"Dunning-Kruger Effect"
-a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge.

Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue.

Very sad to read this. Never met him but hoped some day I might. It's good to get around folks who've been around as long as him, to listen and learn. Enjoyed reading his posts and interacting with him on this forum. RIP sir....

Ive known Floyd for over thirty years, we raced together at the different socal,nevada and arizona tracks.We would pit close to each other when we could so we could do our bench racing between rounds. When he gave Marty the Hay Hauler we couldnt continue that trend, but I kept track mostly on DRR. Another good one gone.

Very sad to hear the news about Floyd. Never met Floyd but appreciated and understood his passion about drag racing and his Family, especially his Family.

God Speed Floyd.
