A shame you blame the car for poor driving skills.

You ever looked into taking a course?

What?!

You know, some people may actually USE the SEARCH FUNCTION!, eh? Being a moderator, you must appreicate the fact I actually used it.

I wasn't trying to flame. And I don't see how the Forums' popularity, which leads to more pages, makes me a bad person for posting.

Get real.

Don't get yourself all in a huff, Mr. Huff. My point was that this thread's last post before yours was weeks ago, so you 'revived' it from the depths for no other reason than to fire a "maybe you should learn how to drive" comment at the OP. Thanks for your contribution to our community.

And yeah, I WOULD have appreciated your use of the search function if it had helped you find information that prevented you from posting the 12 millionth "What mod should I do first" thread, but it didn't. You posted something equally as wasteful and even more mean-spirited. Again, thanks for your contribution and your wonderful attitude. You didn't by chance own a Honda Civic prior to purchasing a Z did you?

No, I didn't own a Honda Civic before the Z. I have owned and currently own a fair collection of vehicles. My post count shouldn't deture respect level.

My point was not to flame. Perhaps he should look into a driving school. Anyone can benefit. Especially people who are driving too fast for conditions, on the street.


Again, I didn't mean to flame. Take it as you wish.

What?! Listen kid. I'm the last person you'd be calling a troll. I get paid real money to drive for a living. I would hope that I can drive better than you. But, then again, I wasn't pointing that out to begin with.

Yes, you are right. I feel sooooo much better about myself now that I've "criticized" you.

Have fun with your Z. Watch out for those curbs, eh?

In all seriousness. You were driving too fast for conditions, with known bad tires, in your sportscar. Hrmm.... Sounds like a brilliant idea. On second thought. Don't come and see me. Sell your car and by a scooter.

you could try and buy it from its new owner... havent heard from him since he bought it though, so i do not know what condition it is in.

and yes, "Fun" is a mild way of putting it


or if you find a mr2 + about $24,000 i could make you a twin of my black one.
