Thanks

I spend the vast majority of my time on the forum in this section. Over the last year or so I've noticed what seems to be a core group that have been particularly helpful. Either they post a thread dealing with a particular issue, a helpful modification, or they're quick with links, pictures or detailed answers on one problem or another. You know the guys...they pretty much end the thread once they post because there's nothing much more to say.
Don't know any of these guys personally and probably never will. But with the Christmas season on us and remembering that we don't pay for the help...I thought it was a good time for a little recognition. I'm sure I missed someone, so anyone feel free to add as you see fit. In no particular order........

I'd add mr rx-7 tt to this list. While not as active as he once was....this guy is one of the original hardcore rotary experts. And no list would be complete without DaleClark. adam C is right in there, too.
Others I am sure will come to mind....

Thanks. I always try to give people advice on here and when they call the shop, whether they are customers or not.

I'm grateful too. Thanks guys, if it weren't for people like you and the information that is shared, I don't think I would own and maintain an FD. Hope to see more informative stuff from all of you, now my expectations are sky high

I want to add cewrx7r1 (Chuck Westbrook) to the list. He has shared his Power FC expertise with a lot of people, including me... I'm very grateful for that.

They are not so active any more, but have provided lots of good help to a lot of people.
