Which effectively translates to: "the car was fast, I have no measurable way to show it, but that's what my butt-o-meter says." Yes you're entitled to your opinion, but when you say the car is fast, someone like me is going to eventually come along and ask you how fast, which you can't answer. So it's completely subjective, not objective.

I have no desire to "look better". I'm not in this business. What I will do is call people out when they can't back up their claims. Evidently some would prefer to just let them continue to spew their bullshit and never question it.

Not everybody is looking to run 10s. To the AED customer base, fast could be mid 11s

There's nothing wrong with that, at all. There's just that one forum which is a massive AED circle jerk, where Shaun pays protection money to the owner to be able to do that, where all his ballwashers carry on and on about how great he is, even though he has no measurable results anywhere close to plenty of other people in the business. People read this, don't know any better, and buy into the hype too. The OP in this thread asked for opinion about calibrations from Shaun and Jeff. I gave him mine, and stand by it.

Oh I know, I've seen it lol. It can be amusing and annoying.
I agree Jeff would be a good option, mainly due to the fact he's local which is a huge plus when it comes to the bigger mods

Revolution Auto seems to be becoming the new AED tuner of email tunes. But there are a good bit of those guys with actual track results too to back it up. Lots of CJ mani cars coming from there late.
