This Ron guy is sure one deep brown noser...


In a while, Chet.

re: Gas Monkey update: Discovery drops Rawlings

Doc here,

I donno..But any product / concern , that needs "That much advertising" has got to have a problem..

Unless he is going under the premise.."a bad rep is as good as a good rep.."..

It keeps the name foremost in the news.. (Worked For Nixon, Right..?? ...."I am not a criminal.......And Billybob Clinton.."I did not have Sex with that woman..Miss Lewinski..)

Doc

re: Gas Monkey update: Discovery drops Rawlings

I should re-iterate that we don't have proof that Overhaulinforums.com is Coker-related, or Discovery-related, but, at this point, I do think that it warrants attention. The brown-nosing for the show represents some sort of ulterior motive, and the timing of the forum's opening is conspicuous.

Also, I couldn't help but notice that Coker Tire registered CorkyCoker.com, 6 days ago, and put up an article about Corky.

Coker is trying to make it such that, when you go to Google, and type in "corky coker", our "Corky Coker Is a Jerk" article gets buried under his fake web pages. I wonder if he will be successful?

re: Gas Monkey update: Discovery drops Rawlings

Jon maybe you should register www.cokertires.com

or www.cokertire.net
or www.cokertire.org
or www.corkeycoker.org
or www.corkeycokerisajerkofatireboy.com
or just see how many combinations of coker and corky/tire you can create. 20 bucks a year is very cheap per website.

maybe you can start selling these sites back to him at 1 grand a piece?

re: Gas Monkey update: Discovery drops Rawlings

Doc here,

Had to laugh at the mental picture I just got reading the Coker article (or the Hornblower Cruise..as I refer to it..)

From that article:
Quote:
Extremely active in politics and electioneering in East Tennessee, Coker has served the Hamilton County Republican Party in numerous capacities, and has been active in recruiting candidates, fundraising, and designing and implementing campaign plans for numerous local, state and federal officials including U. S. Congressman Zach Wamp.


NOW , why is it I feel like a Duke Boy or Cooter..In Hazard County..just met BOSS HOGG?? I could almost swear I hear Waylon in the background..

"Beats All ya ever saw, Been in trouble with the Law ever since they was born.."

Gotta Run...

Here Comes Roscoe...
(insert background music here: Heart of Dixie and tires burning out..)

Luke and Bo..10-4 and out..

re: Gas Monkey update: Discovery drops Rawlings

I had cleaned up my subscriptions and had 'lost' this thread. Sounds like Mr C. Coker has a size 13 stuck somewhere dark and odorous - looks like he has a real touch of egomania.

Up 'til this debacle I thought that Coker WAS a resto car legend. Not in his own mind Glad I don't putter with restos - I think you're almost stuck for repro tire unless you buy his.

Must be that SEMA award pushed him over the edge
