Nice find! thanks for sharing that :)
I think its hilarious all the conceded people posting their own cars in there... i mean c'mon.. really?
*crosses fingers* not me not me not me not me
I kinda want to stay out of that thread to be honest, seems like its between you and Tim so I'll just post it here (where it will inevitably get lost in the huge number of posts)
I can certainly respect where you stand, as the owner of this site. However, I can also see where Tim is coming from as well. He's not a vendor on a lot of those other sites he listed, but still uses his legal name as his screen name. If he had never been an advertiser on this forum, I don't think it would even be an issue (you never know).
I just skimmed through it and am a little confused about what will happen to Tim's account? He will become just a regular member, with normal user capabilities or would he be farther restricted? IMO I wouldn't restrict him more than a normal member (since that's what he'll be at that point). If Tim is up to no good, which I doubt will happen again, the evidence will come forward and present itself just like it did before (it took how many days?).
I didn't even see his signature in the first place though, I honestly haven't had a chance to get on this site for more than a few minutes a day til yesterday (don't worry, the sky is still blue I just checked LOL)
one thing I think is kinda out of line is your sig? It's not hard to look through everything and see that Mike has a dynojet and you and Mike are personal friends, and Tim has a mustang dyno and seems to be having a fallout with you based off of the other thread.508 Hp 548 TQ SAE on an inferior Dynojet Dyno
Again, I don't know what was in his signature, but for you to remove his and to take a shot at him in yours is kinda a low blow. Best way to get rid of the drama is to remove temptation.
The dyno thing in my sig was more of a joke and has been there for quite some time. It really has nothing to do with Timmy directly, just all the people who argue one is better than the other. A dyno is a tool and only as good as the tuner who is using it IMO. Your interpretation of my statement makes a perfect example of why there are so many problems online, you could take my statement a hundred different ways.

I read what happened btw you and tim, lou and i personally dont want to get involved just for the fact that you and tim are both good friends of mine and i dont want to do any harm to either friendship i have with you guys cause i have known both of you for a few years now and you both help me out alot with parts and help.. So i am going to have to keep out of it and hope you two can resolve it...
So what if you lost to a modified neon. in the end he still drives a neon and you have a cobra.
^^^
I'll try and keep this short.
I have only met Timmy one time and that was at the All Ford Columbus, Swap meet (which BTW, I thought was a joke). He seemed to be a super nice guy and if I didn't like Street Lethal so much I would give him or Mike my business.
I have always thought that there have been certain vendors on here that have got special treatment. I know we all have certain ones we go to and reley on. Like myself that goes to Terry, at Street Lethal Perf. He can do no wrong with me and i know with several others. I also know he (Terry) doesn't get on here much because he see's the stuff that has gone on between Mike, and Timmy, and doesn't want to be caught in the middle but sometimes does. (Sorry Terry, please don't hate me. LOL).
So with that being said Lou...Do i feel your "out of line"? No, no, no!.. It is your site and you clearly made the rules to what you wanted. If peeps don't like it then thats something they have to get over.
I truly hope this has not hurt anyones feelings. I'm just giving my .02
Happy Turkey Day

Kevin, thanks for your input!!! I just want to be clear to everyone, im not asking for people to take sides with me or a shop at all. As far as im concearned, there is enough Mustang work available on this board to keep everyone busy and all the shops are more that an hour apart. Most problems here have not been caused by any shop, its their patrons who thrive on stiring the pot and they should be ashamed. For every problem on here there are 200 - 250 people who visit daily that see it and form their own opinions on things read here. (Truth or Not) These opinions affect peoples lively hood that puts dinner on their familys table. So someone thinks their cute by playing subtle games but in reality it may have just pissed someone else off and they will never give the shop any consideration for business based on bullshit. Sorry for the ramble but this is my take on it.

Well said Lou.
That is why I said I would give either Tim, or Mike my business if Terry wasn't so good to me. I don't go buy what anyone says about one shop. If someone says its bad or they do bad work i will try them anyways just to form my own opinion. I personally think they all do great work.
I hope this can be worked out between all involved.

Thanks for your input, Bo. I always appreciate your opinion and your always honest.
As far as the name change, he listed all national sites that unless he had more posted no one would know. Its not fair to the other vendors for him to retain his business name on here. He goes by 7.5 hotrod on pittspeed.

Honestly, it should be put in the black hole of death. Guilt or not. Anybody can see it and new members would see it and run to him if they are close. Or start shooting PM's. Which for some reason was thought that I did and I clearly dont. I believe thats where our friction came from. There is a good bit more to it and if you wanna discuss it you can PM me. Unless you want to air it out in public. There was a good bit of untrue shit said that got back to me the last couple weeks. Another reason I stopped updating my wire tuck thread.

I didn't know any of the previous things, like I said, I've been kinda out of it for a while I have no problems admitting that I don't always know what's going on
The problem with electronic communications like message boards/email/text, you can't really read how the person says something or means something - and when you think somebody is going to react a certain way, it's easy to take what they say in that manner. The more tension that people sense between them and the more they interact electronically, the worse off the situation will get - simply because things will be taken the wrong way.
With that out of the way, I forgot he goes by that on PS. That might be more appropriate of a name change? I don't envy the situation you're put in though :(
oh for real?
I love Tim as much as anybody else, but I don't know how well he thought that through then
