Im Just Gonna leave this here....OG's Step on in!!
Holy crap, the bookmark and login still works! I was laughing my ass off at lunch trying to explain this place back in the day and just had to give it the “you had to be there” ending. Congrats to Ed/Kyle. But hey, since we got the band back together someone should point out that Shooter can still PMV.

Kyle's sponsorship proposal was a professional as I've ever seen; he has proven himself a skilled racer and self promoter - and his father builds, as my grandfather used to say "hard runnin' cars". I feel proud that our logo is on the Firebird, and our product is in both cars. (Converter in the dragster I believe).
Steve's original converter challenge turned out right after all.

It's true. The man can write some really bad a** checks! Take care. Tom Worthington
If it seems that bracket racing has gotten too expensive for you, maybe you are just doing it wrong.

I did enjoy buying parts and such from BTE- but if you can’t find a better ambassador for your company than Ed B*gley, I’ll respectfully buy from someone else. GC out..headed to take the BTE and BTE Bonus decals off my car..This message has been edited. Last edited by: Iforgot,

Agreed and it has been nice around here lately and we do not want to go back to it. This place has moved on and is better now.

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.

Let's not punish the kid for his dad's crimes.
It would be interesting to see if Ed were to come back, if he'd be a little different considering this arrangement.

Been watching Ed berate people on this board since the late '90s- never has he cut anyone any slack. I remember Ed used to say BTE was junk, ATI was gold, and the only real engine shop in the country was BSE POWER..

You mean cry babies that get there feelings hurt when he tell them what they don't want to hear in the first place.... Don't like Ed its pretty easy to use the ignore feature this board has... Ed has alot of good tech info like it or not! He should be allowed here period.
