Default Re: New Project-Pushing the limits of the 2 bolt! on a Severe Budget

You guys are pissing me off Were the were you all in 2000???
I dropped at least $8000 converting my car to 4-bolt because all the geniuses on 3SI told me 2-bolts were junk. Everyone on 3SI told me the following was God's truth:

1) Matt Money is a miracle worker who can do things nobody else can
2) XWING is a miracle worker who can do things nobody else can
3) Everyone else with 2-bolt mains was one of the following: 1. lucky, 2 Posers who never race thier more than once or twice or 3. Rich bastards that would race thier cars, blow thier engines and buy another one.

I wouldn't call Matt or Xwings cars budget cars BUT 3S part cost at least 1/2 as much as they did back then.

I tried to find the old threads and I couldn't they were either lost or on starnet insrtead of 3si

P.S. Chris I hope your current position at 3SX is working for you. I always got the impression 3SX's race program was on such a tight budget that it was in danger of being over as soon as 3SX proved themselves. Maybe if you hadn't have been so sucessfull you will still have that job
