did you just come out of a grammar school under a rock in the time of twitter and text and fb status why waste characters for punctuation your contribution to the thread makes me want to write run on sentences just to piss you off see see see

but seriously man, leave those critics if the man apply for a job in your company or something. if you have nothing on topic to say, then may I suggest saying nothing?

On topic: pcasso, you've got plenty of great cars that I have seen so I'm not sure why you let that guy tick you off really. The people that keep go on and on about muscle cars and all that just need to realize there will always be a faster car so do you always argue over which one is faster or find some other reasons to enjoy a car, especially the one that you have.

I give mad props to Toyota/Subaru not just because the twin are such great cars, but also for them being gutsy enough to tell Nissan and their GT-R that "hey bro, cool drag car, but we want to design a car where the driver matters, come check it out."

I agree man, its all about the driving experience!! This little car satisfies me in ways not even the wife can . I understand how they feel when they see a 200hp rwd scion but once you drive the 86 its addicting, i cant stop dreaming about her. You may not believe me but i think more about driving this car than i did my R-35!! Its a true drivers dream!! I guess people will never understand until they get behind the wheel of one.

I agree. Who cares if their car is faster than yours? Unless they own something like a Zonda (which most of these people don't) there is always going to be a car faster than theirs. This town is full of C63s, E63s, etc. but I don't care about what other people do as long as it doesn't endanger me.

funny you talk about wife. cause there will always be someone hotter ... lol i'll just leave it there.



i had some fun time dodging idiotic bullets from an M3 driver over the weekend too. At the end of the day, realizing he couldn't make a happy FRS driver and a S-2000 fanatic (my other friend) to , he tried to leave it with "German car is the way to go man". lol love the M3, tired tired tired of ignorant owners.

I watched that part several times. I am familiar with E92s, having owned two of them.

I am very confident any stock FR-S couldn't keep up with an E92 on any track.
He is a friend of mine, he let me pass because i was on his ass and he wanted to tail me. When he was tailing me he would stay on me on the straight aways but hesitated to pass since he knew i would be right on him again in the braking. Even though my cars brakes were getting worse the FR-S would out pace him in corner entry and exit speed. He said he let me pass to see if his car would go into corners at the same speed mine did, which it could not. Im guessing a lot has to do with the way i can turn in the FR-S and he cant do that with a heavier car. I owned a E90 M3 and took it to the same track so i know how weight places a huge roll in this specially since harris hill has very little straights its mostly corners where the fr-s has the advantage of being able to attack them at full speed and the M3 has to battle its weight specially on his stock tires and stock alignment. I dont think the FR-S is a faster car but i do think with a bit more power and technique high powered heavyweights may have some good competition from a light weight 4 banger.

My car is not stock in any terms btw i have pretty much everything that can be done as far as suspension wise and an intake and exhaust plus sticky tires, im just waiting on brakes. Now imagine what i could do with better brakes!!

Here are the car specs.

FR-S Specs:
-Suspension-
-Cusco Front & Rear Member Braces
-Cusco Adjustable Rear Control Arms
-Cusco Front & Rear Strut Bars
-Cusco Thicker Rear Sway Bar
-Perrin Sway Bar End Links
-KW V3 Coilovers
-Vorschlag Camber Plates

-Engine-
-TRD Filter
-Agency Power Catback

-Brakes-
-Stock System Fading pretty badly because of rubber lines and fluid.

-Wheels & Tires-
-Hankook RS3'S 245/40/17 On 17X8 Rpf1's

-Settings-
-36 PSI HOT
-410 Pounds Average Driver + Co-Pilot

E92 M3 Specs:
-ECU Reflash
-Stock PS2 Tires
-Driver + Co-Pilot Average 320 Pounds

I think the word you are looking for is red. If you're going to attack someone over little things, at least check your own posts.

lol BURNNNN! That hypocrite's mistake was actually much worse because, unlike the fb typos, I couldn't make sense of the beginning of his sentence.

Next we did a lead follow and i was constantly having to slow down so his high powered evo could catch up since the thing had so much lag after that he said he could have easily passed me, i told him to go ahead of me and i would follow him now trying to stay on his rear bumper....... Next thing you know he over speeds into a corner having massive understeer then he punches the gas and as soon as his turbo kicked in he was in the dirt. I just laughed and laughed and repeated the same lemma over and over "Straight lines are for fast cars, corners are for fast drivers" lol. ( This was in a c63 btw i was not in the fr-s.)
Hey at least you have a track semi close, Harris Hill is the closest track to me as well, about 2hrs.

Dude, you're reading it wrong because the grammar nazi's typo is so bad that it affected your interpretation. He really meant to say "red ink" as in the color red.

Nope i think Hawaiian is right, he meant to say Red ink as in highlight my errors and write what is wrong on my post and the douche didn't even spell that right lol. First he said proof reading which is actually proofreading, now this. I dont really care about grammar this is a car forum its what we are here to discuss but i hate douches.

Read Ink does not make sense, Red Ink does. Teachers use this method to correct students.
