    I haven't hung out at either shop lately (last 2 months or so) but it still seems like there are loyal Tintmasters customers who won't hang out at SLS and vice-versa. Does it suck? Yup, it sure does, but I don't see that changing anytime soon.
    Not saying that those people don't exist but they are NOT the majority.

      Well.. I am an unbiased customer; and wouldn't lean 1 way more-so than the other..
      And I'll probably get quotes from both of them this coming spring; for a clutch install...

        Winterbeater meet, I'm down....
        Chuck, I know what you mean with the whole mods shpeel. The reason I mainly dont even bother posting up new parts or whatever is because I will more than likely just get bashed... Like right now, I'm sure no one cares I will have a 13's second all motor honda next year, because its not a 12 second car, and because "NA is gay!" Oh well, Haters will be haters...

        no race car? becuz homeowner...

          Nobody bashes you for the car you own Joel, they just place bets on how long you'll own it for 😛

                      Shit, my car has been down for going on 7 months now, and I get calls all the time...cricket chirps...

                      All kidding aside, I know what you're saying, Parker.

                      And Joel, fuck what anyone thinks. I could post up my parts listing, and I can guarantee, the first thing people will ask is: 'Where is the motor?' Don't worry about what others think, just get the bitch together, be sneaky or open about it, but don't slack off like I have, haha.

                      Oh, and does someone want to make a thread for the winter beater meet? I assume it's in Fargo, so it would be pointless for me to try to suggest a location.

                          Oh, my winter beater has a new top speed, too. I took it to 5k revs tonight for the first time. It felt rather liberating.

                          CA luv out.

                            Fargo needs a race track. Easier said then done. By race track i don't mean a drag strip. Drag racing is fine if thats what you like. Personally i don't care if your car is faster in the 1/4. I enjoy actually racing. To me the real test of man and machine is a real race track. A place where you can do some laps, learn the limits of your car and skill. I'm not trying to say drag racing isn't racing, it is all that you can do around here. Drag racing someone on the street isn't very smart. I know they have auto crosses around here but those are a joke. 30 second runs around a parking lot seems pretty pointless, to me anyway. I used to go to St. Cloud but something happened there and they don't race anymore or something. I did get to see a bmw in a very violent crash there, man was that something. I will race anyone around a track.

                              Scotts right. But, I highly doubt it will happen in my lifetime.
