No Rick your safe. The signs are yours. But apparently in an upcoming issue of Musclecar Enthusiast your car belongs to Soupy Sales.

Steve, Any Show would welcome your collectin of Cars and we all know that. What really caught me off guard with that post is I guess he didnt check with Dave Libby who was at SCR7 to see how the car was displayed. I would bet that Dave never said your R/G COPO was displayed as a Harrell Car because IT WAS NOT!!! Does he really think that you would try to pass a COPO car off as a Harrell car esp with Mr Libby there!!!!

Some things in life never change, including mis-information in magazines. But, in defense of Bob McClurg, who I know does his best to get things right, and feels bad when an error occurs, he was under a lot of pressure the weekend of SCR7. He was surronded by over 75 very special cars, each with its own unique story, and only had two days to photograph them and gather info. This would be tough for anyone, but especially tough for Bob, as he was not aquanited with any of the owners.

Bob has told me that he is looking forward to shooting even more features at SCR8, and feels things will go a lot more smoothly, since he is now part of the sYc family.

I intentionally passed myself off as Frank in that article too! Too funny, 'much ado about nothing'.

Very good post Bruce.

The funny thing is that members of the sYc have been getting bashed and bashed and have taken the route of turning the other cheek. This was good at first but has gotten old. Now it is time to set the record straight. They can invent a whole forum of bashing about us and it made a little dent but when we make one single post the effects are like an atom bomb.

Don't sweat it Steve. Those guys are a bunch of losers. I would say that 99.9% of them DON"T own supercars and a good percentage of them don't even own any car at all. Not that there is anything wrong with that because I have been there, but to bash the guys that do have them?? Why are they so jealous? Seriously? It is truly mind boggling.

The funny thing is that there "leader" tried to go off on his own and FAILED MISERABLY!!! Now he claims that he is not even interested in supercars anymore! Could that be because you have alienated a $hit load of people that own them and they do not want to have anything to do with you anymore? The rest of them, ones that were banned, exiled, lost souls, who knows. Most of these guys are wrapped up in bad deals, fake cars, inner fighting, money, money, money, and have no true love for the hobby.

The sad part is that most people reading this have no idea what we are talking about and probably don't even care. I don't blame them. The bottom line is that the Yenko Sportscar Club is truly a great bunch of people. I bet a huge number of active members/posters can read this and honestly say that they have learned more than they ever have about these cars, obtained the car of there dreams, and met the best bunch of people they ever have in this hobby right here. I know I have and I bet those guys over there have through this site as well.

Anyone ever watch Nanny 911 on TV ? If the baby is crying you ignore him and he goes to sleep. It's hard for the parents and sometimes they give in. But it works out best for the crying baby.
