Normally so, but I'm on the phone right now with Carbie and don't want to hear any more of his whining not to merge this thread. Rick is without a doubt one of the best guys here
Zsnnf- Rick you are an awesome guy! Always generous! a great friend, those of us who met you owe you 1! Ag512bbi- I really respect Armen, he is nice, and he knows his stuff about Ferrari and many others!
hmm only three? okay, I'll try, but it's bound to tick off someone that isn't on this short list. Art - yes, Art, the guy that seems to take a lot of crap from the right, keeps on ticking no matter what is thrown at him. Rob Schermerhorn - just a great friendly guy that knows quite a bit about suspensions & brake systems in general. Wayne - for some reason, this guy, who doesn't own a Fcar, seems to know about every odd and ends with Fcars, and the details regarding their whereabouts (even if cataloged on sites somewhere), along with personal history, and personal pictures that he took of them, well... he's one that I listen up to. If there were only more than three... you'd be on it too.
For me to insert a given name into a list would translate into 'to hell with everyone else' not on the list or those not having their name listed. so.. To honestly put fchat members in perspective.. I will respect our female members in the morning. j/k, I'll get my arse chewed for that one, heh.. In all seriousness, everyone deserves respect or should be automaticly respected until they prove otherwise. Regardless if we are on the net or face to face, how I(we) would treat/respond to everyone should be no different. Recognition occurs when members stand out a little more, but the rules above apply. clear as mud?

I will say that I belong to a couple other car sites and this one definately has the most class by a long shot. There are lots of gret people on this site. It is really hard to single out just 3. I will say hi to my personal friends Terry and Ryan. Both great guys and avid Ferrari lovers.
Note I'm not on anyone's list 1) Jon Kofod 2) 575Mike 3) WMhart There are certainly others - but these guys don't lose their tempers, their posts are interesting and eloquent, and I have learned something from all three.
So many come to mind - but two sources I'll ignore clients for are: Ag512bbi and Napolis thx guys! And of course any of the BB and 288GTO owners
Your on my list, its a big list, so I took the top 3 from LA that are friends of mine (some extremely good friends) and Marty because he is pure class. Sunny
Hard to pick 3 NNO mate i like everyone here but if i had to pick three and at the risk of offending anyone i would choose. 1. NNO. 2. TonyH. 3. Speedy 308.
in no order... JaguarXJ6 Rob Bruce Darth550 Wayne 2000yellow360 Tspringer fatbillybob rgarvin enzo NNO Tillman
The people who's opinions I tend to enjoy are: JimG WHart OldGuy Tom Shaughnessy L. Wayne The people who's opinion I listen to with a grain of salt are: Maranelloman Art (Yeah, I know, contradiction) Carbon (liberal non-member of the he man woman haters club!) I know too many other posters too well to listen to what they say on a chat board.
Bruce has appeared in most of the posts in this thread now. Only a man as generous as Bruce deserves that respect. Bruce has earnt the respect of many people on this board, including myself, and he provides a good example of what a "Top Bloke" represents. Good On ya Brother Bruce Keep up the good work Mike
Three in no particluar order. I haven't met any of them, although maybe someday I will. All three make this place interesting. LAfun2 (aka Ryan): A very reasonable and diplomatic person. An asset to F-chat, he will make a great attorney if he chooses that career. The attorney formerly known as ART360: There is probably little common ground we share with respect to politics in this country, but Art is able to explain his position without ambiguity and lets the chips fall where they may. His explanations of the law are also excellent, regardless of politics. Jonas: Again, we disagree on many, many things. But, I have yet to read an uncivil post from Jonas despite many examples where he would have been more than justified in doing so. One or two times I may have even provided the justification.
Can I add another three to the list for today? sure... maybe another three for tomorrow as well. - Jonas - agreed. I enjoy his posts. - Jon Koford - there are a few little things that have motivated even myself that he's posted about in regards to business, and of course... cars. - 575Mike - inspiring and it showed even more upon talking with him for quite a while one afternoon.
