Stop picking on our Russian brothers.Slimeballs need love too.
Not on our board they don't :frog: I would rather let your sheep post:hug:
What exactly is a. "Troll Bot?"
These came from Russia. They are computer programs that can register to the board and make bogus posts. We try to kill them ASAP as they can actually infect the software with virus's. We lost our board fuzzydiceracing to bots
The cranks that I have had offset ground were built up first, then offset ground to give them the extra stroke so we still used the original journal size and factory bearings, Then some used regular and some used custom rods. If that's the case and they are doing this, is it still going to be weaker than stock? Still have the same amount of material on the crank just moved a little bit, so it could be re balanced and ready to go? I've never seen it done like you were describing, that just seems like kind of a silly way to do it to me, unless I'm picturing it wrong.
Yeah, love the cute messages and the WARNING!! YOU WILL GO TO PRISON OR THE GAS CHAMBER IF YOU READ THIS WEBSITE crap.
IIRC, CompetitionDiesel.com says:
Welcome back! We've missed you. Please take a minute and post something.
THE STAFF HAS BANNED YOU FOREVER. GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!
:rofl: I got that one there, defenatly another site that has double standards!
You can be back on in a few minutes...........
It's easy..........:rofl:

I'm not sure about weld up cranks. It is probably is important who does it. Welding puts a lot of heat into the material, and it can start cracks if not done right.
I don't know much about weld up cranks but I do know quite a bit about weld up parts on transmissions and they are never as strong and fail most of the time.
They are talking about using a new username and different IP address to get back on.

I went and looked...that is in fact NOT the message you got when you were banned.:hello:
If "double standards" means banning someone who repeatedly attacks a Moderator untill said Mod gets fed up and hits the button....then so be it.
I would have done the same thing. I have better things to do than fight with a member who doesn't wat to be there anyway.
This board is the same age as CompD. No moderator here has ever had to use banning as a form of moderation. There are boards with over 30k members who don't ban members either.
Just a different mindset. A website is it's content and members. Content is derived from the members. So banning members is like shooting one of your cows when it kicks you while you're milking.
You folk just need to milk it better.
PS - It's not that hard to change the board so banned members don't get a "Welcome Back! We miss you!" message. But I think you should leave it there.
Most your members don't have 14 posts.
We're just a bunch of unedumacated hillbilly's...we can barely find the keys to type anyway. 14 sounds about right....most of our guys are too busy winning races to worry about posting.
We have no plans to change it at this time.
Most banned members find their way back through other usernames anyway.....right Pat ?
Heck, why would I post there, I don't even know anything about 12v's?
And I'm not selling anything they can use. That's the only reason you let Hogue stay, right? As soon as he stops carrying 12v parts, he's a goner.

The average ET here is lower than any other diesel board. Heck, I hear the world's fastest production diesel pickup even hangs here.
Even though you raise our average ET, you are welcome here... :hug:
I was told that you have a thread there that says 10lb/min from a turbo is good for 10HP.
Could you step in there and post that it's about 1lb/minute for 8 HP?
