Post SVX World Network Member of the year 2004!

We all know President Bush is the Man of the Year, so I figured a thread to decide the member of the year would be cool.

Thought about doing this as a poll, but didn't want to limit the selection. Guidlines are similar to the ones that Time magazine uses:

Which member in a positive way, has had the greatest impact on this forum in 2004?

My suggestions:

1. SVXHunter and the Grass Roots Motorsports SVXRex!

2. Longassname and the development of the ECUTune Stage 1-3 performance upgrades for SVXs.

3. SVXtasy completing the first 5spd turbocharged & intercooled SVX!

???

I would like to suggest that we focus on positive things instead of the negative.

I wouldn't like to chose one out of X number, but rather they all contributed into our SVX's best.... either longass, huck, hunter, etc... they are all committed to upgrade the car in any way possible... one cannot measure a chip with a tranny with a bodykit, etc... just a matter of achievement

I go for naming the guys who really did modify the SVX...

I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.

Once I got time and saw the man of the year on the cover, I thought he looked familiar, turns out his vacation house is next to my families in Truckee Andy Grove...
