    Well, I have been wondering if drilling a 17th hole in the hood scoop would boost horsepower without adversely affecting aerodynamics... :devil:

    And it gives you a chance to post a line like....I found a "how to" or the obd2 code listing over on another site, motoring alliance..... Er...************...
    Then play dumb and ask why you can't post a link to it!!
    If you all get banned...makes it harder to "save mini folks"...the good ones anyway...

    Ever since IB bought the site its been on a downhill slide... When they started letting Mynes post under the BiteTronik name (everyone from Mynes was banned years ago) that was enough to piss me off.
    They know who it is but wont do anything because the IP address the account is linked to cant be traced to Mynes... Its on a Greek server... Can we say George (DreamMaker Mynes's european hub for their products) created the account for all of them to use!

    I was going through my spam folder and found all the PM's from Drew leading up to my ban... Some are quite interesting... Bunch of PooBags! :p

    All very good Zip, but if you suggest they use the search engine you get yelled at for being intolerant (which is intolerant) or mean spirited. It all goes to the fact that children have not and will not develop the frontal cognitive skills they need until it's too late.

    I would invite anyone, possessing the patience of Job, to visit the link, offered below, to a thread on the sewing site wherein 'Fly'n Brick' (my evil twin's alter ego) tweaked the Emperor's nose.
    The final post where a comment was redacted, originally had a link to an article of the imprisonment of Earnest V. Starr in 1918 for sedition after refusing to 'kiss the flag'. Also considered for inclusion in that post was a link to a video of the 'Horst Wessel Lied'. Dave hits a bulls eye on this one.

    I dont think I wish to be a member of NAM any longer. - Page 2 - North American Motoring

    PS: I haven't been banned yet but it could be close.

    PPS: Wouldn't some of this almost qualify for Scott's Funny Saying...?

    It's all about numbers to IB/Drew, and they don't even know how to correctly interpret them.

    People who are passionate about cars are going to kick, scratch and claw about the littlest of things, it's part of the game. They don't want cutting edge and passion over there, they want to be white bread like Edmund's, and they've succeded. I can't believe anyone over there would allow themselves to be an unpaid tool of IB, but a tool is a tool...

    I cant just do it that way... I prefer to go out in a blaze of glory.

    Sooner or later somebody will start an argument, and I will get snuffed out... Only one problem, nobody has ever put up enough of a fight to get the best of me!

    To be honest, Jan, Dave, Miata Mark, and CCT, have been the closest, and now we are all friends! Even Co0p3r in his first posts on NAM put up a good try, and we are friends.

    It seems the biggest arguments over there come from Sprintex, and Bytetronik threads, it will probably be one of those where I finally get the boot.

    That thread has been dormant since that guy over the summer (who knew absolutely nothing about MINIs) thought he knew how to make them work. Before that the last activity was the guy who tried to throw me out of my own thread while I was driving the Jeep down to the Dragon... I went to Clarksville speedway that night after I challenged him in a post, he never showed, and hasn't been on the boards since, that I have seen!

    Two things... The post I added on to rum4 isn't there, not is his when I re looked at it. And two, are we the "forbidden site" they refer to over there?
