This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Dick Bradshaw won't come on the BB's at all.

    you don't see Jim Burek much, i'm sure because he get's tired of dealing with the same old sh!tstorm.

    of those who have gotten their blocks, most i would presume are rather busy trying to get into competition for this season.

    i think it's more telling that you're not seeing threads titled "where's my block, damnit" anymore than it is that you're not seeing threads titled "I got mine".

    Let's hope so for all those guys that hung their butts out in the wind. I'd like to know they're too busy fondling their new piece of iron to spend time talking about it.

    I have sat on the sidelines and watched this whole Bulldog block controversy for some time. I finally can not help but respond.
    First off, I do not have, nor do I expect to have (as far as I can tell at this point) any personal interest in a Bulldog block, beyond what it will do for the reputation of Buick.
    I will restrict my comments to a few lines, although I could write a whole page....
    First, to those of you who ordered a block and are waiting patiently for it, you are the TRUE Buick faithful. My hat is off to you!!!!
    Second, if you did not order a block, shut the f*** up. Its not your money on the line and you obviously dont get it.
    Lastly, if you ordered a block and backed out, you dont get it either.
    I could go on and on, but I think you get my point...

    Now Nick, if that is your opinion, than logically you should have STFU too. This whole BB is about sharing opinions, and if only those with the same opinion were allowed to voice theirs' it wouldn't be worth viewing.

    How many potential buyers might have thrown their money out there not knowing the situation at hand were it not for the people with negative opinions saying so and being allowed to explain why?

    Nicholas. You must brush your teeth with gun powder to shoot your mouth off like that. I will not go into great detail but dick made many false promises to try and lighten MY load by almost $10,000 cnd for 2 blocks that would be ready for shipping in 2 weeks 2 years ago. I still have the distributership papers here to prove it. You like many other people on here that have NO right to have a opinion on this matter and have NO clue about the way things have gone down with this whole deal but speak about something you know nothing about. I speak from my experience with Dick and nothing else. Opinions are like butt holes but yours appears to be made from paper. :Dou: Chris
