    Question Please Declassify Me

    I want to be unclassified, as I no longer understand the purpose of such categorizations.

    I logged in the other day to find two surprises. First, I'd been reclassified without requesting it, and second, I'd been entered into a JFO without getting to choose whether to accept. The latter has happened before, and I wasn't happy about it then either. I've decided to block all face offs and JFO's because I'd at least like the chance to agree before being placed, unaware, into a showdown.

    Second, my car mysteriously went from Moderately to Lightly Modified. Holy McLeod, how'd that happen? Here are my mods:

    STAGE 1 : APPEARANCE
    Momo T1000 black floor mats
    Momo Pit Stop chrome e-brake handle w/red leather, yellow lettering
    Momo Combat Evo red/black shift handle and boot
    Momo Grand Prix aluminum pedal covers (red/silver)
    Steeda aluminum dead pedal
    UPR billet clothes hangers
    UPR billet AC knobs (red light)
    UPR billet turn signal cover
    UPR billet coin holder delete
    UPR "GT" cigarette lighter plug
    UPR front and back cup holder inserts
    UPR gear shift trim ring
    UPR billet door switches
    35% window tint sides, 20% tint in rear
    Translucent red license plate cover (removed at police request but looked good while it lasted)
    Nashville 40th Anniversary commemorative decal
    Chrome "Mustang GT" doorsill strips
    Black Cat Custom silver gauge faces w/ red backlighting
    O'Reilly generic silver shift knob
    Momo black & red leather shift boot for silver knob
    Momo black & red e-brake boot
    Custom Wheelskins black & red steering wheel cover
    Ford Racing 17x8 1999 polished aluminum Cobra wheels, coated immediately with Eagle Nanowax wheel polish for protection
    Chrome valve stems
    McGard locking chrome lugnuts
    Red Cobra valve stem caps
    Brake calipers painted glossy black

    STAGE 2 : SOUND
    Kuda black leather ipod mount for black iPod
    Alpine CDA-9851 CD receiver
    Alpine KCA-420i ipod control interface
    2 Infinity Reference 1042W DVC 10" subwoofers
    Alpine amp MRP-F240 40x x 4 @4ohms
    Alpine amp MRP-M350 200 watts RMS x 1 @ 4 ohms
    Q-Logic sealed and carpeted enclosure with Kicker grills
    Infinity 6810cs 6x8: Reference component system (doors)
    Rockford Fosgate CP4DCKS dual amp 4 gauge wiring kit
    Kenwood KFC-6879ie 6x8" speakers (rear deck)
    Rockford Fosgate 1-farad capacitor
    300 hz bass blockers
    150 hz bass blockers
    6x8" oval speaker baffles
    Four rolls of Dynamat
    Lots and lots of 16 gauge speaker wire
    Amp base made from sawed-down MDF, lots of bolts with spacers, and metallic vinyl

    STAGE 3 : PERFORMANCE
    Accufab 75mm throttle body and plenum
    Throttle body spacer
    Bridgestone/Firestone Fuzion ZRi Z-rated tires
    K&N FIPK air intake
    Diablosport Predator performance tune
    Magnaflow catback with welded on chrome tips
    FRPP 3.73 gears
    Steeda Tri-Ax short throw shifter
    McLeod 800 series clutch
    New throwout bearing
    Quadrant, firewall adjuster
    UPR catted x-pipe
    Water Wetter in the radiator
    TPS replaced, tuned by Delk

    Classified thusly, I could have tons of fun picking off Stangs with pony wheel caps and a pair of Wal-Mart door speakers, if I were the predatory sort.

    The car challenging me in the latest JFO was also classified as Lightly Modified. It has nitrous, which I thought was part of the Heavily Modified criteria, but is otherwise similar to mine. Its owner may also have been surprised to find such a nice car was now considered barely breathed upon by the gods of combustion.

    I feel bad about this JFO because a lot of people lost wagers on my car, and I didn't even have the opportunity to evaluate the situation first.

    So I'm getting out of the faceoff game entirely, as it's gotten too rich for my blood. The Moderately Modified class probably includes people with twin turbos and ported heads, and Heavily Modified cars might now even go to the moon. I no longer want to be classified as anything but Sponsored by ME.

    * If being declassified prevents me from being in teams or groups, then please leave me in whatever echelon strikes your fancy - I still want to be part of the community, but let my dissatisfaction with the system remain on file.

    I did... sorry J for venting... you know I luv ya and it's all good... just was taken by surprise to find a note saying, guess what, you lost! I was like "Huh? Lost what?" Sometimes there's a message asking if I want to accept a faceoff, but sometimes not.
