Why so many haters on HT?
The anger on this board just baffles me...
People flame away at my products and they haven't even seen one in person, let alone spoke to me, stopped into my shop, looked at the cars they are on etc etc. etc.
What started out a few weeks ago as me simply stating that 321 was better then 304L turned into a bunch of hate mongers destined to bash, trash and crash everything I state...
I myself fed into this and found myself starting to trash back, just to defend myself and my product...I slipped down that slippery slope myself...
It always amazes me when I go to the races how even those who know me from the boards, come up to me and person and are nice as ever and full of props about my 10 second drag truck, but get them back on the keyboard and they turn into a different person. A disrespectful, nasty, excuse for a human being intent on only hurting others...Why I ask?
Yes I made posts that were cocky and confident, but they were in no ways unfounded or without some sort of experience...I have a tatoo of a toyota symbol on my damn arm for petes sake, Im bound to be a little passionate and cocky...but I can and have backed it up..it hasn't been unuseful hatefullness...
Ironically today, I just received an email from a fellow minnesotan who runs a minnesota import racing board, he said he was getting rid of the board...he said he had had it with all the hate, anger, flaming and egotistical attitude of everyone posting on the boards...
This hate has got to end...None of us(me included) would act this way towards each other in person, why on earth is it acceptable to do once we sit behind a key board? Do we just sacrifice everything that is good about us for the sake of our Ego's?
It is a very disheartening occurance...
At any rate, I for one am going to tone down my ego and keep the passion on a tight leash...those who know me in person know that my passion for import racing is true and sincere and not just an ego trip, those on the boards, not knowing me, have probably taken some offense to my eagerness...
I thinks its sad though...My posts about the dyno numbers that we here at Super T and the owners of the vehicles and operators of the dyno were all so excited about have been met by a select few who serve only to discredit what others are so proud of...To those people, take a look in the mirror, hurting others isn't going to make you any better, its only dragging you down. I do not see what pride you find in what you are doing...
Oh well...My product and dyno numbers speak for themselves, as does my passion for the sport...Im not going anywhere thats for damn sure, so flame away if thats what makes you feel good.
And not all on Honda Tech are like this...some are people I would really like to meet in person some time at the track so that we can further share the passion of import racing!

VOTE for SuperT lol....
j/k dude I hear you there's lots of hate going around... just don't pay no attention to it.... that's what makes it worse people start going back and forth about who is right and who isn't .... sometimes is just hilarious reading some of the arguments though...
