Please clarify what part of my post is B.S.? The driving part or the religious part?
I'm a lifelong drag racer (I won my first trophy in 1964 at Mickey Thompson Drag City in Fontana, CA) and try to accelerate my race cars rapidly as possible, spinning the tires defat that effort. I've never been a fan of those that do smoky donuts or burn outs at car shows to impress the crowds with the wasting of tires This is America, the best country on Earth with a constitutional right to free speech. The WOKE crowd can stick their politically correct agenda up their rear where the Sun doesn't shine in my personal opinion hammer: Sorry you are so easily offended, make peace with God and ask for salvation to help you reach happiness

Let's take a moment to realize that you are making a reply to me 16 HOURS AFTER your first reply to me.
Pretty sad attempt to troll with the same bait.
I was worried that members of the site would be upset with me after my response to you.... However, I have received 2 PMs and 3 Emails celebrating the way I spoke towards you.
Let that sink in. Listen more, talk less. You'll be better for it.

Have you ever raced anything other than in a straight line?

I am still trying to cope with how this young man passed away . Been snowmobiling my whole life in WI and the U.P.
Thousands and thousands of miles on the trails - I have seen everything on the trails , and in the bush
Honestly your life flashes by you every time your on a snowmobile , inches away from trees , inches away from other sleds , sometimes at well over a 100 mph
Offtrail , buried tree stumps , rocks etc
I have lifted sleds off myself , wife , friends , so many times I lost count
I see possibly he was highmarking with friends in the mountains - Where was his friends ? What was he wearing for protective gear ? I would obviously assume a helmet , a chest protector ?
Man the only conclusion I can think of , he was knocked unconscious by the sled on top of him , couldn’t breathe buried in the snow in the mountains
Maybe a handle bar hit him in the chest or
He had to know the area well from what I have read
Man so sad - Sorry for going off topic , but just trying to put the pieces together
I young man that lived on the edge constantly, and then to die on a snowmobile in the mountains
God Bless Him , and his family

Nope, I've had the opportunity to drive an offroad desert racer years ago in the Baja 1000 but passed on that based on how rough those race vehicles beat you up while driving them to be completive, I don't like pain. I've rode off road motorcycles (many different sizes from 90 CC Honda step through up to a 650 CC Honda set up to race in the Baja 500 set up by Al Baker years ago) to 500 CC two strokes in the Mojave Desert for a lot of years for pleasure. I've got hurt on them more than once also I've own and use ski boats, dune buggies and a lot of different motorcycles to ride off road as well as in the sand dunes in SO CA I have help several different roundy round racers in SO CA, we ended up making them faster by focusing on attacking one issue at a time, I did learn that the motor is not the most important part of those car, to win races the car has to be better than all the other cars out there racing from the front bumper bolts to the rear ones. Same thing on the driver, they have to be driven to win and learn how to lose and learn from both experiences to get better and faster . I am a commercial instrumented rated pilot with a little over 1100 hours total time as pilot in command. I don't make comments on here to insinuate anything, if I think something is wrong, I'll say it in print outright on here, as many of you know, I have been truly blessed in my life, THANKS be to God Any other questions or comments? BTW, I don't own a "Smart Phone" so my replies and using the internet are based on when I want to get on my desk top computer that gets turned on and off when I use it. The last thing about Ken Block is that he died doing what he wanted to do. It is to bad that the video camera mounted on his helmet broke through his helmet and kill him May God have mercy on his soul

No one cares. You have mentioned those things ad nauseum in a million other threads.
You have no idea how to shut the FU, do you? Time to set yourself a timer. When it hits 0:00, that's is enough internet for the day.
Stop trying to dig "up". It don't work, son.

He was responding to a question asked by A12...
This internet stuff most be more serious than I thought. Lots of hurts feelings around here. Too bad...
Because, A12 is too nice to say it. But I aint. Seriously, what does "IFR Pilot" time have to do A12's comment? The whole deal is BS just like the comment that started the whole caper.

I love watching the videos. The Mustang and truck MOREso since they closer match what I would drive. The import FWD cars are nimble but sound terrible.
