Re: What's happened to the "old" timers?

along with all his cars... what about:

richard lee?
peter wong, aka rudeboy

the dude in texas (chris and setha?) was fixing one up, then never heard any more. think he installed the trans cooler in the bed and drilled a bunch of holes for airflow? maybe that was someone else.

Re: What's happened to the "old" timers?

Hey guys. Daron IM'd me and gave me this link. I'm still around. I don't have a SyTy any more. I sold my last Syclone to a friend of mine last year. I don't know if he's on this board or not. His name is Jimmy C. Live's in Lee's Summit, MO near me.

I met up with Jim Sloan last week. He lives in Lawrence KS and is one of the core guys. He's got his built Syclone and a Typhoon still. I also talk to Zach Mann now and again. I believe they are all on this board.

I'm still in KC. I tried to move to Cali and be a porn star but they didn't want any more minute men. So, after financial hardship (no pun intended), I had to move back to KC and run my insurance office.

I still dabble with cars. My project car is almost complete. It's a C5 Z06. Torch Red with a black mono stripe and my own custom designed air splitters. The heart is an LS2 alum block 402 CID stroker with twin turbos and an air to air intercooler. I just got it fired last week and need to put in a good tune.

Good to see you all again. SyTy's will always be a part of my life.

I emailed Richard couple months ago. I know he has his truck still.

Peter I think posted his for sale last year on nwstp. Not sure anything since.

In a lot of ways I still feel like one of the newer members, but I can see that isn't so true anymore.

How about Curtis Clark and Chris Barzman?

Windstorm Advisor and Kenne Bell Syclone Typhoon News... I still have photocopies of all the SyTy News I think... A binder full. and have some Windstorm Advisors too.

Back in the day it was pretty much just rich guys that had SyTys. Now anyone can get thier hands on one.

Marty still talks to Curtis Clark on a regular basis. Windstorm stopped years ago due to no funding, etc.

Lavy sold his truck long ago...


Biggest mystery I wanna know is what happened to Rick Krupa. One day RK Kustom was up and running and the next it was completely gone without a word. I had finished a logo for him a few weeks prior before he suddenly vanished.

Re: What's happened to the "old" timers?

oh, and good ole jimmy fawks (saudisy) still likes to make an appearance on the OE SyTy Mail list and continue to make an asshole of himself and belittle others from time to time.
Dennis Olingher (sp?) also makes apperances to stir the shit in the pot and call Daron out for misc stupid shit...which Daron usually replies back and puts Dennis in his place.

Chris Pearson... married again, has a daughter with another one in the oven.

The mailing list is STILL ACTIVE?!?

That is the most suprising part of that post. It's not shocking that JF is still a drooling retard with a limited vocabulary, but I didn't know the list was still going.

Re: What's happened to the "old" timers?

Depends on your definition of "active".

An average of 1-2 posts per 1.5 weeks is not to active in my opinion. 9 times out of 10 its someone selling their truck. Personally, I really wish Dourty would just dig the knife in and kill it completely..... force the rest of the straglers into todays method of communication on forums.

But then I cant read Darons posts calling out Dennis on his dumbass rants of the relative theory of hydrodamics and how it affects your sparkplugs and knock values while in turn feeding more fuel into your intake 40* cooler than what it would be if you routed it through the heater core and used the AC to cool it down.

Hmm.. hope the $100 he sent me didnt cause it! Told him over and over not to worry about paying me and it was on the house. He insisted.

Seriously though, thats surprizing since I thought business was going well for him...especially with floor mats and dash covers. I never once didnt see anyone not asking for them all the time. Top quaility stuff too. Wherever he is, I hope hes doing well. Stand up guy with a very nice truck.
