Re: T-Bone VS JSM where should it be settled
I don't think it is, Mike. I was just stating a fact that was public knowledge on this forum so I am not sure how that calls the kettle black. I made arrangements when the contestee was certainly available but yet was left empty-handed.
Mid-Ohio, Road Atlanta or Talledega (4 laps), you coordinate the time and set the challenge.....I will be there guaranteed unless it is raining or in the dead of winter. I shine on a road course or on curvy roads and have three road-race schools under my belt which helped develop me. I don't get much out of going in a straight line anymore and to be honest, never really did. You seem alot like me so far as what interests you so maybe you can relate to what I am saying. I grew up on bikes and shifter carts and both evolved around road tracks, and not a NHRA 1/4 mile track. Not against running down a 1/4 mile stretch but it doesn't excite me and one of the reasons the Syclone has been dormant for 2 years.
On a side bar note, I did fire the Sy up and drive it about 10 miles last Tuesday evening. Aired the tires up from 24 psi to 35 psi and refilled it up with hi-test fuel. Ran semi-good for sitting so long but at least Jeremy has motivated me to get that truck spot on and when I am done with it, I am coming to BG just for him :tup:

Re: T-Bone VS JSM where should it be settled
Some northerners don't care for southerners that are more successful than they.
Phase 1: As a result, a be-littling tactic is used to try to defamate the southerners goods and abilities (which are deemed superior in one fashion or another to theirs). In this instance, no love exists for the new 505 HP, 472 FPT, 3081 lb. Z06.
Phase 2: When that doesn't work, a poll is started to garner support from an already biased community and shroud it with dis-honesty to validate their claim/position.
Phase 3: The forum plays into their hand somewhat by casting a vote and the crowd cheers.
Phase 4: In the end, nothing avails and the southerners are still successful entrepreneurs with faster and more exotic equipment than the northerners and thus, envied by them.
You are witnessing phases 2/3.

Re: T-Bone VS JSM where should it be settled
My guess.....because I am in the dark as well. Everything was cool until Jimmy (my local Typhoon buddy) leaked I bought a Z06 and then here came the local northerners bashing the cars proven performance and my piloting ability.
Jeff wanted some of it at Bowling Green (I agreed IF the tags & registration came in on the car....it didn't).
Jeremy (his sidekick) volunteered Mike (his friend) to squash it in the twisties (huge miscalculated mistake but one that they wisely didn't show up to back-up).
Jeremy then challenges my Mustang and Syclone to a 1/4 mile run (desperate to win something....anything).
Jeremy then volunteers Mike to run the Z06 on a parking lot course in Nashville on a Sunday???
Jeremy then suggests a run at a LS1 event in Memphis (since my car is a LS1.....really, it is a LS7 but it's ok).
Jeremy suggests coming to my house to run the Z06 on a curvy road (another vain, miscalculated request)
Jeremy then volunteers the Florida gang to dethrone the Z06 during their event in Florida.
Jeremy then starts a poll asking the community for input on how/when to best try to defeat the Z06.
What's funny is none of this was pre-run through me. Me thinks Jeremy is a wee bit intimidated and wants someone somewhere with something hopefully faster than the Z06 to take it out. The earth will dissolve before his 11.9 Syclone will be up to the task so I have not even entertained running him and he is furiated which is obvious based on what you are now seeing
. He wishes for a run against my junky 92 Sy so I am gonna honor his request....working on it now.

Re: T-Bone VS JSM where should it be settled
You forgot phase 5:Southerner runs & hides behind keyboard for their lack of driving skills prohibt him from participating in any legal speed contest with his "exotic" sports car and his lack of automotive knowledge keeps him from getting his Syclone in any manner of working order.
The Sy/TY nation has spoke and wants to see your automotive expertise on display at nats 2009. Either accept or admit you are scared.
Of course we coluld also settle this with a eating contest. You up for for it?

Nope what I am saying is Shaun is a candyass and will never take zo6/protype sy/rustang to any racetrack.
Big mouth.No results.
I am under no illusion that a Sy/Ty/S-10 is egual to a zo6 with a semi compent driver. With Shaun driving I like our chances.

Re: T-Bone VS JSM where should it be settled
This is the second time you have stated something like this and the basis for my earlier comments regarding you having multiple "problems." If your statement above was actually the case, then those "northerners" would have targeted many more people than just you. Yet, you seem to be the only one of our very own "Donald Trumps" in this discussion. BTW, You aren't the standard for "success" here on this board, that is for sure.
From what I have read in the various posts about this topic, I think it has less to do with success and more to do with arrogance. I would change your statement to: "Some northerners don't care for southerners that are more arrogant than they." That makes it all much more understandable.

Re: T-Bone VS JSM where should it be settled
My comment about "northerners" is confined to the JSM crew (which is what this thread specifically involves). To my knowledge, you aren't part of the JSM crew so don't take anything I write personal.....it doesn't affect you!! Arrogant....yeah, maybe a bit. Cocky....yeah, maybe a bit. Confident.....yep, a whole lot.
If you own a Sy, Ty, Grand National, Jeep SRT-8, Challenger SRT-8, Dodge SRT-10, Toyota Supra, Mazda RX-7 R1, Porsche Turbo, Regal T-Type, Mustang Cobra, Ferrari, Z06, ZR-1....etc., those attributes come along with the purchase. Otherwise, we would be driving a Pinto, Aveo, Cobalt, Sprint, Chevette, Vega, Grand Am, VW bug, etc.
I didn't come on here bragging about my purchase of a Z06. I didn't come on here starting a blogging war that it would out-do anything in the nation. I didn't come on here challenging the forum that I was the best driver since bias ply tires were developed.....but I am sure NOT gonna sit on the sidelines and take cheap shots from my northern "friends" with their smart remarks when I know they aren't a bit what they claim to be. Really, Jeremy is the only loud one and probably the most arrogant, cocky and confident one of the bunch so if any of them feel touched, it should be him (which it appears to be) so sit back and enjoy the exchange. There is only one way this will be settled and it is NOT on this forum.

Re: T-Bone VS JSM where should it be settled
Wow, so we are back to the Z06 again. Dude, you are BARELY in the 11's with a modified Syclone.....barely! If you want a piece of the Z06, just say the word and let's get it scheduled but stop using Dobrick, Jeff and the Florida gang as decoys!!! Notice I said " if YOU want a piece of the Z06".
You make up your mind what you want and let me know but I am not bringing the Z06, the Syclone and the Mustang to prove a point. You said earlier (and I can attach the thread if required) that you wanted the my Sy (which will never run right, remember) against your Sy (once the cable is fixed, I am sure). I have already started doctoring it back to health.....if you want some of it, confirm it. I am coming to a track near you to prove against you a lesson you will have to endure for a looooonnnggggg time so enjoy the pre-game show as long as you like.....it will be short lived but please, in the meantime, confirm what you are challenging. Thank You.

Re: T-Bone VS JSM where should it be settled
Initially drag (although the internet is overflowing with video's of "novice" drivers running 11.7's with a Z06 in the 1/4; good drivers are pulling 10.9 - 11.1 on street tires). Then Jeremy made the mistake of mentioning twisties. I set up a location within a week and you know who came.....NOBODY!! All I got was a bunch of excuses why the location wouldn't work. Truth be told, there is 318 curves and they were concerned they would be going over one of them right near the start. Road course was suggested but a Turkish Monk given the stats of a Sy v/s Z06 will see the blatant writing on the wall.
The only way he stands an inkling of a chance is to run on a prepped track with sticky compound tires on his AWD turbo sled against a street car on street tires straight from the showroom floor. Unless, of course, he wants some of the red Sy which he claims will never run right no matter how much $$$$$ is thrown at it (haha).

I plan to run......to the nearest track you choose with the Sy or Z06.....again, whenever you choose one or the other but for Pete's sake, make up your mind so I (and everyone else on here) know what is going on.
