Cossie,
You can shoot for me from now on.
I'm a personal friend of Frank Lin as well. Will you be at Thunderhill on the 24th?

Oh, and nice "you know Frank Lin?" link. Tired and outdated, but if character assasination and referencing Internet forum-**** makes your day go 'round, then that's a sad state of affairs.
Not only have I known Frank for years now, I also know he can outdrive 90% of the track "******" who feel the need to stroke their net-**** when they aren't at the track underutilizing their latest "purchase."

Why jump to conclusions about what we "assume" him to be? Was there a need to intro him to our thread?
And if people are there "underultilizing" their purchases. at least they proud owners of their own possessions.
What's it to you?
Yeah, I post lap times slower than a few of the track junkies...so what?
You fail to realise that most Norcal junkies have not only heard of frank, but we have all met him....
So, keep your opinion of him to yourself...we dont need a second one....

He got mine nicely lubed?
Nope, it's called knowing the guy for a long time now, knowing where he's coming from, and having watched his own evolution as well as my own. I didn't even need to jump to conclusions or make an assumption, based on the content of stockrx7's post.
If people there are underutilizing their purchases, they're spending a lot of money on expensive ****-toys.
Really, NorCal junkies eh.. Where were you 5 years ago?
I'll express my opinion if I'm hearing straight up bullshit - and ghettoracer this that and the other thing surely falls into that category.
I'll take orders from my boss, and that's about it, so the opinion stays.

Some people blow money on cars, some on gadgets, some on ****** and others...
When did time ever matter?
Ghettoracer is no bullshit, maybe you should look at your friend's website...it is what he calls himself, so we are not giving him a name that is not deserving...
Yeah, you can have your own opinion, and seeing how you have a boss, nuff said
I can understand..there are others who are their own boss, thus maybe thats why they have toys known to others as **** toys...
Just chill dude....even Frank doesnt get so pissed off when there is a flame war about him...He has one of the most positive attitudes ard, for he never take no for an answer...medicne to some, posion to others...
Dont forget, you started the Frank in this thread...
so what's the point if you know it's going to startbullshit?

Dirty bastard, you better be handing out rides (and co-drives in my dreams). I'm going to have to convince another stock 7 to get out on the track, because there won't be any way in hell I'll be able to catch you any more.
I'd be more than happy to drive the yellow one out there for you! 
Seriously though, if for some reason you want to bring both I would be happy to drive one, you know I'm too **** about mileage to drive my own...
You forget that 6 months of winter also means 6 months of winter storage insurance. My 7 costs me about an extra $600 a year ($135 for winter 6 mo, $450 for summer 6 mo) in addition to my daily driver.

So you have a track 7, a street 7, and since you live in MN you must have a winter car too? I don't even wanna think about what your insurance bills look like...

I'm a little surprised at how "disappointed" I was that you ended up buying it. I guess deep down I really want to keep it.
Maybe someday, I'll buy it back from you. If you ever sell it, I better get first dibs!!
