what the hell? I listed everything on mycar, explained its suspension 
characteristics, and then said I would not recommend it for 
autox..whatthe heckis so inaccurate with that, you need to rearead.
I did not leave anything out. you in your own little world must have.

sure if you tear it all down into single components like you JUST 
did, its all good for auto x, but i 'll state again for your deaf 
ears, my setup would not be recommended for auto-x, you would turn 
better time with a car that gave a bit more than mine.

yup.

well I am to but hes just as clueless and the recipt doesn't say. 
Guess you'll just have to wonder for the rest of your life, please
don't loose any sleep.

no, I'm charging you $20 for the pain in the ass youre being. and 
Ididn't say I dont like you, I may not like your rebuke to every 
little comment just because in your little world you think it's an 
impossibility, You know your stuff but sometimes you come across like 
you're some allmighty god and that if YOU'VE never done it or 
experienced it,it must be impossible. I don't see too much BS 
floating around this list, but I suppose we should award you the "BS 
Patroll" list badge. Thing is, your disbeliefs are unwarranted. 
Whythe hell would I need to lie to you, I'me sure not out to impress 
you, just trying to share a little bit about my setup.

> So why did'nt you say that?

jeesh, I DID, i listed my suspension components then said I had no 
body roll then said i would not recommend it,tell me mister allmighty 
what did i fail to add? Just because im not like you and write pages 
and pages AND pages of e-mails to this list I make my point and then 
menatlly sane people have written me back persoanlly asking specific 
questions about the uspension and my car and I have answered them, 
saving bandwith.

yeah chief I did for almost a year, goid it was nice not to listen to 
your miniscle arguments. And i didn't recollect any dipstick in any 
of my posts, you're memory must be lapsing...again.

for once Mannix, just let it go.
