I have met Ralph and talked with him many times. (he probably hates hearing my voice) Usually I am picking his brain, sometimes I let him know what I have found out from my testing to see what he thinks. Ralph has never "bashed" any manufacturer to me, and we have talked about them all. I think Silversurfer pretty much has it right. Ralph really has a love of these hobby engines, why else would he do what he does for next to nothing??????????????????????????

Actually I don't think Ralph gives a hoot one way or another about most anything. Note that he's fully retired and for all intents and purposes his engine work and sales is done for fun and something to do. At what he charges for his work HE CAN'T be making much, if any, money at it. Overall I think he's rather altruistic by providing so much knowledge, talent, and effort to so many for so little for so long. Now because he tells it like it is (Synergy, like you
and me
) some get a little hot because it might step a little hard on someones favorite brand. I suppose it could be like telling someone his girlfriend is ugly, but unfortunately sometimes that's true[X(]
Ya'll will give me a moment to don my Nomex, won't you?[8D]
