    You get a thick skin when you're in a public position. But this board surprises me.

    Among those bashing on me - NOPE
    guys who have asked me for parts, - NOPE
    asked for my business, - NOPE
    taken my money, - NOPE
    begged to be in the magazine, - CRAP, I'M GUILTY
    hung out relentlessly, - NOPE
    taken my beer, - NOPE
    claimed to know me when they've barely met me, - NOPE
    and failed on promises to me. - NOPE

    I think Scott Clark would be the only one to have the stones to say any of this stuff in person. And, Scott, don't you have better things to do?

    I hold none of it against you. Carry on.

      hung out relentlessly, - kind of, but you put me to work and I loved it.
      taken my beer, - Ok , you bought me one at the casino in Wendover.

      • I've missed out on a few things here....Stitch is gone?
        I've also driven to Alaska a few times and while it's easier now than it was in the late '70's, it's also not an easy task.
        Winter time wouldn't be my first pick, but way easier than in the Spring time.

            • That was fun to watch. Perhaps a bit painful for the guys. And people wonder why some of us keep coming back to Drag Week.

You can tell a story like none other. When you tell the story in HRM it will probably still be entertaining. I think what most of us are trying to say is we don"t care for a mad thrash to put something together to take on a epic trip. I love trips . For me in this case,was the buying of a car that was too big to be pulled with the Ranchero.(which is probably why you didn't rent a tow dolly to get it home) I you had gone with plan C as plan B it wouldn't have been so bad . Now really though I want another story like "the bad seed" that Steve M. did. Also, wasn't we going to get something else on the hacked up vette. I'm wanting to see what was done with the front and rear suspensions and the drivetrain. I thought they were going into something. Back to the Ranchero, just actually race it in Baja like the originial story.
                Like I said , it was entertaining. would be better with out all the break downs. The Ranchero should be their official road trip car. It has charactor. Also if they kept it.......it should stop breaking. The vid was great Dave. Mike ......great stuff also.

                • P.S. I knew you were not going very far or over 30mph with that 55. I tried flat towing a 78 blazer that had no plates with my 82 Caprice to a off-road park. I wade it around the block . Not a country block, a city block . At 10 or 15 it wouldn't go straight. Still......Alaska? Seriously, Take it to Baja. You don't even have to race it. Use it as a race chase rig / video rig.

                  • Hey Fried Burger!! Get to wrenching on that F Bomb. Power Tour is just around the corner. You drive it the distance and will shut up all those big mouthed guys instantly. Don't even bother dragging it back to LA. Leave it in the midwest for Drag Week. The Raunchy Ranchero Fail will be forgotten.

                      • All nighters...been there, done that...for reasons many of you guys and gals will say WTF??... My son still does, ah. Youth!
                        They are hated... Makes us make stupid mistakes when one hit in the wrong place can be fatal to finishing...
                        Nowadays, I get the sleep and the younguns do the all night stuff... So I can drive to the arena ( nope we don't call em tracks... Usually pits. )

                        It would be nice to see Freiburger succeed a little more given his "help" from "sponsors"

                        • Was thinking about that I hadn't seen Freiburger posting here in awhile so I checked, his last post was in May of this year just to post some stuff about DW...... But fact is he's only posted twice since he posted his last post in this thread and that was almost a year ago...

                          Anyway congrats at Running DF off.............

                                He has time to talk with me on his facebook page.... Just saying..... But your probably right he's just busy.... It's just that I remember a time that he used to drop in and shoot the shit, it just seemed odd that after the last post he made in this thread that he really hasn't dropped in to do that..........
