perhaps it is a good thing ...
Basing an argument on past statements seems like someone is just looking for an argument ...
opinions change & nothing is cast in stone, remember never say never ...
Point of Interest : I used to hate Jeff Gordon but now he is one of my favorite drivers ...
Did I lie in the past ? NO, I did NOT !!! My opinion of Jeff Gordon changed.
It should be understood that a person has the right to change their mind or their opinion.2008 ESPN Stockcar Challenge MSF Champion :D

So long old friend - RIP Motorsport Archive, I hardly knew ye
Well it is disappointing that we can't get those threads again, as I was meaning to revive Brammer's thread of "Famous one-liners". Nevertheless, we shall prevail, we will overcome, our climb will be steep.... ah hell, you guys get the message.

Back a million years ago, I used to be quite clever, and occasionally I get all nostalgic for those times, and want to read some of the things I wrote.
I don't think that I am very clever any more...
I think that I just sort of ran out of steam, or maybe thought that my opinions were no longer worth the trouble to post. I also just ran out of patience with the postings of idiots who stick to dogma in spite of overwhelming evidence, and endless arguments about "My favoured driver is better than yours so nerr!".
Anyway, the other day, I was looking at a discussion of torque and horsepower on another discussion forum, and remembered that I once wrote something I wanted to pick up and couldn't find.
Sometimes I wish that I could be inspired to post again.Adventure without risk is Disneyland.

I remember it being extremly helpful, I had a better understanding on the difference between HP and Torque (regardless of the unit of measurement); its a shame I can't go back and look at it now.....#4 2014 Sprint Cup Champion, 2007 Daytona 500,2003 Brickyard 400,2x Coke 600,2014 Southern 500 Champ: 962 starts,90 wins, 345 T5s, 544 T10s, 44 poles, 2x NNS champ

Believe it or not, I additionally enjoy coming here to improve on my level of usage of the King's English, which of course is another reason why I like exchanging with the Brits besides their sense of humor. This place has me using "perhaps" and "proper" in my vocabulary now.
In short, that's really why I dig it (the forum) anymore. Other that what is being discussed politically.
I do agree with you about not being motiviated to post at times, much less spend a lot of time on here; as like with anything else, sometimes I have to give it a break for a while.
*Note to Moderators: just so I don't get myself into trouble, my remark of 'white trash' was in reference to me and only me, not to other Americans or other caucasians in general.FIDO - Forget It, Drive On
