Yes, I live to Lie and Decieve.

Okay, I've had it. Yes, it is true, this juncture in my life has been extremely stressful. Work has been insanely busy with no after peak drop off...only an increase in bussiness. Girlfriend has been demanding beyond all beliefs and has been laying the pressure on to take the relationship "To the Next Level" when we cant even get by without arguing over stupid crap for 2 days. I just spent a good some of money getting my car back on the road, and have spent 12 hours Plus on Saturday and Sunday for 2 1/2 months straight getting it on the road.

One thing I dont need is to be called a liar, or embellisher directly or indirectly on my favorite internet site.

To those Bozo's. Look. I'm a 26 year old proffesional. I am a manager at a shipping company. A major freaking shipping company. I can balance my personal budget on my nose while juggling productivity at work, and preparing for the arrival of auditors. I cross all "T's" and dot all "I's".

I have gone through 6 years of college, and have 3 degrees to show for it. I have been teaching myself Physics (Astro Physics), and History for a few years now, and look to in the future get at least a four year degree in physics.

I am somewhat of established artist in Fayetteville. And, a decent amount of people who arent military know me in this town.

Time is little, and rest is even rarer still.

Why would I lie, or emblish on my posts? I guess its to make myself feel important to someone,or to impress someone. Look, impressing people is far from what gets my jollies off. In person, I rarely talk myself up, or boast. When conversation arises on something I know, or do well, I speak and bring something to a conversation...other wise I say little.

Why do you think I would lie to you all???? Sedanman...Tell me. I want to hear what it is you have to say. Since your so good at analyzing patterns, and obviously use such elusive details to come up with FBI quality phsycological profiles...I'm just dying to hear. (Oh...Criminal Justice is one of my degrees...and I exccedded at it...read a little law to)

Why is it you and a handfull of others think I am lying? Is it because perhaps your subscrition to such stero types against the Modular engines keep you from perhaps realizing certian things???

You know, I take pride in myself, and my friends for the engine we have built for my car. My friends are extremely proud of it, and us also. It turned out to be alot more than we expected. Forgive me for having pride in what it is that I work so F'in hard for, and have put so much blood sweat and tears into. Yeah, that dent in the drywall of the shop is from me getting pissed at a motor mount bolt, then throwing the ratchet, then cussing everything in site...But you know what...all of our scraped knuckles, time and devotion was more than worth it. I am proud of it.

Being proud of my machine give me personally no reason to lie, or over exageratte. Lying would only detract from the feeling of accomplishment of what my friends and I have created, and are still creating..tuning...and finishing. It would only be a put down to what we have done. I am not disapointed in anyway from what I have assembled, in all honesty, it far exceeded my conservative expectations.

Yes, if I was disapointed and had waisted money, I would see twhy you all would think I had incentive to lie, and decieve...Even if I personally was disapointed though...I would still not lie. I would find out what was wrong...what went wrong...and if it could be adjusted. Yes, more power is always better, thats why there are still things on my list to do, but EVERYONE is that way that loves racing. A true racer wouldnt really be satisfied till he has taken things to the limit, be it of technology, or his pocket book.

Plain and simple, the kills I post are actual events that have happened, regardless of what you all believe.

I have to little spare time to worry about impressing a bunch of people I dont even know. It just doesnt make sense to me...I'm more mature than that.

I dont know what you alls problems are, but if you all still insist that I'm lying....or embellishing....Heres a big fat middle finger to you.

Oh...and any serouis racers knows that to compare dyno readings from one dyno to the next from diffrent dynos is pretty useless. Just ask anyone that knows that much...If you use the same dyno then the results are comparable....but from one dyno to the next is good for just about nothing. That is one thing that if one read between the lines good enough would even be able to pick up from magazines....

Ask the people who do it for a living..Not just racing..or building race cars, but people whom also build and tune engines for everyday people...Steve Ashworth ring a bell to anyone here??? He's as good as they get. He'll also tell you straight up without trying to sell you something.

I wonder if some of you even know how there are diffrent types of dynos...and how there results vary.

I dont know what some of you alls problems are, but it is really starting to get on my god dam nerves. If you dont beleive me, or like me, then dont read my crap...simple isnt it? Or does that concept go right over your head? Probably so. Dont dare call me a liar though. That is one thing I'm not.
