On your own forum you did okay.

My understanding is that you failed to bring compelling evidence to support the effectiveness of the core you presented. The lowered cost relative to the other vendors is as of yet unexplained which raises concerns considering the thrasher was still two grand when they stopped selling it.

WBS guy flat out states he's not concerned about this interrupting his sales.

ZZP is the best out according to their testing. They have tested against everything on the market about 8 years ago they were actually #2 and admitted it cause the Thrasher bar & plate design was WAY ahead in the cooling department by some 20%+ over the 2nd place ZZP core. ZZP stated that they and no one else for that matter would probably ever go the bar and plate route due to the cost to make it at the time. The Thrasher core was something like $2500+ I guess so I can see why.
PRJ uses the same design but in a slide out removing design and has yet to be tested. It is cheaper then the Thrasher by some $1500 for the core.

Will respond to this one shortly.

So on this page here:

Someone who is NOT you says the Thrasher is 15* cooler than the ZZP.

ZPP claims 144* temp drop so the thraser system is 10.4% "bettered" than the ZZP.

Proof of statement? NONE, thanks guy.

Proof of testing on platform? NONE. Again thanks.

the weight of my car changes by a lot more than 3 lbs depending on how much gas in there. It is NOT even worth bringing up. The air gap idea is the main advantage to this core... not the weight.

Feelings dont help me go faster.

Science does.

You dont seem too banned.

That site generates over $1300/mo which some people wish they made themselves. That is todays figures and back in the hay day it was $3K-$5K/mo. But yet has not been updated. Most try to say it cost money to run it cause of servers and so on but the servers are ran through Mikes day time job so he has no cost of running or any kind of overhead on that site so think about that for a while.
Not that any of this I/C stuff has anything to do with clubGP but just wanted to straighten a couple things out cause of me being a tool.

No **** they're a business. Who isn't?

Never once did I see a mod come in and take action against you.
