[quote=BC Sniper][b]that’s pretty nice of them since you have done nothing but talk shit about them for the past several months.
You have been a paying customer and everything, but when one makes claims like you have it would be enough reason for many to just tell you to go fuck yourself[/b].

…haha glad you saw that.
It gave me a smile and a nice chuckle before leaving work. Surprisingly he did not respond like I thought (i.e. getting extremely pissed and start attacking me)
^^^that’s because you were bang on right, and his games have finally worn out their welcome on just about all of the forums. Maybe a few of his PNW butt buddies still stick up for him and kiss his ass, but everyone realises he has basically lost his fucking mind. His recent ‘data pulls’ where he’s going to try to make a million excuses for his car with ebwerks exhaust being no faster than his car with stock exhaust. Going to be fun to watch him compare his car with JHM exhaust to his car with ebwerks exhaust. He may fail to mention taking another 150 lbs out of the car in that time as well as getting an updated tune from JHM.
Guy is a complete flake. Looks good on him.
Wow this guy gibsonl/daytonars4 loves to prove he is clueless every time he opens his mouth lol.
Clearly he knows nothing about and has likely never been to the dragstrip. You can do a quick blip of the tires to clean them but you are not doing a fucking tire smoking burnout in an Audi with quattro.
I swear these guys see shit on TV and then spin that off as their"knowledge" or experience about a subject.
Remember thus guy said he has been to the strip in his RS4…yet here he thinks a dragstrip visit constitutes massive tire burning burnouts in an RS4 lol.
That is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen, I kinda wish he would have drove down here to take my money now!
I think I have heard my tires squeel once or twice, but nothing like a burnout.
Some guy actually asked gibsonl how to do a burnout because he wants to go to the strip…
Reply…
Traction and stability full off and rev to around 5500 IIRC. Then dump the clutch
…wonder why his clutches don’t last.
I understand spinning all 4 tires is more than possible, but there isn’t much of a point in a burnout on street tires, they decinigrate when they get hotter, the don’t get sticky like slicks or drag radials. It amazes me too that all of the anti-1/4 mile posse over there are giving fuckin tips, gibsonl showing the most interest.
What a fucking joke this guy is. 5500 rpm clutch drops in your barely modded RS4? Sounds like he has been watching ngng’s YouTube channel
Edit just read the rest of what he wrote…he claims before his runs, he does a 3 to 5 second burnout. To understand how obviously that is a lie, first count 5 steam boats in your head to understand what 5 seconds really is.
GIBSONL…if you can show me a video of you doing A 5 second long burnout in your RS4 I will mail you $50.
In fact I would love to see a video of ANYONE in a quattro enabled Audi doing a 5 second long burnout at a dragstrip. Impossible. You would end up 300 feet down the track.
What a fucking joke. If only the quattroworld muppets knew a god damn thing, they would laugh him off the forum when he says shit like this. Good to see snow trooper posting in there.
Some tracks don’t even allow awd burnouts for track worker safety reasons. I always make sure and ask so I don’t risk being that guy.
That was kind of funny. Unless he’s doing donuts in the water box ;D ;D ;D, no tires are being spun for more than half a second.
not so much lulz but just damn dumb that audizine would delete a fairly involved thread around updating the MMI to the 3g+ on the B8…
suprised richi hasn’t been banned for mentioning those details^^
First sponsor to post a “mmi3g+ retrofit kit” will be guilty or is it just audizine “protecting” itself :
So I got one for you guys…our boy gibsonl thinks he has a vacuum leak that he can’t track down. The video is not at idle, remember that
http://forums.quattroworld.com/rs4b7/msgs/89713.phtml
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VmQlGrgYiY&feature=player_embedded
Now I want to think what people that know a little bit about cars think this looks like???
gibsonl… “The video is a full throttle acceleration from 2800 rpm in 6th gear. Hesitates at about 3200rpm, drops to 3000, and then begins to accelerate again.”
As Saki would say…I’d put a coke on it that it’s a slipping clutch, but don’t tell the road race superstar that… or maybe this is what happens when you do all wheel burnouts in the water box at the strip.
Also, none of the idiots over there actually chime in with info to help him out, they are more worried about his oil temp.
Richi went off
What’s he going to do now…post on Quattrofail?
[QUOTE=richib86;8064570]yea thanks anthony for screwing us. forums are for coming to find information and youve eliminated the information at a crucial point where people are receiving everything. no1 is screwing us but you. this is enough for me to say fuck audizine
[/quote]
I don’t know anything about cars but I doubt that is a slipping clutch. Slipping clutch = rpm keep going up the speed of the car doesn’t. This does look like an ECU hiccup/hesitation from something. Vacuum leak seems plausible as the RS4 is a freaking finnicky car when it comes to vacuum issues.
My car ran like crap when I had a vacuum leak, but my issue was at higher rpms. It is a bit peculiar that this only impacts at that rpm…
Looks like a little rpm spike from a slipping clutch but I wish the video was longer.
How the fuck do you get vacuum leak out of that?
P.S. Ghetto fabulous…low on fuel, tpms light going off, clutch slipping.
What you described is a dead clutch but if it us just starting to slip you get forward momentum with rpm spikes. If it only happened at one rpm level that’s kind of weird.
You test it by going wot in top gear from like 30 mph
Umm…doesn’t the post specifically state there was CEL indicating a vacuum leak?
Related to the 3G+ BS on AZ, David was banned by the Mod Gestapo and Anthony spewed his regular crap…more of Rich going off
hmmm…
[quote=anthony]So here are my final words on all of this…
I’m the same ol’ guy that started Audizine back in 2001. Sure it’s gotten much larger since then, and yes I do it full time now, but it’s just me. Same dude. Yes I’ve made mistakes over the years, and oh boy have I learned a lot about running an online community. But you know what, it’s still my baby. That’s one thing that hasn’t changed. I’m the last person that wants to see it go to shit, and that means from the ways it looks, to the members, to the advertisers. I’ve always wanted it to be the best Audi enthusiast community out there. Not the biggest, just the best. Here we are, 11 years later, and wouldn’t you know it we’ve become the biggest and most active one around. Crazy huh? Well, I guess we’re doing something right after all.
Over the years I’ve seen dozens of Audi tuners 'n shops come and go. I’ve witnessed the good and the bad, much less bad thankfully, but still more than I would have cared for. With that though, and with the massive growth the Audi scene has undergone over the past decade, it’s required me to be more cautious in who we bring aboard to market and advertise to the Audizine community. Where once I was happy to bring on any new small fledgling company or just a regular enthusiast slinging parts out of his garage on weekends, that unfortunately can no longer be. In order to get that red username or a banner on the top of the site, they need to not only have a business license but some serious skin in the game. They need fully liable and accountable for their work/products, with some experience under their belt. It also helps to have a clean record, and no previous “run ins” with myself or the Moderator Team.
Let me also remind you really quick, that all of this is for the most part a “B8 forum issue”. It’s extremely easy to get hyper-focused within the one (or maybe two) forums you spend most of your time in, but you have to remember that Audizine isn’t just the B8 A4 Forum, or the B8 A5/S5 Forum. It’s a whole big ass world out there and I have to look out for the greater good of the entire f’n thing!
Having said all of that, it’s still quite possible for a smaller newer company to rise up the ranks and eventually become an Official Advertiser here on Audizine. I know of plenty of success stories, and I have my eye on a number of other up and comers that are doing their own thing and yet not getting their accounts suspended or terminated. It simply takes skills, determination, and most importantly patience. When they’re ready, and the time is right, they can go from doing pretty well on the side to doing amazingly well as an Official Audizine Advertiser. David isn’t the first, and he most certainly won’t be the last. We also aren’t making him stop his modding, or stop helping all of you on the forums. It’s just that for right now, he cannot market and sell those products publicly on the forums, just like the 90K other Audizine members that aren’t official advertisers. I’m pretty sure we can all handle that.
If you have anything you’d like to discuss, or any additional feedback or suggestions to these recent events, I’m always here and available by PM or email. Please don’t hesitate to reach out.

so GSG was fully licensed with serious skin in the game? haha
Anthony cracks me up.
He’ll go on and on about people posting relevant things for a platform that will further advance it.
Then you get things like Unitronic coming into the B6/7 S4/RS4 Area and posting their mass spam post about their tunes.
They don’t include any relevant information for the platform, nor do they even post a relevant video (because 2.0T GTI’s are excessively relevant to 4.2L V8’s… : ) and that is perfectly fine, because they have “serious skin in the game”.
Rididuclous
