Far from it - Its just another way to show the same data

Just updated the forum to re-add the Timeslips hack
It was broken along with the arcade during recent upgrade
It allows for cool struff like sorting by 12 sec club, by et , by MPH etc etc
Also allows / requires timeslip picture for some types of times -
You MUST post proof of any time posted better that 11.99

Crawford As of now there are MANY more people in your list - thanks for all your help in monitoring and maintaining it - Perhaps there is a way we can gove you access to monitor - maintain the new way as well... If you are interested

Hey doug, my scanner is broken at the present, however I could take a fairly good digital camera pic of my slip, is that good enough?

Sounds good to me. I am actually thinking about updating the new list with all the times in my threads then locking them so everyone is forced to use the new list. Its just confusing to have two. Hmmm... http://www.talonclub.com/forum/images/smilies/confused.gif

You job is not going away -- The times are actually part of the persons online forum profile - the only way to update it is for them to add themselves or for me to give you god rights to do it for them ... well have to discuss this over a beer

LOL.........this is getting funny. Truth of the matter is, it really is not mine or Scotts place to sa who can post what on the time list. Personally, I couldn't give a rats ass if someones great grandma Betty wants to post her times from BFE.

It does seem to me that you would want to post your own times under your name and not someone elses. Waynes times are Waynes times... Knowing what I do about drag racing, I can tell you that just because he ran those times in that truck...it really does not mean you will. Then again, you could better them...who knows.


As for what slips have to be shown, I think Doug(mod god) has already set that number at 11.5x or there abouts.

I think Scott was trying to figure out a way to move up the list without actually having to race:rll: :rll: :rll: .

I will, I was just adding to the silliness on here. :rll: I'm making a list and checking it twice to make sure I can get the parts in past mama. I want to make sure once I build the thing I wont have sell it or part it out. I already built one, the S4, but I had her buy in on that. Can't seem to talk her into letting me go wild on this one. Maybe I can sneak next years bonus and dump it into the truck :evil

When I first bought my Lightning, I went to Florida for some serious modding. I ask the fellows that where doing the work how fast we could make my Lightning. They responded with, " How Big Is Your Wallet?". Back then I thought it was a cute joke. Now I realize it wasn't a joke at all.

I actually have that 11.35 slip in a frame with a picture of the 02BOLT. I do not have a digital camera, but will see if I can get Steve-O or Jeffrey to snap a shot of it and get the link hooked up here within the next week or so.

Sayle even videoed that pass and e-mailed it to me, but I was too computer ignorant at the time to save the damn thing.

At any rate that time may very well fall on Saturday. It'll be fun to watch!:tu:

I'm with you Scott on this one. I was hoping that when I hooked up with TALON that the "Supporting Members " would have gotten more priveys than non SM's and that this would be strictly Lightnings not Chebbies & Doggies also. Dakota in 9th? :confused: Grant it ,unless my mind changes and I start making my truck non-stock ,it won't make the list. I do attend as many events I can that's on Sundays. Scott the only way you ever going to get the heat off you is to stop talking smack and posting and make events (s) plural-as in more than 1. And back up what you say.(IMO) Then if the heat continues its envy. But hey man thats one of your best posts. :cool:

I probably am a bit hard on Scott, maybe it's because I am trying to irritate him into making more of the events....;) .

I will admit that I agree with the part about the vehicle having to be a lightning. I also wouldn't have a problem with it being supporting members only...it's only 10 bucks a year...pay to play, so to speak.

I just don't think we should exclude folks because of where they live...which maybe he didn't really mean it that way. OK...so if you where trying to say what Derick just said.............I'll quit picking on you:tongue: .

ya i could care less where you live... but I dont think some guy with a Dakota should be there period! and I dont think some dude with a Lightning thats never even been to the site before except to post his times should either.... i guess im the minority here.... but I just kinda invisioned it as a list of talon members timeslip, not just a large lightning timeslip....

as far as the picking goes, i dont take any of it seriously anyway.... its all in fun.... im gonna try and start making more events... its hard for me to make the meetings because I dont close the store until 6:30 and they are mostly up in Dallas somewhere and I couldnt make it on time.... but I am one of the 64 Ls in the group pic and Ill be there Saturday for races.... knana

Interesting Discussion - Missed most of it till just now.

I agree with some of the folks here - We dont want any yahoo registering and putting his civic time up ... I have hacked the timeslip hack yet some more to add permissions - Only Supporting members should have the ability to add timeslip data now- I also made it a requirement that the RIDE section and the Track location be filled in. The hack may not be 100% yet but Ill keep an eye on it -

The idea is to post the times of TALON members and thier lightnings - Where you live isnt important - Dana for example was and IS a member - he currently lives in PA but is welcome to participate because he OWNS a LIGHTNING and he was an active participant while he was here.

I added the word lightning for some of the lazy folks - Garrett.. Cough

I am going to remove the RT info - Sorry ...

Rocks,
you still the man. We have been seeing eye to eye on all of the "unconfrontable issues" since last year.I think our point of view may sound bad to some,but I believe our heart and mind is in the right place. As for Scott I wasn't just speaking of you ,I was just speaking in general.Even I wanted to give him a hard time about the posting and not showing up .Others give him a hard time also.Its in fun tho. But Scott has to do his part to hush it up.And believe me Scott I understand about being the boss and not able to make some of the events at certain times. I can't make Thusday unless I'm on leave. But can't keep me away from other events.(Lfest,FFW,toyrun,Tarrant County posse events...) hint,hint.Plus it keeps wifey from yapping about it if I do the major things and not sweat the small stuff. :tu:

If one of our members were to buy a HD f150, could his times be posted with the L's? After all, it is basically a L motor in it. I just wonder why I haven't heard of any really fast HD's yet. Do people not likr them or what? I think they are kick ass!
