I have to admit I'm trying really hard not to react to him.

I pesonally find his attidue VERY offensive.

May be in a few years he'll learn something about tact?

Maybe you should stop biting. In the oringinal thread you bit on something that didnt concern you and had a dig @ me because of it.

Two can play that game...

I commented because I found your comments offensive.....

I organised the Rolling Road day and even though most people expressed enjoying the event, found your input not constructive. Do you ever stop and think about how your words may effect others?

I put a lot of time and effort into doing this and I have to admit your blatent negative comments p1ssed me off.

While others may find it funny that you can openly tell anyone and everyone your opinion on any issue, I find your lack of discretion and tact annoying.

Anyway, to quote the logo on the T-shirt you wear to work.... "I hate people"

Personally I don't hate people, just some of them.

Rant over

My comments were sod al to do with you so whats your problem. They were directed at EAs procedures... not you.

You felt the need to say i was having a cheap shot, what do you expect me to say?

If you find me that annoying, dont speak to or reply to me. Nobodys forcing you to.

Unfortunately, with me. What you see is what you get.

Belive it or not, i dont like everyone either

Stop it both of you....

Bibo you did a great job organising the event. A lot of runs have been held there before and none of these complaints have been made in the past....

Frayz, you appear to be making some sense (as always) but the bibo-bashing is growing tiresome

I was stood with Sleeper Sy during his run & he said a lot of the noise on the rollers was due to his tyres. Not sure what he was running on but that accounts for some of the whirry noises.

Most of the smoke was something to do with "methanol".

If the smoke was burning your eyes it will most deffo have been Methanol.

Not a nice feeling.

Yes, it did sound noisey running down, I thought it mite be the tyres, as I have not run tyres that soft on a RR before - but in hindsight the bearing may have failed on the RR at that point or before on Budgies car.

Figures wise, it was fairly accurate, It pullled 1.8 bar and it gave 570, AVCR is set to 2.0 bar for road use and it normally pulls 600plus - but the previous owner always had problems on RRs get the load right as the torque and power curves are so steep.
