Today i saw a cavalier going on the roundabout on the wrong lane and then went off it over on the fast lane and then taligated straight way another small car (micra i think) that was already overtaking on the dual carriage and i dont jus mean tailgating..its was trying to muscle the small car ot of the way....I then got on behind his **** and gave him some of his own medicine and he still decided to keep on the fast lane after he had cleared the other cars... I then gave him a very quick undertake and slowed down in front of him and kept to the speed limit and still overtaking trafic on the slow lane.

Had he tried to tailgate me I would of done the same has I do to all other that do it and up goes the handbrake and whatch someones face go a bit pale.

The other day I also gave put some chavie on a 106 rally in his place for tailgating me on the dual carriage way (I hit the 116 limiter) and he was a small white dot on my mirror and i then went down to 70 and let him overtake...he didnt look very happy and very square faced has I waved him bye.

I think some people here should get ot there and find some yobs that trully deserve a good lecture and not bother with threads like this

The words hypocrite and double standards also spring to mind>>>>>> Hypocrisy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

WBR
you complain of someone tailgating, so you then decide to do the same to him. Making you just as bad

You then admit to doing 116 MPH well done.

Bit of a stupid post all in all

I dont think you got the moral of both examples i put across hence if you had a brain you would be dangerous.

Yes I did admit to doing 116mph....and your point is????

I dont know wich posts have more baring on this thread... two of yours or two of mine

I think you,some others around here and indeed many other forums carry the keyboard with you at all times just in case you get into a fight

I assure you I'm not scared of a fight mate, but im not going to get dragged into one of these rows.

There was no aggression in my first post, nor will there be in this one.

im all for having a little exaggeration sometimes (well before my wrx engine gave up and i got my current little diesel)... but some of the newbies on here are just ageing chavs. whats the point in joining a supposed adult forum with a bit of banter and having a laugh with fellow enthusiasts, and then just baiting others with stories of blatant illegal street racing.

im not gonna lie, when i was in my old wrx as fore mentioned above, i drove like a proper cunt sometimes, but being in a much slower little diesel 106 now, makes me realise the traffic light grand prix isnt the be-all and end-all. yes and before the pc warriors kick in, i know he (martin bla bla bla wrx) was racing from a rolling start.

if you guys (oldies and newbies) who continuously boast about reckless speeds wish to do so, start up your own forum "chavnet" maybe?? or carry on driving like *****, but just dont bait everyone on here and spoil what is supposed to be a friendly banteresque forum for all kinds.

whats the fucking point of it all.

and as for gc8, yeah hes a right nasty fucker SOMETIMES, but hes also one of the most helpful guys on here and has many years of experience and knowledge to share with the rest of us. being rough around the edges isnt a bad thing, but ***** like the newbies (who are probably previously banned members with new aliases anyway) going on and on about the same racing dribble...

rant mode off, have a nice day

andy

Man.. the first post you made on this thread had no value and then you decided to come back to the thread just to pick on mine as to try and twist my words!!

What exactly are u trying to achieve here i wonder??

Why don't you leave the bloke alone? He quite clearly stated in the title of his post what it was about, if you don't want to read about his little race with an RS4 then don't - move on.

Like has been previously mentioned, we've all (or most of us) had a little moment of madness. Why have a scoob if you're not going to use it?

So you did exactly what this guy did, and then went one better by undertaking? - What does that make you?

I don't agree with tailgating, but surely this is just asking for an accident??

If someone is tailgating slow down and increase the saftey bubble in front of you - Don't be a muppet and brake / handbrake.

Plus: I thought if you handbraked subaru's you were likely to snap the cable...??

I'm gutted! I've only just found this mildly interesting post Now what can I add to it? Got to admit I have seen a lot of bad spelling and grammar! but I'm prepared to let it go for the sake of the thread. The amount of bull**** is way beyond what could be considered normal for a "I RACED A" thread. Now, it's quite simple really, you lot need to get an EVO, that way no one in their right mind would challenge you, either on the road or, on here. Everyone knows that EVO'S are the fastest, best handling cars on Gods earth and that nothing bar nothing can touch them?

P.S.
Did I mention that I pissed all over a Zonda today on my way to work? Yes, he was on my rear bumper on my private road, or was it the autobahn? anyway I hit the loud pedal and he went into reverse.......................Zonda? did I say Zonda? sorry I meant Honda? always getting those two mixed up.

I used to fall for threads like this, but now you can pretty much read the title, see how many pages there are and predict whats said and which of the usual ***** are stirring **** up.

It amazes me how members are suprised when someone posts they have put their foot down, i mean its a forum dedicated to a fast car did you expect it to contain threads about table tennis or something.

As an admin of another forum its frustrating to see new members join, then get verbally attacked by the long-standing members of this forum and nothing get done about it. These long-standing members should be setting an example to the newbies, helping them or avoiding posts they find not to their tastes. Instead these new members choose to leave, keeping the long standing idiots basically "in-charge" as the administration of this site seem to be spineless and scared to set any ground rules. On my site several posters on this thread would be banned, possibly with a note sent to their ISP and their IP number banned from ever even looking in.

Fortunately there are also long-standing mature members on here who go out of their way to welcome newbies and help them with anything they should need. Its only because of these helpful members that this site attracts anyone new at all. Those who choose to stay have to filter through ton's of crap before they get decent mature replies to their posts.

I think because people are still suprised that people are willingly admitting to racing on the public highway.

The guy posting isn't a newb as he has been registered since Apr 2005.

In that time you would be well aware that these sort of posts get this sort of response.

I enjoy my car by all means but don't feel the need to boast about illegal speeds on a public highway.
I don't race other people either - What if they crash? You're really in the sh*t then as previous stories show.

Of course there are those that just love a good argument

Admitting ? Can anyone enlighten me of the last convicted motorist who had evidence used against them taken from a forum. People boast about the bling they have, the torque, the bhp, the alloys so its not suprising they boast about have a little fun here and there.
If he was saying he ran someone over then it'd be different.

Here is another smarty pants.....

When you decide to take a quote off me make sure you paste whole thing u moaron...not just the bits so that it makes your coment look good...

The point of the hand brake is just small amount so that the speed goes down a bit without the brake light going on...or did you think I would actually put it on full lock on a motorway

Cable snap!!!! WTF you got??? a car or a push bike


Anyone around here fancy giving me a hair cut??

I agree with you mate.

The lad was trying to explain how it was.

There seems to be a lot of people on here just waiting for people to say certain things then they jump all over them with others in their gang joing in.

Sad really.

As you say if you buy a quick car why drive it like a Nun.

That GC8 sounds like a bit of a ***** TBH.

If you`ve been here for 5 years and you`re moaning about people saying "I raced this ect........." maybe its time you moved on and found another board.

Or you could stop moaning about posts.

Put up or shut up.

Is that whats its all about for you post count`s

Tell us all have you ever found anything interesting when you`ve been climbing up GC8`s **** Passage?.

The lad who posted the thread was talking about his experiences with his car and was honest enough to say he was he was left at high speed by the RS4.

I love these posts.

A Guy comes on here saying he had a little play with an RS4, while saying he did 110mph, then gets completely flamed.

Hands up all those who never speed ................................. That's no hands then.

110mph is far from unsafe in the correct conditions, just like 30mph is very unsafe in other conditions.

Give the guy a break, and everyone stop all this "You drive like a tw@t" political correctness bollox. We buy powerful fast cars then berate someone for driving fast.

Lets all hope the government brings in GPS tracking that will fine then ban anyone going over the speed limit, or better still lets hope they introduce the black box that controls the cars speed. Can't wait

Thats right Andy, don`t you sway away from the Clique.

Much safer to have a go at the "Newbies".

BTW do you race 17 year olds in your 106 Diesel when they`re in their Saxo VTR`s.
