Just wanted to know where do the more serious P-T guys hang out with not just opinions, but, perhaps, race car builders etc, people with a wealth of knowledge and understanding of components as to what works and cant work. Not slamming either site nor wondered for that sort of purpose or to start anything in regards to anything. Was more or less for me, where do I find guys that win races, build race cars, know how to design chassis etc, which forum is more of that to be found on, or is that a void question as those people would be too busy to be on either forum

Why don't you come to your own conclusions.

This should have been the first question then. That wasn't what you asked so your question wasn't answered.

Oh -- Why didn't you just say so! In that case -- just ask Todd <aka: Vegas69>

George -- In all seriousness.... you'll find that on BOTH forums...


And which one you hang out on "more" depends on how your personality fits with the other guys.


Some guys on here just 'click' -- and there's real friendships that have formed... and as I've said many a time - it's more like a bunch of your buddies have come over to the garage and you're just hanging out. But there are some serious fabricators and builders here and they're posting and willing to share info etc.

Like Todd just said -- hang out -- read -- interact -- and you'll figure out which site works for you.

G-man George - wake up man. Somewhere I know you've got some brains. You just don't seem to use them before you post IMO. This is not a race only forum. Corner carvers is. I'm sure somewhere there's F1 and NASCAR forums, but guys building what you are asking for in the post above (i.e. tube frame chassis, no interior) do not dominate the list in the projects section. This is not to say we do not appreciate performance and race builds.

Your threads on PT were hilarious.

"What if I throw 200k at my Charger, will it beat a supercar?"
"I'm buying a 355 to race it"
"Scratch that, I'm gettin a Ford GT"
"Ok, final answer I want a Mutt-stang"

What’s next?

It was a fair and reasonable question I think. It came from a non-confrontational place.

Another one to check out that is a little hardcore for track and race cars is corner-carvers.

Yes it did come from a non confrontational place Dave.

That link was a list of all thread started on by G-Man on PT. Try this:
