As Chris has alluded and I said in my PM to you, I (we) have the greatest of respect for the OG people. Many of us have spent alot of $$$ with OG and never had anything but great service.
Chris, you can come down off your soapbox now
The point on wanting to know why people wanted to know why the thread was closed and by whom was due mostly in part to the new "management" and hoping it didn't take a turn for the worse around here. Censorship anyone???

That is pretty unfair. Why do you think that 'management' closed this thread?
If it is such a big deal, did anyone report it so that 'management' would even be aware of the question. "Management' does not read each and every post in each and every thread on each and every forum.

Like I asked - Did you report the post to a moderator for this board? Every post has a button to do so, or you can click on the moderator name at the bottom of the screen to PM them. Unless you make a moderator (of this forum) aware of an issue, it isn't necessarily going to get attention.
Besides, it appears that it was accidentally closed and has been re-opened. So much for all the outrage over censorship and new management.

I have the highest respect for Stacey and OG Racing, both as a company and as a site sponsor.
To try to quash the fears of "new management" censoring threads I pointed out that it was the original poster who closed the thread. I did not think that it was right of me to try to hazard a guess as to why it was closed -- it turns out it was a simple and honest mistake.
I hope that the next time all the conspiracy theorists give everyone (IB, Admin, Mods, and Sponsors) the benefit of the doubt before coughing up their own hair-brained explanations.

I have to admit I was the first one to post the possibility of it being the new management. I actually meant it tongue in cheek. I should have anticipated the usual "Off on a wild *** tangent". My apologies.
But you other jokers out there sure jumped on the conspiracy bandwagon didn't you?

I feel as though my cognitive faculties have got up and risen against me.
I have a new found respect for all the parents on this board as well as my own. I have to admit, when we had lunch in Georgetown with you and your lovely family, all I could tell my wife was, WOW!!! Todd and his wife are great at this and I only hope we can have half the patience you showed.

The best part about parenting is that you really have no choice but to succeed. In addition to my wife, my kids are the very best thing in my life.
They always surprise you.
My four-year-old is always saying "Daddy, come here, I need to tell you a secret." So I lean over, at which point she typically whispers "I love you!"
Well, earlier in the week she calls me over and says "Daddy, I really need to tell you a secret." So, very happy at the thought that Sofia is going to tell me that she loves me, I lean over, at which point she says "I am going to marry Andersson," who is one of her four-year old classmates.
It took all of my willpower not to say "The hell you are!"
It only gets better from here . . .
P.S. I hope all is going well . . .
