this thread is just going overboard over a person who speeds and cuts someone off...MY GOD deal with it! everybody goes through it everyday...and it's not always racers that end up cutting you off..it could be any ordinary driver...as for speeding, geez everybody does it. even the people who speeds home because they gotta take a ****...done, problem solved, enough with the dramas and just close this thread already!

 

Oh my GOSH. I was rolling on that one. There were days that I remember running a red light at like 2 in the morning cause I just really really had to get home. Memories.....LOL. Oh damn. Funny stuff.

PS. People gotta have drama to live their lives. i.e. Soap Operas....Reality TV.....having a significant other... see....everyone needs drama to be happy. Just kidding.

 

Maybe I shouldve been more specific. My fault on that. I SHOULD'VE posted regarding a white 350z with the lic. plate 1TURBO. So I figured...post it on here to narrow things out.

yah...everyone speeds and the outcome is usually minor, like a speeding ticket. but this is regarding that driver driving in a wreckless manner. I dont know about you but, I dont want to be on the recieving end of someone's idiocracy and ignorance just because they gotta take a sh*t.

 

..............I agree to a point. While I get a little upset about racers/ricers cutting me off, I'll get angrier when it's the soccer mom in her 5,000# monster...........anywhoooooooooooooooo.................I'm catching a ride with my friend in high school and we are coming out of Kaneohe, maybe 2 o'clock in the morning. We are stopped at the Pali Highway intersection and I swear to God the light is red and we are waiting for 10 minutes. I finally tell my friend, hey man just run the damn light, I want to go home. I mean there were 0 cars on the road and we didn't see anyone.

Yup sure as $hit, the Popos turn on the blue light as soon as we make it through the intersection. I swear to God I never saw anyone, but he had to have been there for the entire time we were sitting at the light..........so we pull over and my friend disappears into the bushes on the side of the road leading into Maunawili. After going through the whole checking insurance/safety check/license/etc the policeman tells me, "When your friend comes back, give him this (the ticket)." Right at that moment, yup my friend shows up again.

I ask him, "Where the hell have you been (while I was dealing with the policeman and getting chewed on by the mosquitoes..........which by the way are all female.....those that are bloodsuckers)." He tells me loud enough for the policeman to hear, "Ho cuz, I had to take a $****."

He tells the same story to the judge and got out of the ticket. So there's my drama story.

 

What's sad is that the heritage of white forefathers who had no true respect for the culture they were dealing with is placed upon the back of current mainlanders who had no part in it.

I've spent alot of time traveling the world, and it becomes obvious to me that many US people have continued to show a shortened concept of respect when it comes to other's cultures. The stereotypes we have been brought up on in TV shows, movies and the like, in seriousness, and in satire lead many American's to often mistreat foreigners, domestic and abroad.

That doesn't leave out the people that live Hawaii. The Aloha spirit is steadfastly dissapearing. You can see it on the streets, in how we drive. In how we treat passerbys while walking through clubs or in malls. Our interactions with each other, the increase of selfishness, and the treatment of simple relationships, friends, business, and otherwise.

Two wrongs don't make a right. Treating someone as a stereotype instead of as a person is one of the worst ways to perpetuate what Hawaiians have always taught, and lived by.

This gets easier to say as, when moving abroad, I can come back home to the land of my youth, my birth, Hawaii, and easily see the change, the contrast between the old generation, and the new. The values held so dear yesterday, and the injustices condoned today.


The song holds true. What would the King do, if he saw what has become of Hawaii today? How much more would he feel if he saw how we as islanders treat each other, and ourselves.

ahhh, sorry, i have quite a few thoughts on the matter.

 

Imua!

 

i was born and raised in hawaii. kapiolani hospital. relax it was just one incident. happens every now and then. its not like youve ever cut anyone off. and you driving you accept the risk of someone banging you. so have some aloha and cut this racial ****. i really dont appreciate it. it really is uncalled for.

 

I am far from being racist. Did I single out any given race or ethnicity? If you dont appreciate it, tough...accept it.

Besides, shouldnt you be up in the mountains practicing for scca solo2 to fine tune your skills to you can beat the s2ks? Or shouldnt you be out on the street picking on 600cc bikes, afraid of the bigger bikes eh? Yeah buddy, you should be one to talk about accepting it. Guess we'll be seeing you up at Tantalus when you get back from Cali huh?

addmitance to guilt of whatever happend on H3? Nice!

What's up kettle? looking a little black?

You're missing the concept of this thread. I'm trying to single out one person to make him aware of he just did...and just maybe he could've thought of what dangers there were and consequences that could've been. Been seeing that a lot of the younger car enthusiasts wanting to exploit their cars to their advantage at an accelerating rate being that the old track is closed. being that you're from here, then you should be familiar with the local saying..."bumbai you learn" Why accept it when you can prevent it?

 

you really just go on forums to pick a fight huh? you did make a racial comment "your from the mainland". in my book and many others here that is totally uncalled for. idk why you bring up things from other forums. but well see at autoX now wont we. you wanna put some cash down im fkn game. i could use some gas money. and trust me i dont back down. people have told me i cant drive so i tell them come to the mountains. im there and they dont show up. trust me id rather drive turns. i feel more in touch with the car through corners rather than just stomping my foot down. ill be back on the 14th. that gives me 2 days to get used to the car again. but im not gonna make an excuse. id stills ay ill put down a better time than you. lets put some money on it. the h3 incident was cuz i ****ing hydroplaned. a bad driver would have been in the wall. one thing i have also noticed is that the "oG's" are quite over zealous of the younger drivers..

 

brah, speed up, dis not fawking Maui.

And now we try to type gramatically correct sentences to create the illusion that we are educated and informed of the dark inner workings of the children of todays' society and their "tuner" cars. Seriously, don't give me that crap about kids racing their cars because the track is closed. They wouldn't go to the track to race EVEN IF it was still open.

Get a life, those hackeneyed phrases from the lore of Hawaii's yesteryear don't even apply to what society has become today. If it REALLY bothered you, you could report it to the police that the car was speeding and swerving recklessly. Instead, you try to post here on an internet forum where half the people on here probably do the same crap every now and then. You expect to get any sympathy from them? Come on now.

 

QFT..I'll see you there too. What car are you bringing?

Btw, make sure to bring the signed waiver form from your parents. Don't forget!


Ahhhhhh, you won't forget.

 

WTF, seriously. This is why the Z community here in Hawaii sucks *** big time.

First off, people are just overreacting to some comments and spinning it to their past experiences.

Here's what went wrong.

636, you probably didn't mean any racial slur with "you mainlanders" but made the mistake to do so as others may have misinterpreted those statements. Personally, I didn't read any racial aftertones the first time I read the comment.

Josh, you know I'm cool with you and with everybody, but saying he was referring to caucasians in general with "mainlander" and being racially degrading is kind of... being racist also. You kind of pooled me into it... that all locals hate the haoles and look to point them out. Your comments could be spun off that way too. But bro, you know I'm cool. In fact, I was part of your fraternity for a very, very short time.

In the end, it's all a misinterpretation...

There is alot of hiprocrocity here so far. I suggest we stop this war of words and have a BBQ/meet... so we can patch up our differences and celebrate our similarities, like our passion for our cars.

 

look....i think we all know that Test Drive Unlimited taught us that the main land isnt the only place we can go 180+!!!!!!!!

 

chillax tampax.



And would writing any worse make things better? I was just making a point that it has been growing more that the track has closed. I never wrote that it has NEVER happend.

Maybe I'm just old school...but, bumbai you learn.

 

WTF is going on in this thread.

 

Solo2 and cone smashing was never my style, but I may try that on for size. Did that looooooooong ago back at Barbers point, till a friend introduced me to Formula Fords and Mirages for Solo1. I've always done well in Super Lap Series - Time Attack, enough to seize the second spot in championship points in my class. Oh well...sucked to be first loser. Maybe I'll see you there? If I hear people telling me that I'm a good driver, then I'll put up a wager.

This really reminds me of that time I called out that corvette guy out to our SuperLap events. I should of put money up for that, but no one told me I'm a good driver. Just needed to show him that you dont need TT to beat a corvette. But Mike Ward definetly took it for a grain of salt and beat the C5 Z06 with TT and other stuff. So I guess that point goes out the window.

 

dunno. just really sensitive people. I think I'm one of them.

 

and so it goes on and on anddddd ONNNNN....MY GOD DEAL WITH IT!

 

Can we all just get along?

 

I said i made a mistake in my wording. I know not all locals hate haoles. guess i was just very frustrated with some **** that happened this weekend invloving some locals. And i just got pissed off when i saw that. So i apoligize. and i know your cool, i think you know that i dont hate locals. obviously everyone i hang out with at meets is mostly a local.
