To clear up any BS surrounding nominations of the car and driver to represent our forum at The Forum Wars TV Shoot in Texas, I decided to post a poll.

Please indicate your vote above. For more information check out the following thread https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...t-texas-9.html

AMGC60-3

I voted for either, It just looks like they are setting up Tatorr for a fail. Maybe we should just have a no show and let the BMW guys play with themselves......

I voted for Dodger63. No disrespect to Hagi but Dodgers car is more track prepared with more lighter parts and suspension work. You are going to need suspension options to compete on the slalom and road course. Mike can drive as well but just isn't as light as Hagi. Mike, you can use "S" mode on the track in any circumstances. I run in "S" mode road racing all the time.

Mthis and were going as a team! I thought mthis's car cause of the less mods.. But to me idc.. Who shows up! I would just like to see someone that would take it serious. I no its not so serious but imagine the banter from all the M guys if we don't whoop there butts in the straight line stuff. This to me was a commitment type of excersice were the participant would spend some time and money to get there car readyfor this event, I'm no rich guy, but this event would involve some investment. I was prepaired to throw an LSD new tires and any other necessary items I needed.. And also if it was mthis that was going we would've towed his car on my truck and switched out any parts we could've to make it better..

With that being said; I think we are wasting time now! This forum war is loaded they for some reason want it lop sided. If you take someone with no track esperience and throw him next to someone with allot of experience it's a failure to begin with.. Theres 100 techniques and tricks with these cars. The m3 has launch control on street tires that's going to help..

This is a loose loose situation from the beginning. Its extremely annoying to me that trattor hasnt started a thread. (ok guys now what). Asking advise and help on what he should do to be prepared. This is not an attack on him! Just racing are biggest rival on tv is important.

Ok talking to much and prob not making sense

Good call. A poll will document the forum members wishes. If the race goes on without MBworld input then so be it.... it will NOT be a true representation of our participation.
Let it be documented as such.

Then it's just another you-tube race. No skin off my nose.

mthis

Mike I'm down for what ever brada!
I voted for u just bc u car is beter built like dad said,
It shouldn't matter if your car Is more modded then the m3 shyyt they were going to send a tune only to race against a ess sc m3!


Personally I thing now it's to late and pointless to try and fix this It's obvious that forum wars don't wanna see a good show.

I told u mike how this could be fix. If we show up and no one else does they have no choice.

dodger63

That's a long ride to take! Just by chance of them using us. I say it's better that people just email them or the link to this poll

betrezra

You know what would be interesting......

if dodger or Mthis or both show up at the same track of this event the day after and document their times.

Then post up what a sham this whole deal was. I'm sure forum wars wouldn't want such a bad reputation. This would put a hole in their rep.

Racers know if something is legit or bogus. Let's keep this legit.

The poll results show a pretty clear MBforum preference.

BAN TRATTOR NOW!!!!

And according to FW's own rules, the person is nominated and approved by the forum.
This is not happening and frankly the whole race will be a shame and a lie.
If FW goes ahead with a rigged race from the get go and don't follow their own rules, they not only lose all creditability, but I believe they can be SUED by both this forum and C63s owners for defamation and dilution of the AMG brand, etc. by promoting lies, lies, lies

BAN TRAITOR NOW and SUE FORUM WARS NEXT

I love to stir the pot
Happy New Year to my AMG comrades!!
FU ForumWars and M fanboyz

In all seriousness, I'm sure the M guys would want this to be a little fair too. It proves nothing if it's one-sided to begin with. If they win as it is now, oh well, BFD.

Maybe if we could get them to complain or at least put in a word for our cause we could get somewhere, although we are cutting it pretty close at this point..

Childish///AMG

Let the "Fun" begin

This should also be of interest to AMG Marketing. I used to know Rob Allan from AMG Marketing in Monvale NJ but he is gone now. Is Eric Linder the new AMG Product Manager (Eric Linder (201) 573-2462, eric.linder@mbusa.com)?

snail45

I'm sure the M peeps do want to have the edge. In all reality, the only people who will see this thread are us and some of them. The general public will watch FW and think the c63 is a turd and give it no more thought. Then the fanboys on you tube will say " oh yeah, it was proven on forum wars that the m3 is better". I do think it was a great idea to get this poll on the charts before rather than after the event though.

betrezra

As bogus as a honda civic flyby in traffic!

RStevens63

It may be too early to call but at this point it seems fair to tell forumwars they do not have a MBW representative. Do they have a message board we can post this on?

betrezra

Uh... we do have one, they just don't want "our" choice.

jvanbrecht

I picked no one.. honestly, I think forum wars is stupid...

GHAZAN

same but my next vote was for mthis...i think it'd be better to beat them in a 'less' modified car so they have 'less' to b1tch about plus sounds like hes a good driver wchich is everything; no offense to the rest

dodger63

Hey.. Are you kidding... I'm the best!! No I'm jk that's what I said long ago....

Sincity

I voted either but I feel bad for him to be stuck in the middle of this. Notice how quiet he has been? But, given the vote and the current consensus of the forum, he should gracefully bow out.

Has anyone sent him a PM (nicely) with that request?

black-clk500

I find it very hard to believe he has no idea what's going here, especially considering he's our "ambassedor" for this forum.
I really think something fishy is going on between him and FW!

BAN HIM, BAN HIM, BAN HIM (join in) BAN HIM, BAN HIM

betrezra

Can we ask MBworld to make this a sticky?

And forward the results of this to forum wars to politely ask the don't misrepresent us in any way.

dodger63

I need a few days notice to be ready if you want me to represent., if it mthis that's easier his car is set to go.. Lock and load on the trailer and we can leave Thursday

Never even seen the user name "Tatorr" before.

Forum wars is a joke. Have you seen the M5 vs M3 episode? The M5 owner didn't know enough to not run 20" wheels or turn his TC off for the 1/4 mile run. Seriously, where do they dig these guys up??? That is why they don't want Haji or Mike there. They want someone with no experience to show up ill prepared for any format of racing and get spanked my an M3.
