[QUOTE=Bob Rouleau;4498716]Apex - sheeesh such strong sentiments! Are you suffering track withdrawl?

Hey Bob,

Its true that I do get a little cranky when suffering from deceleration syndrome. As a result my post may have been a little harsher than originally intended. That being said the spirit of the post still rings true.

I was simply trying to say that Ron has an opinion and it’s an informed one at that. I strongly believe that he would welcome a debate on the topic but all that was being offered was jabs without foundation. If his opinion is that the RS is a POS then so be it. He's entitled to it. But what I had a problem with was him being ridiculed for being very disappointed with the gap between promise and reality where the marketing was concerned. Additionally his disappointment is with a gap that many of us including yourself have recognised.

I should be much better by Thursday when the G forces bring my mood to a happier balance.

I've boarded up the front windows should the occasional missile come from south of the road [/QUOTE]

Best,
I'm so happy right now I could just cry. This is what I've been missing this year. The "bitch talking" is great to see again. "I'm faster than you are and my dad can beat your dad". I really miss you guys.

Now go by some fresh rubber and lets settle this once and for all at Calabogie!!!! Everyone follow me!!!!!

Beside this forum, I never had the chance to really introduce myself to Bruce. Too bad Phillip can't come this week-end, he's doing the Rover thing in Montebello.

You can rent the system at Calabogie from 303Imaging. They will be happy to hook you up.

Apex - be wary. I hear that Ron lent Cavalino the special chip from his 996GT3. Don't place bets on the outcome in spite of the fact that the 968 Cab is a girly-man sort of car
Not as girly as a speed yellow GT3 mind you .. but that's another story<snicker>

BTW, what biatch talk yo talkin about yo?

Oh, oh - Ron's bringing the 6? Damn, I have to start thinking up excuses fast. He wouldn't believe Keith and I on how much the real tires would transform the car, but he also wouldn't quit trying on the stock tires and he had the RS flying last time at Calabogie. I must admit, it didn't look like he was having that much fun, but he was motoring.

Naturally, we discussed all the tricks, so he's coming armed and ready for bear. Anybody got some worn out PS2s I can use?

Keith, no Cup car on Thursday, ran out of time to go get it, so it's just the black beast again. Hope it stays in the low 20's, we'll make some power.
