    How's that, Liarboy?
    Oh, one detail I missed from the ad on ApexSpeed that led to this:

    'In Regards to the Ford vs. Honda Debate:

    With my experience at FRP, the Ford engine competes well with
    no-expense spared Hondas. I have had no problem getting the job
    done with a ford and actually prefer to use it on some tracks. I
    have a top-notch Honda, so I think I'm qualified to make this
    statement.'

    Game, set, and match, Liarboy.


    Now try to show a modicum of class for once.

    Alan you are trying so hard and failing so miserably. How many
    drivers at SCCBC have the resources to maintain a Kent to the level
    of this Johnathan Lee? How much time and money have you spent on your
    engine compared to everyone else in SCCBC in Formula F? Why are
    almost all the top teams running the Honda?

    He literally told you that the Kent is competitive on track with the
    Honda, asshole.


    As you stated earlier the reason the Honda is so successful is that
    it makes for a more competitive car all things considered. You
    admitted what I have been saying for so long. Game, set, match.

    Even the high-end teams have budgetary limits and...

    ...far, FAR, more importantly...

    ...limits on their available TIME.

    There are nearly always things you'd could be doing to go faster, if
    only you had more time to do them...

    ...more time for testing...

    ...more time for setup changes...

    All things I told you, Asshole.


    And this argument was never about which engine was the best choice
    overall, Asshole. It was about your contention that my speed was down to
    my having a Honda.
