Hey Oreif, I bet the RFT crew just loves the free advertising. I bet Cliff Pennock is really thrilled about it, too. [This message has been edited by Blacktree (edited 03-18-2008).]

As for just racing for "fun" - that's already been addressed. Fine if between friends, but it's unrealistic to expect a vendor to race anyone who dares to challenge him without compensation to make it worth the time and expense. A "friendly" challenge is typically made one-on-one, between friends.
I don't think he wanted someone to accept his challenge - he just wanted to sound impressive by making the challenge.

maybe not in the fiero community but in other racing circles, subaru for example. the venders go out of their way to blow everyone out of the water in races. why? because it gets them a lot of business when people see how fast they can make a car go.

I can agree with that, but I also won't limit just who "he" is.

ok its definitely time to let this thread die. just let it go this argument will never stop and i am kicking myself for trying to stick up for archie. ok so it doesnt matter what engine you run in your car its what YOU want so whatever anyone else says is a moot argument. i dont know which one is faster but who cares, you guys have to remember us fiero owners should stick together and help eachother out, not bash eachothes faces in. lets just let this die already.

I'd say everyone, including myself, has put too much time into this thread. And I just read the first few and last few posts and then posted this. People, STFU and go work on your cars. Every time you post something insulting, we all lose respect for you (by "you" I mean anyone and everyone involved).

3/4 of this thread talks about Shaunna/Shaunbag and the RFT forum, So how is it "advertising"?
because I added links?
If Cliff wants them removed, I'll remove them.

!! NNOO !!
some people love this stuff. just look at the pages! 9 in under a week!! this is hot stuff!!
and the best part?? its not your car! why do you care what someone else does with their car?!? bwahahaha! dummy!
this thread is like the mighty amp that goes to 11. no matter what you say - it goes to 11.
sorry guys - poeple love the 350. its a "standard", and everyone knows it. no matter what you do - when you say "I put a 350 in it" - you need to say no more. probably what the "anti SBC" guys are crying about. they can do all the tweeking & tuning and build the ultimate powerplant - noone will care - they hear "350" and the contest is over. 350 wins. and that is the crux of the hate.
why ya think they are sooo bent on dyno sheets? and - even more important - why they never actualy want to race - just see dyno sheets. does that not taste funny to anyone? no races - just the sheets. try and figure that one out. I know why. but, I'll let y'all stew on that. because really - the race is what counts.

Wasn't always this way.
Back during the muscle car era, small block Chevys (yes, including the 350) were looked down, yes DOWN upon by those of us with big block Chevys (396, 427, 454).
Ah, the good old days...
