Unfortunately – as much as you- Joseph IV do not deserve the time of day- for your information- we do race at the track all the time- we race different tracks up and down the East Coast, we are members of the NHRDA and we just recently started Beanfield racing- but I really don’t owe you any explanation as you are not a diesel enthusiast and wouldn’t follow our crowd anyway- our customers post Youtube videos all the time and we post information on upcoming diesel events on our Facebook Page-
Again with you manipulating this forum – you find my defensive tone puzzling? really…. You again have done nothing but questioned my character, because I don’t believe in getting on a public forum calling people names, and having some meaningless tit for tat battle over a sticker all day - I am actually working for a living getting my hands dirty, not sitting at a computer worrying about how to bring or put other people down.
And as far as whether or not I would condone this behavior on the highway- I don’t, but last time I checked I am not on this forum to answer to you or anyone well else- and I am not on trial? Again thank you for the concern for my business- I read what everyone had to say and will take care of your voiced concerns - DONE
Btw, I caught one of your earlier post:
“In the late 80's my uncle's bro-in-law had an Omni GLHS. We were visiting my uncle in Landsdale, PA and the in-law stopped by with the GLHS. I thought the car was cool so I got a ride. We ended up on stretch of road with traffic lights. A then new 5.7 IROC Camaro pulled next to us at a red light. Tom (GLHS driver) looked over and revved a little. The IROC owner chuckled and shook his head. Tom got the boost up and tore off when the light turned green. We smoked the IROC. The driver looked pissed when he caught up at the red light. We went one more time and won, the Camaro driver turning left at the Chevrolet dealership. From then on I learned what the right car with the right driver could do.”Cool to be in a car street racing in the late 80’s - Joseph IV, huh?- guess it made it OK because the car didn’t sport a big business decal???? Not so politically correct~
As you will see from the two pics- take it to the track.
DONE...
You're done. Good. Getting a ride in a GLHS in the 80's? I was in Elementary school at the time. I was the passenger and I don't condone the driver's actions. The difference? The street had two cars on it, and both passenger and driver were younger than many of the jerkoffs (not referring to all of your patrons) that frequent your shop and do the same thing (street racing) today. I've learned my lesson years ago. Have they?
Manipulating this forum? People I don't even know have come on here and stated that they've seen the same thing. That they were talking about Hollyrock stickered trucks acting up and happened upon this thread. That should concern you. I didn't create an imaginary issue concerning the trucks. It existed. We in the community saw this. Now it's out in the open and being discussed. Such is the Freedom we Americans enjoy, even in these times.
You're not on this forum to answer to anyone else. That's right. But you are a member of this community. You have a responsibility to this community. I have a responsibility to this community. We should be concerned for its well being. It's called being civic-minded. You are a member of the NHDRA? Good. Keep the drag racing there and encourage your clientele to do the same.
You aren't on trial. I wished you success. Did you NOT understand that? See things from the eyes of people who have no friggin' clue what "a Hollyrock" is. They see idiots street racing, doing power brake burnouts in traffic, and smoking out innocent motorcycle riders, soccer moms, jeep enthusiasts, and everyone in between. Common denominator of many of these turds driving like douchebags? A HOLLYROCK decal on the back glass. Does that make you happy or piss you off?
It's your life and your business. Once again, I wish you success and peace. I'm not above that. I can't hold you personally responsible since I don't know if it was you or your kid or such that I've personally seen acting like a jerk. Keep in mind that YOU may get held accountable one day should things go bad with a truck advertising your business. Won't matter that you merely provided a product and service. McDonald's coffee lawsuit come to mind? Let a Hollyrock Decal truck strike a car while traveling over 100 MPH on 235 and see how things go. A good lawyer will get the info from the PCM, talk to a tuner about what they are looking at, and a saddened mother will bring a lawsuit against YOU for setting the top speed limiter at 150 MPH or whatever you chose. Try your luck vs a jury listening to a sobbing mother, a defendent claiming he never told you to raise the speed limiter above the factory 98 MPH setting, and the picture of beautiful but dead child set before the court. Think about it. You may not be held responsible for other's actions now, but that day may unfortunately come.
You don't know me, I don't know you. I can search for who you are and undoubtedly find pictures of you and your family on Facebook. I haven't done that. I'm not the one who linked your info on here. I'm an enthusiast of nearly all forms of motorsports. I've been to PA for diesel dyno days. The shop I've attended changed names years ago but they still put on a good diesel day. I may have met you there and talked to you. We'll never know.
Once again, if the Hollyrock name is getting stones thrown at it you can thank douchebags acting like jerks in public. Nobody started a thread concerning Hollyrock Douchebags at MIR NHDRA day.
