BugMan = THE Man

**DieselNuts** · 07-09-2008, 08:40 AM

So I installed an o/r x pipe on my Cobra 2 weekends ago but ended up with a pretty disgusting exhaust leak. The exhaust sounded good from the rear of the car, but from the front and side....well, my best description is an old 60's beat up farm truck. I was trying to think of someone who could help me out with this and it donged on me.....BugMan.

We wrote back and forth a couple times and through these PM's, he denied my offer for cash and for beer. Even though the fix took 20min. tops, I still feel that I owe him something.

BugMan, you have a great family, a beautiful plot of land, a kick ass collection of mustangs and all sorts of cool toys. Your hospitality is second to none. Thank you and Austin for your help.

**Elbow** · 07-09-2008, 08:42 AM

**antiv6** · 07-09-2008, 08:02 PM

**Double_0_Rusty** · 07-09-2008, 08:13 PM

Chris (Bugman) is a really stand-up guy, I have known him for awhile now on and off IA. He and his family are TEH awesome. His collection of cars is sick, and he just bought my 74 Celica a few weeks back. I could call him anytime if I needed help, and he'd be there.

So far I havent scraped on anything with my Bassani X. I know everyone has their preferences on the sound of X vs. H vs. Prochamber, but I am a fan of the 0/r X...

**antiv6** · 07-09-2008, 08:48 PM

**DieselNuts** · 07-09-2008, 08:53 PM

LOL, yeah. We finally met at the last one. He might have thought I wasn't coming, but then..... BAM!!!!! I rolled through, hopped out of the truck while it was still moving and ran to where he was before he could leave with the wife and kids.

**MachNU** · 07-10-2008, 07:13 AM

same here!

**yogi08** · 07-10-2008, 08:04 AM

it would take me about 23 seconds for my truck to make it all the way down the 1/4 mile LOL! but maybe not if i put 31's on it.. hm. kidding.

end of story, bugman is THE man as the title says. he probably wouldnt even screw you over if you screwed him.

**03RCode** · 07-10-2008, 12:43 PM

He helped me a while back with some questions about my battery shutoff switch. Great guy, very knowledgable. Every board needs more like him.

**BUGMAN** · 07-18-2008, 04:34 PM

Sorry fellas I just found this by searching my name to make sure I didn't forget to reply to a thread somewhere.

Nothing special here but we never mind lending a helping hand. It's all about helping each other when needed and that's what makes the world go roundy round.

Diesel it was great meeting you as well and we appreciate ya hanging around a bit and shooting some pool afterwards. Your welcome here anytime Sir.

Nope not gay but willing to learn new things. Would you like to come by one night and give me a "hand"?

Thanks a lot for the compliment but it was 95% trial and error my friend.

You can go to you tube or any of the movie hosts and search for bugday, bugman racing @ Carolina and plenty other mixed searches and see tons of video over the past several years.

We do this every year the Saturday after Thanksgiving. It started out kinda small but has turned into an awesome event with some of the best people you will ever meet racing and having a good time. If you want to see some good racing and meet some awesome people come out this year.
