    Tell me again how this is not insulting or putting someone down? Remind me how you became the "all knowing" final word or in charge of keeping order in the forum.

    I recommend practicing what you preach. This will help.

    Easy, man, we're just talkin'. We're Juuuust talkin.

    I do make some stupid, sarcastic comments. At the same time I've never tried to convince anyone that I'm an authority on anything. I stay open minded when it's clearly a knowledgeable individual with greater experience than myself doing the talking. This includes when it's you doing the talking. It's called a JOKE.

    If we go back and look at every post of yours since you arrived here, every single one has either been trying to sell us something or remind us of how many years you've been in the game. Anyone to question your wisdom has been ridiculed and called amateur. And you can't see why you might get a ribbing from the dorks?

    Call me names, suggest I have no life, it is no matter. First beer is on me when we meet. :cheers:

    I hate you Perrone! You owe me a computer that does not have soda spewed on it.

    I also got some disapproving looks in class when I saw that. Apparently its frowned upon to be on the interwebs during classes.

    Sounds like you're putting someone down with derogatory comments to me. I think your comments are "pathetic"

    Until now, ive been keeping quiet. Try and Find something derogatory in any of my prior posts.

    I dont feel your posts are pathetic at all . They seem well thought out and are obviously based on yrs of racing.

    So, "because you haven't done it before" means its ok to do so now? Can you explain that logic to me? Does that mean that since I have not cheated on my wife that it is ok to do so now?

    I also note that you have chosen not to respond to any of my direct questions. I find that curious.

    Even the newest member of this board has something valuable to add to any conversation, and more importantly even the oldest member has something they can learn from each one. Just because you choose not to agree does not make another opinion wrong.

    My $.02

    Huh?

    What questions?

    I dont agree with what?

    Where did i say i dont agree? Op asked when to change chain. I offered my opinion based on 20 yrs of racing. Then dumbass comments ensued.

    Tell me what i missed?

    Ill play your game.

    Just out of curiosity, what brought you to this forum motoracerx?

    Do you do STT track days or just come here to sell stuff? You have all this experience and seem to want to offer some of what you've learned to others but you also seem to have a lot of contempt for anyone who doesn't have 20 years of experience.

    Just curious. For example I started doing track days with STT three years ago when I started riding motorcycles so it makes sense that I come back here because I've learned a little bit here and made a few friends along the way.

    You seem pissed off half the time so I'm just wondering what you get from the experience. Honest question.
