[QUOTE="c_spargo"]I don't think you bothered to look at what I was saying...[/QUOTE]
Yes, I "bothered."

[QUOTE="c_spargo"]Balance Factor is a very common term in the motorcycle racing world. It's obviously NOT very applicable to the inline six world or a world where crankshafts are designed well to begin with and not taken 50% outside the range they were originally designed for.[/QUOTE]
Look up the definition of "context," then.

[QUOTE="c_spargo"]I'll see you at Daytona next month. Or not.[/QUOTE]
Not.

Oh Shit, here we go again. Someone played the retarded card. Neither one of you knew what the hell you were talking about when it comes to balancing an M30 at the beginning of the thread and now another thread is turning uglier by the minute for no good reason other than wounded pride and stubborn egos. I won't claim to be above any of this behavior, but it sure does get tiring to watch good learning opportunities for all the participants of the board become corrupted by this bullshit over and over. Can't us car geeks just get the fuck along?

OK my ranting spell is over, carry on then.

Sorry - didn't mean this to come across like that. I meant that to be a poke of fun at both of us, because we're both obviously too serious about this.

Don't sweat it too much, that was just the one that pushed me a little bit over the edge. I remembered another recent thread turned pointless shitstorm that became even more ludicrous when someone chucked that special olympics thing into the fire. I find it more and more annoying when threads get out of control with people not treating each other very well for no good reason at all. I know that it is silly to get riled up about this stuff, but sometimes a boys got to vent some steam. If writing out a little tirade on this here board helps with that it is a cheap form of therapy.
