A thread for Tom Renzo and his amazing work.

I never had a problem with Tom, and would be interested in seeing some of his work. What I have seen, even in cars I have no interest in, impressed me. He has always chimed in when I've had an issue to try to help. Sometimes it did help, sometimes not, but he tries. So, I as i stated, would be interested in seeing his work.

As far as coming off as a "know it all"....maybe. Maybe not. It's really hard to judge a person's real character over the internet. Some people seem one way in print, then really great in person. So, I have no issues with Tom at all.

If my dad made this thread about Shane it would have been locked instantly but because Shane is a big shot with 3000 posts it stays. Let's see some of your fine work Or dyno numbers Shane, I need a good laugh. Hate me and my dad for our GM rides or the cars we work on, but don't call us liars. Unlike some people on this sight we like any brand or type of car not just fords and that bends a lot of you out of shape. Hate our cars and work all you want but untill you build something faster you will never get any respect from us.  It's easy to be a tough guy behind a keyboard Shane

Man, why does it always have to get ugly? No need for it here, no reason for it here. I'm talking to anyone who is reading this. Like anything, take what you like, leave the rest. Nobody here should be attacking anyone for any reason here. f you have something personal to say, take it to private messaging. It's not a soap opera around here.......well, I say that. C'mon people,... you're all pretty. Now lets move on and get off the  wagon.

I only had a problem with Tom, was how he quoted other post. That seems fixed. Tom gives good info, with pics whoever ask. He seems pen 15y with his answers,I'm similar to that also. It's pretty petty to have a post about it.

Oh Shane your quite the character. Well some of you know I'm toms son Tom. You can think my dad bullshiznits and that's fine, but we have no reason to lie. Search some of my threads on ls1tech of my builds, you can CLEARLY see Porsches, ferraris, camaros, corvettes, cobras ect in the back round

Shane just because you built a slow piece of junk and uou know So much about building cars you bought a crate motor doesn't mean we need to lie, sorry to burst your bubble pal. Me and my dad must really know nothing, We're do stupid they people hand their million dollar cars over to us time and time again. We don't and will never post where or what are shop is, we don't need losers like you coming and peering in our windows. Get a life, get a clue, and pray your slow pos never sees one of our cars on the street. Now excuse me I have to go finish painting this new v10 Audi R8 and my dads quite busy mocking up the supercharged ls3 in a customers 68 Camaro were building.

Fwiw I have thousands of pics of cars we have done for anybody that wants to talk trash

You know...after reading the verbal diarrhea you just posted, it just proves once again money and talent doesn't always equate coolness.

That being said, nobody insulted your pa, OR you, this time, yet. But with the attitude you have, expect it soon. And for that matter, it doesn't mean jack shiznit that you've turned wrenched on Porsches, Passats, or a Pugeot, you're still a douchebag.

Tom, I've got no quarrel with you, but this kid of yours...well, makes me real proud to say I'm not on any OTHER forums he's still allowed on. No offense, but he reads a little too much into the quote/unquote tongue-in-cheek humor of this post. Xanax, by chance?

Now, as I said once before...IBTL. :toilet:

First off, dumbass, his name isn't "shane"...and two, if it takes building a faster car than yours to gain your respect, you're a fool AND a douchebag. And hey, I like some Chevy's also, happens to be what I drive. I also like Mustangs, Pontiac Fieros, Jeeps, and some older AMC cars. Who wouldn't like to drive a Lambo?

Point is, you come off as all high and mighty..a spoiled rich kid. Guess what Holmes...nobody here gives a fat shiznit. I can't speak for anyone here but myself, but I'd rather see passion, heart and soul, blood, and long sleepless nights poured into a car, than what some rich shiznithead dumos out of his wallet and doesn't appreciate. AKA eye candy.

Yeah, I'd love to own a 100 K custom built fun car....oh wait...I own a 1500 dollar fun car. May not be as fast as yours, but I built it myself, the way I want, and that is all that matters. You know, I also don't shaging brag it up every other post that someone else makes, like someone else I know.

Actually, I left it open and noted why in my post.  I opened it up for Tom to actually post pics, etc of some projects, or to start his own thread about it.

I deleted pics out of a post he made in someone else's thread that had nothing to do with the topic at hand. It was not the place to post about it, that's it.  It would be like me posting about the motor mounts I build in someone's thread about dual exhaust.

Now he seems to have taken his ball and gone home, which is fine.  Unnecessary, but fine.

Why should he answer? He's pretty much being attacked! That's not what this forum is about.

Vinny, well said I totally agree

Yea me and my dad are pen 15y, but nobody's perfect, that doesnt make the info we post wrong or bad, we have had a ton of fox fords. we come on here because we love tbirds, not drama. Believe me if somebody on my GM sites bashed my 2.3 I'd fire back the same way.

 I'm just sick and tired of the 2.3 board members like Shane who try to call my dad out or put him down, I won't stand for that, not now, not ever. Shane wants to try to make my dad look bad, I'll post 100 Porsches in our shop and make him look like the retarded clown he is. Don't bring a knife to a gun fight Shane you'll loose every time

Call me old school, BUT I rarely bash someone unless we're face to face. Then you can read between the lines of fact or bullshiznit.

WTF....has everyone got cabin fever? There's a guy getting bashed over on another forum I belong to.  :nono:

Beau pretty well summed up anything I have to say to you. It looks like snowflake completely missed the scope of this thread. Sorry, it wasn't intended for you, and certainly not to get you all fired up. Slow the eff down, read, comprehend. I have not, nor considered calling ANYONE a LIAR about anything. Feel free to back that one up. Well, not till this very moment. MILLION dollar cars? Alrighty cupcake. FWIW from what I have seen, Tom obviously knows some stuff and does some nice work for his customers. I'm sure they are happy. This could have been a great opportunity to share that work/pride without some loaded reason or response behind it.

As for the personal attack on myself and my work, I built what and I wanted and met my goals. Your shiznit slides fight of me. This spring my new forged/ported/mildly cammed/SC motor should be under the hood. Yay. I do/did it for me. I don't care who or what is faster, has more money etc. one tiny, miniscule, iota, of a bit. Unlike yourself. Good thing you have dad to hold your hand snowflake.

That, your shop, customer cars and experience doesn't mean y'all are always correct either.

FWIW the only thing I'm calling out, in a it's all good kind of way mind you, is the arrogant self riotous snot nosed elitist know it all attitude. Also, working on 100 customer porsches and bragging about it is like me building multi million dollar buildings and bragging about that. Get over yourself.

I'm going to have to call you spoiled. Most people have to earn their way up to working on "high end" cars. Funny thing though, the only differance between a honda mechanic and a porshe mechanic is how clean he needs to be when he pulls the car out of the garage. Its still just a motor in a car. The more expensive the car is, the more bull you have to go through to check your own oil, and how expensive an oil change gets.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
