Funny part is, they play both sides of the street on that issue too. When one of their buddies on there posts something that other people would be flamed for, all of a sudden it is ok. Just like when they were flaming Jesse James, and then he showed up and posted........then all of them started acting like star struck kids. Plus, it is real easy to be brave sitting at a computer keyboard where you know you will never have to face the guy you are putting down.
This battle between car hobbyists has been going on lots longer than you or I have been around. In the really old days the 4 cylinder guys hated the new V8 cars, then the flathead guys hated the OHV engines coming out.........they weren't "traditional." Who the h*** REALLY knows what traditional is?? I sure don't.
Bottom line is your car is your car, and if it makes you happy it doesn't make a rat's behind, and other people have no say in it whatsoever. Besides, most of those "bangers" don't even have a car in all probability, at least not one that is running like yours. :D :D
