Should got another GP - 10/23/11 07:00 AM
Dont get me wrong, I do still love my Bonnie, but I just have to vent a little. These guys over at Bonneville Club remind me a little of ClubGP. It kind of like a "follow the leader" thing. There are several moderators who are extremely intelligent guys, but if you mod your car in nay way that they dont recommend, then the ridicule starts about you are ignoring their advice.
Case in point, I started my project of replacing upper/ lower intake gaskets and I posted a pic of the parts I have prepped for install. I painted my valve covers and UIM, and I purchased a ZZ airbox. The comments I got simply painting things are just unreal and they shun anything but an Intense FWI.
I already got the whole "shouldnt have used drilled/slotted rotors" routine and now this is getting old.
You join a board for group advice and pointers on project work to make things go smoother. Differences of opinion are expected, but that no sense not to offer advice on getting the work accomplished.
I gained a lot of knowledge during my time here and I took very little flak in the process. This was my most successful board experience bar none, and I thank you guys for that.
