I made the mistake of carrying my disagreements with racepar1 publicly, recently on my FS thread and was harshly warned by the mods. I don't want anyone to get pinked or banned over a dumb argument.
Since this is a topic of "Skid Plates, Low Cars, Aquaplaning, Pride & Prejudice". I would like to chime in on the builds and materials used. If you enjoy working on cars and enjoy building stuff from scratch and it works to your satisfaction. What makes that build any wrong, compared to other peoples projects?
Your not going around shoving your new found idea's down peoples throats just because its right or the wrong way to do it. You build it because you do it for yourself, and nobody else. We all wish we had the funds to build proper cars out of "gold". But we don't. ADMIT IT, we are ALL cheap in some way, maybe more or less than others. Regardless, why are we all still here? It's called.... passion my friends.
I heard a famous saying from a great entrepreneur back in the day. "The best way to predict the future is to invent it." Take that quote and make it your own..... "The best way to predict the future is to create it."
The best example on the net.

Go out, be creative. Do something different. The big name guys at RWB, LB Performance all started somewhere. Look at the $$$ they are making now. And I'm sure it wasn't pretty when their ideas started from scratch. But most importantly, they just didn't stop from there. They kept going because they knew it could be better.
When did building a car become a fighting competition and that his/her car has a bigger di*k than yours?
........Carry on about yourself, and most importantly..... STAY humble. You know how the old saying goes. It's the quiet ones that you gotta watch for.
