Nice work Keith, well reasoned informative reply.

The rest of you should move your pissfight to the restroom. This is my opinion, which you may or may not give a flyinabout

It would seem that the article is actually from Road & Track via Fox somehow, so the source is slightly less controversial.

Ha, that's pretty funny. It was published on Road & Track's site a few days ago, I didn't know it had been picked up by Fox.

Thank you for defining a problem with this country in a nutshell right there. News isn't about politics, news is about facts. How you feel about them determines your politics. I don't give a hoot about Rupert Murdocks or Bloombergs POV. Sorry, I read BBC US page daily, I like, no crap, no slant, just facts It's nice.

If you think the BBC doesn't have a slant you're out of your goddamn your mind. Even my beloved Economist lets bias rear it's ugly head sometimes.

Media bias is a given across the spectrum. The fact the FS has such a boner against one source is making me consider him not to be FS, but be FoS instead.

Oh, and congrats to Keith and his partners to be recognized by two prestigious, biased media providers.

Painfully obvious you don't pay attention.

But, this wasn't the time or place to bring up a media bias debate, sorry Keith, I will delete my comments

Great Job.

You guys are really killing me…I’d love to engage in a dialog about Benghazi, the IRS, Eric Holder, etc. with you, my favorite “community”, but I don’t because I respect GRM’s rules.

But here you are, taking something that’s totally about engine swaps and one of our community members being recognized as a leading authority and you manage to zero in on the irrelevant fact that FOX news happened to published the piece.

For Christ’s sake, we’ve even got Miata content going on here…you laugh and laugh at people who see Hitler in a Tea Pot while remaining convinced there’s some nefarious conservatism lurking under the hood of an engine swap.

Epic, epic face palm with an extra dose of head shake.

Thank you very much for saying exactly what needed to be said!!!

Back OT, it's cool to see a group like FM get some nice pub from something other than the usual automotive outlets.
