If you are stalling your Z that often you aren't sports car material....

 

I got 1 more post count, yay.

 

After I saw the "poop" poll, this one didn't seem quite so irrelevant. I voted.

 

ive stalled it about 3 times since xmas 2007 when i got it. but then again, this was my first daily driven stick shift

 

LOL what is deal with these polls and threads lately?

 

Good question.

You should make a poll to investigate . . .

 

0, because I'm pro (pro automatic driver, very difficult to achieve this)

 

mistakes happen...if you're a rookie. I don't stall. I can probably count on two hands, the amount of times I've stalled in the 9 years I've been driving manual.

...I'll probably stall on the way home from work now.

 

The lounge........ where the trash of this forum hangs out.....

 

Just a quick questiong for you guys then, I am about to buy an 06 350z with 19k miles on it and it will be my first manual car. How hard is it to learn on? I have only been practicing on a jetta for a week...

 

This thread is a small slice of greatness pie.

 

Never!!..I'm a 67 year old geezer with 51 years driving experience, all stick!

I still do track events and SCCA Solo 2.

 

 

My z was the first actual manual car I have owned so when I first started driving it, probably 1-3 times, but no I never stall...

 

i stall three times a day

 

Maybe you would like NICO better. Those f@gs sit around the campfire holding hands and singing kumbaya.

Anyway, I don't think I have ever stalled my Z. If you stall your car often enough to remember how often you do, you probably need to be in an automatic with that b!tch shift thing on the side.

 

I guess it's one way to look at it. I don't stall mine either, then again I've been driving for 30 years. Another way to look at it would be maybe the OP is new to a standard and was trying to guage his current performance. If people don't like the thread they could always just move on.

When I don't like a TV show I change the channel rather than sit there bitching about how stupid it is or that I saw it xx times before.

YMMV

 

In 8,000 miles I have stalled the engine three times.

 

As far as his performance goes, if you continue to fail at the same task on a regular basis then you are bad at it. I don't know why someone needs a forum to confirm that they
are doing a poor job, but OK.

I actually wasn't making a reference to how much of a waste of bandwidth this poll was. I was saying that if you agree with that guns forum and feel we are too negative then maybe you would like NICO better. They will congratulate you for wasting their time over there. By the way, if this forum is so bad then why is it by far the biggest Z forum found on the net?

Just out of curiosity, when you see a negative behavior in other aspects of life like raising a child or managing people do you ignore it there too? Or do you do what you should do and coach them on what the expected behavior should be? Because that is a better analoggy than turning the channel when you don't like what's on.

You mentioned sponsors/vendors earlier. What would the membership size be if this forum became nothing more than a place for stupid polls and questions about what is the best CAI? How would sponsors/vendors feel about giving money to a site that people don't go to anymore?

We may be a little crass for your taste and that's fine but the bottom line is that this site has the largest membership and utilization for a reason. That reason is because this site isn't full of a bunch of candy a$$es.

 

For those who think this poll is irrelevant, simply move on and don't answer. There's no need to create tension.
