" Then the minute somebody says something that you did know you will call them condescending?"

I'm sorry what? I have done nothing of the sort.
I've been thankful for the actual help I've been given, unlike the personal attacks on what I've put up.

Honestly go away if you don't even want to have a decent conversation, if I was vague, you could have just responded with, "Hey, you aren't being very specific with what you want with this topic, care to elaborate on X?"

I tried being polite in the intro, and then I got all the lovely responses, and I saw the direction the conversation was gravitating towards.

I tried, but I feel I've been demonized to the point of no recovery.

Yeah, if I happen to end up on my roof in your extreme situation I'll be in a jam, but you're assuming what I'm doing on the track, which I'm just into doing lap times, and maybe some cone drifting.

Disregarding the lambo door all together, I've gained nothing of value looking for help here.


Thanks for at least semi-trying to help.

PS: any of you other people read this, try asking a guy his positions before assuming his whole life story, and personality. It may help promote a conversation, god forbid.

Like Mav said you need to settle on what you want. Straight line performance? Track monster? Instagram Queen hard parker? Tastefully cosmetically modded daily driver? Nothing wrong with any of those things if that is what you want but you can't have them all.

Read the sub forums for each category you are thinking of It is all there already. When you have read through them and have some real questions then read through them again. Once you have answered your own basic questions and need specific info THEN ask in the appropriate existing threads. Asking vague open ended questions is just going to get you vague open ended replies and so many conflicting answers you will be more confused when done than when you started.
Oh, and you better start thinking of a budget since to do all that stuff right you are going to need about the price of the car all over again.



Isn't asking for more specific info exactly what I said?


You were warned about the hazards of lambo doors yet your response is disbelief and snarky "you don't know me" rhetoric so the whole "I just want to learn" thing goes out the window if you only want to hear what supports your ideas.




The conversation was not gravitating in any direction except what you made it in your head. Are you so angry you read everything written as angry?


I have read all the posts three times now and see no personal attacks just you lashing out at everybody because you don't like the advice they gave you even though you asked them for it.
