Wait, where did he say he has a 550?
I thought I read it somewhere last night but could be mistaken. No time right now to do any searching...

I think what's even better is that we just brought all the newbies up to speed on who this guy is. We've grown at least two-fold since he last appeared and half of these new members now know his history. So classic! Hahahaha! There was a brief history where this guy created such great drama. It was hard being away from this site, as you didn't know what he would say next, when he would get banned next and when he'd return under another handle.

The irony is, he actually has one of the more popular threads on this forum...the 25 second hold down, reset tranny thread. Yep folks, that's his thread and his contribution to E60.net. I hate to say it.

Two things always stood out in my mind though with him...
  • He claimed he had a supercharger
  • He didn't own a digital camera


BTW - I think I liked him better as, redwhiteblue

I, for one, really appreciate being brought up to speed on this potentially wonderful blood-bath!!

I wonder if he kept the floor mats installed on the 550?

Well, as we all know, the floormat deletion mod is easily capable of 100WHP gains. True story

This forum shouldn't be. But it is entertaining on the occasional basis.

+1... Like some others, I'm new to the forum as well and have read numerous threads about this guy banned. Total idiot to try a sneak back in the bull ring wearing a kool-aid man outfit. Excellent catch on the email..... that foolish mortal.

Quite entertaining.. really hurt my work productivity this morning lol.

My question is, did he do this a lot or do you think he has a hidden agenda against RPi?? Why not call them and get some questions answered directly via phone? Then he spent a lot of time typing up a massive post to complain.. And for reasons not regading an actual problem, just anticipating protential problems and satisfying his curiousity..

However, I didnt like vendor's response "The reason your exhaust is weird is because who ever owned it before you modified the exhaust." Seems rather unjustified and short towards a customer.. but it doesnt mean bad customer service, just one string of support wasnt too great.

I am a newbie so thank you EVERYONE for this extremely entertaining thread. I have been on this forum for about 3 days and its better then reading any gossip magazine out there!

+1 RPI!
