Take the time to read what I am typing. Put whatever has been powering this situation aside for just a few minutes so that you can read this for what it is. Please.
I can’t, for the life of me, figure out how or why we have reached this point. I was gearing up for war last night, and something didn’t feel right. I couldn’t figure out what there was to gain. We used to go back and forth from time to time, and we had some fun doing it, but things have changed. I’m almost thirty years old. I look back on some of the battles in the past, and I sounded like an arrogant kid with something to prove. We all did. That is no longer the path for me. I refuse to wind up some fifty year old guy fighting it out on an internet message board for no reason.
If anyone here feels that I have wronged them, or thinks I handled something inappropriately in the past, I apologize. If there is something specific that anyone wants to take up with me, send a PM and I will be happy to make right on it. If we used to speak and you have my number, give me a call and we will squash this. In return, I am willing to make a fresh start with you. We have all done things that we are not proud of. I find myself holding onto shit that happened years ago. Life is too short for that. That is no longer the path for me. If you did something to me in the past, I am willing to let it go, and I am asking for the same in return. It’s done and over with.
I would love to show up and race against you guys. I know a couple of guys that would, but no one wants to step into the ring and get beat on week after week, post after post. There was a mutual respect that we had for one another. It made the racing fun. It made the ribbing fun. I enjoyed the camaraderie. Somehow, we have lost that respect, and it has brought everything to a screeching halt.
Chris proposed a race. I am willing to accept that race. I know that there are several guys on both sides that would like to go racing. There were so many things that I wanted to do with my car and that was cut short. I now have my car back, and I am looking forward to having fun with it. I will show respect and I want it in return. I will not engage in any smack and I don’t want to be the target of any. If you guys want to spend all day beating on each other, have at it, but please leave me out of it. If we truly want to show up and race, then let’s do just that. If we have to be at each other’s throats, then I want no part of it.
This is my attempt to leave the past in the past and bring this community back together. If this sounds like something that everyone can live with then I am willing to move forward right now.

If you have taken anything I have said or posted against you I am not sure why? I thought the Ring Ring was pretty funny myself and I am pretty sure that anyone that knows me understands I am a complete smartass! As far as racing you need to specify which Chris because I am pretty sure I am the slowest guy on the alley. I remember a ride with you to 180+ and back down as the lights of an S7 were getting very close very fast....
Anyway this is the Alley and I do like to start shit. I also don't cry when people start with me! Socal, and BigMike have come up with some good ones! I think Kelly and Ricky even understand I am just f**king with them. If not they are atleast nice to me in person so I assume so or they just haven't told me.

Everyone is busy budy! Try flying for drug cartells during the week and then anti drug spraying operations on the weekends! I feel like Don Arranow burning the candles at both ends! Oh yeah and not to mention the off shore body disposal.... 800,000 disappear in the US every year... Now you know where some of them go!

That's the longest version "I thought we are friends" that I have ever read.
Good grief, Gary, did you major in Mattress U? The Alley was created to provide a venue for viper owners to talk a little shit without some little fairy getting his borrowed driving-suit pinched in his butt crack. You are taking this ribbing way too seriously and you're not even 30 and neither is your inseam yet?
You created your own sandbox where you control what people are allowed to post and say and that's just fine but it's weaker than the Morgue. Please don't drag the Alley into a similar death of boredom. If you want to have a bake sale and trade Beanie Babies on Speed Alley I have no problem with that but leave this place alone.
As far as the race goes, you and I both know that will never happen. You'll be too busy engaging in silly negotiations regarding the manufacturer of the wheels or spark plugs I planned on using.

Seems as if some these days get their feathers ruffled over nothing...
...Not really a big deal to me as I am accessible via PM's and
E-mails and phone's as well...
Chris, Jerry and everybody else sucks...Especially Javo.
And who is this Krazy wannabe anyway? He made a lame call-out thread, but never said what or who would be racing what on his end. I clearly remember responding early on....with no repsonse other than the typical nut-swinging gang-bang that commences anytime I post.
More cheesy photoshops and haterade please...I'm parched.

Hey Kelly,
When do you want to go offshore fishing?
I will race your ass in the TT Viper (this is pinks and here are my demands)
1. I want a 10sec head start
2. You may not start your car till I have hit the 10 sec mark.
3. I get to put fuel in your car to verify you will NOT run out....
