I apologize to all the "curious" members but now ya know. However, a couple "serious" prospects last night didn't mind sending an email - fortunately for me, this is NOT a novel approach when dealing with "for sale" items. BTW, no pricing games - one simple price, guaranteed!

In retrospect, I'm sorry for my lousy presentation style. It was more of a response by a "serious" but "frustrated" Cobra owner shopping for a new motor, since winter is here and now is the time we Northeast Coast fools run that obstacle course. However, my post was ment to be more of a criticism of an annoying "for sale posting practice" as opposed to a criticizm of you personally. Your post just happened to be the catalyst after seeing a few others that turned out to be mouse mazes. When buyers scout the net, search the classifieds, shovel through the details, get caught up in the build sheet and finally get to the end of the ad; most people want the bottom-line without feeling like we have to go grovelling to get it. It's frankly a little more practical to know upfront if it's "in our league" before we start making inquiries. Save's us both time and sometimes egos. Unfortunately, for a 100 grand I can build 3 motors pushing that HP to suit my race needs using Dart Blocks and not even think about spinning them. That's obviously an exceptional motor you have but it's appeal will be to a nitch market with deep pockets and different priorities. I'm sure someone will be thrilled. BTW: Regarding my tag line; please don't confuse constructive criticism with pompous arrogance. I didn't really mean to offend YOU and again "I apoligize". Good luck peddling your motor.
