Well, I don't know who the mystery friend of the C4 was but he was probably a non-member who may post or just hangs with Badrap. If you can come up with a name or a screen name, I'll check it out. The other one who you're talking about is I assume Jeff who used to have an Eclipse but now drives a black '01 Cobra. Neither he nor 4VChick are members of Badrap either. They post on the board and hang out sometimes. I like both of them and have no problem with either one. Matter of fact, I think they're pretty nice people, but, they have no right to invite anyone to Badrap's spot speaking as Badrap. So, like I said before, I can't think of any Badrap member who would invite an import out to their spot.

Like I said, it doesn't make a whole lot of difference to me but to most of Badrap, it does. And yes you may not consider a stock looking stealth that is pretty fast to be rice, but most of them do. It shouldn't be a secret to anyone that Badrap is a RWD domestic only club..with a couple of grandfathered in exceptions. So it should come as no surprise to you or anyone that you won't be welcomed with open arms if you show up at their spot driving an import. If you want to get unbored and go there, yes, bring the Valiant.

There are plenty of domestics on this board if you want to try your luck...and a lot of them either post on Badrap or are members. I'm one of 'em. Personally, I've been on this board as long as I've been on Badrap...probably a little longer. This is where I found out about Badrap. I'm a dues paying member there but I still check in here too. I just don't post that much over here.

I'm not trying to give you or anyone else a ration of crap here but just tryng to drop a word to the wise. If you get invited to a Badrap get together and you drive an import, check the credentials of who is inviting you before you go or else you might be disappointed in your welcome...which is apparently what happened in your case.
