Just more evidence that the Buick community is going down the shitter rapidly.
......sounds serious, too.
-
Popcorn anyone?

I don't get it.
Why would someone from FL have a guy in AZ do all the work on the car?

I don't get it.

Because he's got a reputation for being THAT good. Robert's from Boloxi and he just got his engine back from them.

You would think a good engine shop could build these motors. I preferr to have a local shop work on my motor. A mustang guy will build my next motor.
But there is no need to send your car that far to swap a turbo and trans. Unless you have sick $$ and don't know shit about cars.
-
Wow ! Thats nuts.
-
I never realized that there were concerns with Mike by the folks at tbs (in regards to the replies).
-
Everything seems fine with my engine.
Aint got it in yet.
I can tell you one thing, AFTER I researched the engine builders I was told about several posts that were deleted to cover Nicks ass. I'm a (very little) worried. But time will tell.

I'd rather send the car off to someone else that has had experience with these cars before I let someone that may not be familiar with the idiosyncrasies of a Turbo Regal touch it.
I have had just about everything done to my car by someone else, I have turned very little wrenches on my own car. I just don't have the time (even when I'm in the same zip code as the car itself).
Don't get me wrong, I would love to work on my own car, but time and geography won't let me. In the interim I scour the internet for information, ideas, and tech articles to store away for future use.

Hey, dude, I am not dising you nor your opinion, I just believe that there is a dsefinite tie-in between the 2 boards, and all of the fighting and bs was jsut that bs.
Be glad when you are local again.
Hope you and your family are in good health and spirits.

Some guy named EightEscV6 says:
"Nick is at the BPG Nationals in Salem, Ohio. He has an excellent reputation, give him a chance before dragging him through the mud on the boards."
So, we should give him a chance to reply by Monday or so. If not, we'll see.
-
Going back to a question that I asked a long time ago, why would Bruce Toelle loan out his best master at arms (Nick Micale) to another board that was owned by a ex moderator of turbobuick.com . (Elvis)
I was just over at t6p and what question clicked in my head was why is Tb.kom still advertising over there?
-
Natty, you aint seen nothing yet. There trying to take over every GN outlet there is.
-
Oh hell no, they'll never get tbs or this place. What does that leave them? tb?

FWIW & IMHO:
"EightscV6" is Bill Anderson, one of the fastest or the fastest car out there, and is the person who sold the really nice 680 horse stage II to Elvis, and seems to be a major player on t6p.

FWIW & IMHO:
Brotherly & sisterly love, they swap ends. T6p advertises on tb.com & tb.com advertises on t6p. Maybe they will let tbs.com play in the sandbox also. Naw, i don't see that one coming. If Elvis ever got tired of owning/administering/running t6p, who do you think would be there to snatch it up. No mystery there. I like to see boards get along, I just can't help wondering what they are up to.

Getting back to the orig thread, what are they saying he did?
Steal all their parts and replace them with junk parts?? I find that hard to beleve.

Hey guys, I just registered today, there is ALOT of stuff that goes on here! I never imagined. Basically this post is to declare I AM NOT any kind of silent partner or anything else on T6P other than a moderator in the Stage 2 section, I was asked to handle that section by Jay C before he started the board and I have been left in that position by the new owner. I have never moved, edited or deleted ANY post of any kind. I responded to the thread about Nick as I am a small business owner as well and it looked as if he were being convicted before he even got to speak.I knew he was away and basically I wanted to ask everyone to give him a chance to make a public reply before continuing.
Thanks All,
Bill Anderson

Welcome, Bill!

Can we now call IHAV8.com "Home of the Worlds Fastest Grand National"?

Bill, you have a hella clean image amoung the TR community.
I thought that was a major stand up thing for you to stand by Nicks side. You dont see that much nowadays.
I cant see anyone being a silent partner. The site is a business. I doubt Travis is making much money let alone trying to share it with others.
-
FWIW & IMHO:
Welcome aboard, Bill.
I believe that Elvis does have a silent partner. His wife said so before the post was deleted. There is nothing wrong with having a partner, silent or otherwise.
-
"Home of the Worlds Fastest Grand National"?

"Home of the Worlds Fastest Grand National"?
C'mon Phil, catch up. As usual, you're a few pages behind. :readingxxx:
Welcome Bill. I'll even vouch for your being around T6P long
before the reign of Elvis. :atbeer:

Hey guys, I just registered today, there is ALOT of stuff that goes on here!
We don't hold back anything here, and we know damn well that S6 won't delete anything. Everyone gives us shit about the lack of tech, but we don't care. If you can't work on it by now, sell it.
Phil, how "Home of the Fastest and Slowest Grand Nationals"

The secret is out...welcome to the site Bill.

Can we now call IHAV8.com

Bill's car is like, fast or something.
I don't know shit about silent partners, but I do know that I ain't going back over there untill Reaper is fired. That's it. Good to have you, Bill.......lik e Gordy said: The secret's out.

Wow glad someone sent me the link, I almost missed the party.
Here I will answer the Internet drama one by one.
1) Wells the silent partner is my WIFE. Take it or leave it, unless you have a bank check proving otherwise, your stories are amusing. I smoked the thread and since told her to stay out of those types of threads.
2) BE4U I have no plans to take anything Buick related over, if anything maybe some Ford stuff as I get information from Ford months before it hits the Internet, nor will I ever be a big vendor(Never) Not Interested.... The Big Buck Buick money is gone and has been, I know of 4 vendors that are dropping off come Jan 2006. They are done.
3) We are not tied to, connected to, in any shape our form to TB.Com. I could care less what happens there, I talk Bruce maybe once a month but I had a different view on TB.Com and the moves. That is why I choose to leave, if not T6P I would have made another site. I got lucky to get a turn key thanks to DCEPTCN...
4) Banner we fly theres and they fly ours. FREE of charge.
5) Reaper was fired. I told Jay to do what he needed to do while I was gone and if reaper was a issue handle it. He handled it, I back it. I am a man of my word so bye,bye.

Elvis: Wasn't anything personal. I was just curious. I am not interested in digging through yours or anybody else's bank account, statements, checks, or anything else.
Anytime mentions the "silent partner" deal, everybody always wonders who it is. Just human nature. I was betting on good ole St Nick. At least you didn't give it to Raper. Hey, what other stories have I told that you find or found amusing?

Did I say YOU were trying to take it over? I did not mean that. No, I do not believe your a part of that group...Unless your still hooked up with tb.com. I totally feel that you have good intentions. Remember we talked and I told you that untill you prove me otherwise I trust you? I still trust you.

This also leads back to what we talked about and thats partially why I believe in you. I believe that your trying to shake the tb.com image and your ready to build your own path. KUDOS!!!
5) Reaper was fired. I told Jay to do what he needed to do while I was gone and if reaper was a issue handle it. He handled it, I back it. I am a man of my word so bye,bye.

Robert, I'm not interested in learning to get along with Dathan.
-
Go ahead Gary, Shoot! I wish you two would straighten this out, I'm soo tired of being torn between two people that I like. It's not easy for us.
I never thought Wells had a issue with me. I do not know him, never meet him, never spoke to him. So if he has drawn up a issue with me. It must be a on-line fabrication as the man does not know me. Some people will not like the moves I made at T6P.Com, sorry I cannot please everyone, but I do try. Spit it out and get your 10 minutes of fame over with it. I will answer anything you got......

I got ya Sylvan, I never met Dathan. I have to meet him to really form my own opinion so I can be satisfied that I make the right decision. Wouldnt it be funny if me and Dathan meet and end up being best buds? :rofl; Although highly doubtful...it is possible.
Travis, you never answered my question.
Gary, bring it! Travis is willing to talk!
-
Travis, you never answered my question
What question?
Again I do not know Gary at all, I was always helpful to him on tb.com and never did anything directly to him on T6P.Com. So again if he has a issue, it is his Internet fantasy :finga:
-
I can vouch for Gary being a very cool guy- stand up shit, he is.
-
FWIW & IMHO:
I have no issues with Elvis, (Travis). BE4U: What makes you think or made you thought that I have/had issues with Elvis. Travis was a very stand-up dude on TB.com when he was moderator. He was always helpful. How did my name get drawn in here on this? Was that you, BE4U? There will be more on this later.

Gary this is what Robert typed. I guess it is just more fabricated Internet drama :snakeman:

--------------------------------------------------------
First of all, I have no issues with Travis, nor do I know of any that he has with me.
I have nothing to straighten out with Elvis, and I don't know of anything that he has to straighten out with me. I am confident that if I did, or he did, we would discuss it on a telephone line, E-mail, or PM. I have open E-mail address on all of the forums/boards that I frequent. This is not to be construed or interpreted as to mean that I think highly or am in love with some of the changes that have taken place on t6p. However, I do admit that I am old and do not readily adapt to change very easily. The "Who moved my fckng cheese" theory, I guess. It is Travis's board to do with what he chooses. That does not mean that I have to like the changes, any more than Travis has to like or accept me as a board member. I wish him well in his endeavors, and I will say that the board has smoothed out somewhat since it's onset.
-------------------------------------------------------
Now for any friends or enemies that I have remaining:
I do not have any friends that would/should/could, or will bring my name into this, or anything like this, or try and bait me against someone else. So:
Friends: If I have any friends that feel that they are torn between anybody else and I for whatever reason, real or imaginary, Go with the other person.
Enemies: If I have any enemies that feel they are also torn between anybody else and I for whatever reason, real or imaginary, go with the other person.
-
Gary, I'm fully under the impression that you dont like Travis. I feel like your trying to make me choose sides. Go with "Elvis" and be a fool or avoid him and be ok.
I feel like I'm being a dick or an idiot becasue I'm giving Travis a deserved chance. And I feel that way because thats the way you make me feel. If there are issues I want to know why I'm not suppost to like Travis. Travis is here and now is the best time to iron this out while the other bullshit is going on. All the negativity will pass at once instead of being drawn out to "next issue".
I dont ride anyones bus, I drive my own. But I do care about what people say.

So you have nothing to say. <--thats a period, not a question mark

They are message boards, the community is to small to have all this drama. Hang out talk cars and get along guys. :supz:
-
Turbo Buicks are just a hobby for me that I enjoy. I guess a lot of people want or need to have drama in their lives. Some of the stuff on these boards make for good reading but most of the time it just gets old.
-
Gary, I'm fully I want to know why I'm not suppost to like Travis.
Sorry cheesecake, you need to form that opinion on your own. :jerkit;
I had my reasons but now I send him $$$. How the fuck did that happen!!
-
Archie is my man and best customer. I love his car and think he is cool dude. He participates on T6P.Com and I am thankful to him for that :supz:
I if anything have learned you need to take ALL these boards at face value. It is just the Internet, I got my ass fired a few times by thinking someone was not worth anything. Then I met them face to face and had a beer, boy it changed my thinking :sad;
If I have a issue, I tell members to call me. I have spoken to a few guys and it changes the tune a little. The members that will not call or sit and hide behind a key board and spew venom IMO are useless.
If you got balls and got a issue, call, pm, e-mail etc and deal with it. If not shut up and line up :supz:
-
The members that will not call or sit and hide behind a key board and spew venom IMO are useless.
You talking to me? :smt102
I called, left messege.

You went into voice mail, I am sitting with a pesky Ford Consultant. Your number did not come up, please pm me your number. I will call you at 6.00pm my time on the way home, I have a hour ride home from work, perfect time to speak :rock:
-
Sounds good. PM will be sent in a minute.
-
Why can't we all just get along? Seriously, I'm not trying to make a joke. I am spending a lot of time and money to hang out in Vegas for a bit and NOBODY'S gonna fuck that up for me. C'mon guys, it's all good.
-
It is all good me and Robert spoke. Now end the drama and meet me on T6P.Com :finga:

What's wrong with IHADAV8...T6P doesn't have a shoutbox...or games...or hot russian chicks with TRs looking for love :smt055 .

I will do both :snakeman:
Just make sure you come home for supper :yawinkle:
-
It's getting harder and harder to read any of the TR boards anymore with all the drama that's going on...accusatio ns are flying, multiple user names are popping up everywhere (insinuating that people are making user names to troll boards), people are chasing down their foes (for lack of a better word) on non-car related internet sites to garner more information (for whatever purposes, who knows). How often does this happen in the internet world of TRs? Is this a cycle or something?
-
Its all pretty entertaining if you ask me!! :rofl;
-
There has been drama on the boards for as long as I can remember.
We used to use a dif handle to fuck with people. It was all in good fun.

I think S6 needs to buy out gnttype and mix that board and this one together (it's all about the shout box...and the games...and the hot russian chicks with TRs looking for love).
BTW...where have our hot russian chicks with TRs been lately?
