:spew:

^lol

it was stated, in a thread i already deleted, that these knuckles were "the most proven" which they are not.

that's my only problem here.

as for your results, in xdc and nopi, have no relativity to this discussion since they were not acquired with an FC.

also, no my knuckles have not won a FD championship, but they have gotten to the FD podium, which would be the highest result to date for an FC in the united states.

we can have this pissing match all day long, but like i mentioned the only problem i have is with false claims...

:bigeyes: i think he won^

yes its mikes captain america themed LSx 13. the 3 bolt struts, and power brace gave that away well before you even thought i had considered it not to be an FC homie.

i posted that photo because you can see how fucked the ackerman level is. the only thing "proven" in this thread is that he "proved" his knuckles are garbage.
mine were eye balled and they came out better than that. JUSSSSSS SAYIIIINNNN <33

Whens Hotline coming out with the "v2" knuckles?

Hopefully Hotline becomes a sponsor before trying to sell them on this forum :)

I believe Mike HIMSELF modified his first set of S13 knuckles. Probably eye balled as well. But MINE for my FC were NOT "eye balled" by Derrick Rodgers. So they ARE better than yours. JUSSSSS SAYIIINNNN HOMIE...

you are so hot right now baby.

kiss kiss

Just so I can fully appreciate the flawed logic going on here, let me lower my IQ and bring my reading and logic skills to a sub 2nd grade level for a second, and make sure I got this.

Here we go.

Thank you for re-establishing that 5 years ago, on my one-off knuckles, for an S-chassis, that I chose the trade off of ackerman to achieve a lot of angle on my personal car, long before anyone else making knuckles, and because I used to be a fan of keep-it-simple, and didn't feel like lengthening the control arm or relocating anything...and would have been extremely limited due to the tension rod location without adding a bunch of ackerman, to achieve the angle, on a drift car, where the inside front tire does nothi....I mean, the inside front tire does the absolute most work, so the ackerman causes an incredible amount of problems, especially when combined with incredibly soft suspension I was running at the time, and that unloaded inside front tire does SO MUCH to effect the car in motion....

With that already-established fact, these FC knuckles owned by Rotaspinna, designed and engineered 100% by Derrick Rogers, ABSOLUTELY MUST also have the same traits as these 5 year old S-chassis knuckles that were the 1st of their kind in the states AFAIK, that I literally spent almost a whole afternoon after lunch making.

The fact that Derrick has made over 50 sets of daily driven, Championship winning knuckles is absolutely and completely irrelevant, and that I had nothing to do with these knuckles, just like Derrick has nothing to do with the knuckles on my car, these MUST be the exact same as my 5 year old knuckles on an S-chassis that should have clearly been less extreme, losing 10* of angle to win Solo2 nationals with proper ackerman to plant every MM of contact patch on his 315 Hoosier's up front, on my drift car.

Now that we're back from La-La land, I think I'll just say that my knuckles I made eon's ago, have absolutely nothing to do with Derrick's knuckles, and is about as relative as comparing a Nissan Versa to a GT-R, because the people who made them might have had lunch together once.

Ironically as much as my old car totally sucked, its funny how I show up with a LS1 and cut knuckles, and go home with a blown engine/some oddball problem every time. And look what everyone else has years later. Hmm. Way back then, If I wanted 45* of angle, I would have used steering spacers. I wanted over 60* and got it and some by cutting the knuckles, now everyone does it. Mission accomplished.

Troll away. I'm going to be busy killing zombies on black ops or drifting on forza, and crying deeply over the revolutionary discovery that my drift car's inside rudder has bad ackerman. so I'll catch y'all later, please pray that I make it through this traumatic time in my life. Maybe I will meet a giant fish. Our customer is happy, internet is mad as usual, and I've got someone who is married, owns a pretty legitimate business, and is in an FD championship title fight investing the time to troll on one of Derrick's products in our customers thread before the last round of the title fight. Honestly its kinda flattering.

Now that we have established that these knuckles, that I am NOT trying to sell but only represent the shop who made them, actually have a legit amount of time spent on them...

...let us not post anything else until I have more to add to MY build thread :)

Thanks and good luck to everyone else with a build thread as well!

AND good luck to JTP this next round!

Wow.

well that was fun...

just goes to show how salty mike peters is for having an LS1 and getting shit on all the time for having it 5yrs before that swap took off...
