Ok guys,

You know I hang out at www.g2ic.com an integra club board and the guys their are significantly younger in general then you guys.

Now.

I just finished reading this

http://www.g2ic.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=44854


and I made a very quick reply because I was so mad.

I was hoping one of the more mature members here could shut these fools up and make them look like the stupid kids that they are this thread really aggrivated me because this is how they talk LOL.

Funny.

Anyway its semi-lengthy make sure you take a good read if your going to post and dont prove them right on any account =0


Thanks,
CK

I wouldn't worry too much about it, can't shut em all up. Just the next time they take those curves at 80+ and not quite make it, who do think will show up to pull em out of the ditch? An American made V8, thats who. And if they ever pull that maneuver in front of me, well, they better just do it right, cause my 7600lb American Pride don't stop on a dime you know (as a few out there have found out ). That goes for anybody else that thinks they can rewrite the laws of physics.

I know, I'm not much older than many of these guys, but I decided to take a look at this. I only read the first handful of posts, but I got the gist of it. And while I find it very insulting the way these people think, and many times ignorant, I feel it would be hipocritical of me or my fellow FTEnthusiasts to post a massage condemning their way of thought. I know we don't take well to Chevy guys or rice guys coming here to cause problems, and it'd be rude of us to do it to them.
Don't get me wrong, it'll be a cold day in hell before I drive an import, and if someone came up to me and started spouting off this garbage, I'd give him a piece of my mind; but I won't go invade someone else's space to speak my opinion. No matter how foolish it may be, it's a free country, and everyone's entitled to speak their opinion without punishment.

BTW: That moron that made a comment about how annoying it is to be behind a domestic going 25 around a corner when he wants to go 80, he'd better not try that around here unless he wants to get SHOT.

Every now and then we get a "ricer" flame war started on CVN. IMHO, a car enthusiast is a car enthusiast, and we all have the same sort of goals. Unfortunately, the subject brings out the "idiot" in a lot of people.

Profanity Removedis a "touring wing," anyway???

Yeah, that's about what I expected. Most of the little import guys I know are self-conscious about their little cars, and get very self defensive when they see a real car. My favorite thing about my F-250 is that the exhaust goes out in front of the tire, on the right side, at ricer window level. So, they act stupid, try to pass me on the right, all I have to do is hit N and floor it.

i agree that we are all gear heads / wrenchheads no matter what we work on or drive. we all have our favorites. as my personal prefernece i would much rather be in an accident in my truck, i may be a little beatin up but at least it wont total my truck at 20 mph and i could drive it home. most of them imports fall apart and are totaled when they have a low speed impact. i just love pulling up next to a pimped out rice burner kid who thinks he is the s***, then reving up my 390 big block V-8 with dual glass packs and blowin smoke and the sound of fear into his window. then as the light turns green i smoke check him even with my swampers. in my opinion them ricers are missing half an engine, the left bank of cylinders.

I agree with all of y'all. Those kinds of people are ignorant and deserve to be taught a lesson. Each to his own, but what is ironic to me is that I have seen trucks like ours, even 4x4's that weigh 2 or 3 times as much as those little ricers, smoke them like a cigar with a blowtorch. Rather sad when you think about it. But if they love those kinds of cars, good for them.

That forum almost made me jump up on a soapbox.

Not sure G2 is a generation two club but some of the members are cool and dont even have g2's anymore (g2 integras are 1990-1993) it's a particular body style (we the owners) prefer much as I prefer 1973-1979 Trucks to anything newer (granted I like the 97+ SD but cant afford if I want to have this many vehichles =)

I dont wish to deplete the world of petroleum so I drive my little rice burner that looks good (to me anyway) nothign to extreme just pertied it up a little.

I dont think that driving a 4x4 long box super crew with a 460 as a daily would be in the worlds best interest.


So until I can get an electric powered 4x4 super crew with 500hp (LOL) then I guess I will only drive my truck when I can at least justify it!

Anyway,
I really respect the opinions of 99.9% of everyone on this site. Much more mature then the ones on the other site and with the exception of the 16yr olds in the ranger forum with 2000rangers dad bought them (at least dad didn't buy them a mustang ;|) most no what its like to work for your own ride.

I like to drive fast cars in straight lines just to feel the g-forces pressing me in the back w/o having to shift thru a million gears.

I like to drive an overpowered American brutes thru the mud and hills that has lots of power, traction, and is easy to fix w/o needing some special hoopty rig. Theres nothing else like it!

I would also like to take another ride in that mazda rx7 wankel thru the mountains again. Those things handle sweet and rev forever. Ever get a chance to drive one, I highly recommend it!

It just goes to show you, there's a toy for every mood. Sometimes its a snowmobile, sometimes a dirt bike, and every now n then, you might even be found on a go-cart!

I'm not sure anybody should be ******* anybody, everything is just different. About like the hammer calling the screwdriver a useless tool. (However, why someone would want to drive a VW, I have not a clue.)

Just don't send too much money to china, none of it ever comes back!

Thanks for posting that link, i had a good laugh!! just remember that their idea of working and modifying their cars is putting decals on them and a large fart trumpet out the back.
