Oh, and for the record for everyone else, the **** talking is done, as far as I'm concerned. I think Sean and I reconciled, and I want to apologize to everyone for having to put up with my hot headedness on here.

I want to set the record straight... Zach is a helluva tuner for the LSJ's. HE may have done Joe's car before much was released, or he knew much about the LNF, but thats not my call, and I am done caring. I think Zach's a good guy, and I don't want anyone to get me wrong on that. I just hope his business practice changes, and I am going to leave it at that.
awwww..... your so sweet!!!!!! and yes i will be at werks on may1st

What is wrong with my business practice? Thanks for saying I am a helluva tuner on the lsj's, but I know what I am doing on the lnf's now adays too. I have a lot to learn as does everyone, but I can put down some decent numbers on both platforms. I do know lsj's a lot better then lnf's as I have tuned a lot more of them and have had more dyno time with them and my own car is a lsj. Just because someone who got tuned a year ago doesn't dyno 800whp doesn't mean I am a bad tuner. It means I used the tools and knowledge that I was given and had to make a client happy. If the client was happy there were ways to remedy it but it never happened. I don't think joe wants to resolve this issue because he hasn't called me since the meet, after I left him a message so I dropped it.

I have a great reputation on both lsj's and lnf's. Just because Joe was my first lnf tune doesn't mean I haven't learned since then. We all learn new things all the timing in the tuning realm. Mkriebs I'm sure you are a good tuner also and have vast experience in tuning many lsj's and lnf's so lets just drop all of this tuning crap guys.

All of my clients, joe aside, know what I can do. I have had an lnf on the dyno here that has put down much higher then 270whp, just because joe was the first doesn't mean he was the last. But I will admit I do know the lsj's much better.

If we really want to make bets and brag and all that I will give you this. My lsj vs your lnf, whoever dyno's higher wins, whoever has the fastest track time outta 3 runs wins. Let me know if you are up to the challenge, money will need to be placed This goes for ANYONE that doubts my abilities and wants to challenge me.

You know Zach, thanks for the post. I am glad you chimed in. I will PM you with some things, to keep it outta here (nothing horrible). I know we all learn, which is the name of the game. Guess I was quick to trip the trigger on it, and thats my bad.

As for the race and dyno, money aside, I'm game, just for ***** and giggles. And, I'll put a car on the dyno that I will be tuning That one can be for money.

yeah idk where to meet in the southern parts...the people that live down there dont have any ideas either. i was in downtown naperville last night and theres plenty of parking IF we do this like say wednsday or thursday . it was dead last night. the only legit places i seen were giordanos and lou malnaties but im sure i would have to make an advanced registration for 30-35 people. idk.

also everyone that hasent voted on a meet date yet please do. voting ends sunday so if you dont vote you cant complain about the day. but yeah yz next month is going to be back at furlongs. just trying to make meets work for everyone so everyones not just driving up north all the time.

for those of you that have to come south we should all cruise... meet up at 355 and north ave or something and cruise.

I don't know if it's far enough south for you guys but Dave and buster's in addison wouldn't be bad we could use one of there side private rooms and if we met on a wednesday or thursday it wouldn't be to busy.

I like the pic in your sig Sean especially that blue cobalt it kinda make that black one look bad though. LOL
