Just wanted to give a shoutout to my man Markski :)

We all know what the forums are about: sharing car information. There is always a plethora of great and helpful information and some terrible misinformation that just gets repeated by people that dont have any firsthand knowledge. I think we all know that there are quite a few veteran members on here that are VERY valuable resources for this community. Markski is one of those members.

I just wanted to send a public "thank you" for spending over an hour of his day (or should I say late night ) on the phone with me guiding me towards an endpoint on my car. Over the years, I have lurked and just recently signed up, but there are a bunch of members from which I have learned a wealth of information. Marksi is one of the first to spend a decent amount of time with a total stranger and point me in the right direction with full disclosure and honesty. Not everyone is willing to do that, so I figured it would be appropriate to say thanks.

Mods, please move this if it in the wrong section.

+2 Markski has also helped me out countless times. Been on the phone for hours at a time explaining to me the pros and cons of each mod. I greatly appreciate all his help for steering me in the right direction every time.

He is a rare breed for sure. How many of the top guys in his particular class or niche are willing to help and share so much information? He has spent time on the phone and over PM with me on several occasions and is just a genuinely nice and helpful guy.

Thanks Mark!

Talking Hip Hip Hooray for Markski!

Markski has been a great sounding board and wealth of knowledge and experience.
I very much appreciate all his help over the last 3 years.
I was hoping to place Sean (Dr Jitsu) in charge of a fund raiser and we could do something nice for Marski. Like a down payment on a CGT or something.
From the bottom of my main journals THANK YOU MARKSKI
