rate of the ones that we tried to disprove. If we could not find a picture, I would say in the comments: "Cool car, but fraud is rampant here. If you would not mind, place a cup turned upside down on the right rear of the (insert car). Then we will know that you are not just another person claiming to own an exotic."

Never received one picture, but I did get a lot of "I'm in Vancouver, and the car is in Miami" reply's.

Either way, back to the thread. I just had to comment. That was a big time bust.

It's sad to see such a good reputation for a car get screwed by a lair wanting to stroke his own ego.

I think there should be a new slip/video requirement

Well I ran low 8's on my stock Fiero...

In case it isn't clear... I'm kidding

Bump.

Am I the only one that's waiting for some form of an excuse or apology?

I am still not entirely convinced that it was actually Mr. Ferrari that posted that... it just doesn't sound like the guy I met last year... but who knows. He was dead honest about issues he was having with driving the car and he almost had a rear wheel bearing come apart on the way home from the Dell's last year... I dunno, just smells fishy to me. I guess if he never shows his face at any future local Fiero events around here, we will know... it would be a shame as well, it is a great car.

As for waiting for an apology on the Internet... have fun.

He was caught lying and hasn't posted on the forum since being exposed.
I seriously doubt we will hear from him ever again.

I am so glad that I read threads from start to current. That was entertaining. I know dark is a little rough around the edges but in all the reading I have done here and other forums to include clubgp involving dark, he seams right 99% of the time. Dark's comments on the slip led to me to a little research. Good find on that time slip AkursedX. You beat me to it. I have been browsing myself as a shot in the dark. (no pun intended)
