So, today I met Ralph Gilles!
He was giving a lecture at my University today, so the entire Auto Club and I decided to go! I was truly amazed by his presentation, and most of all, his personality. I have never met somebody of his stature that was so down to earth and so enthusiastic about cars. He's definitely a real enthusiast and not just about the Profits. After the lecture, the Auto Club and I got to go up to talk to him, so of course, I asked him about the BRZ/FRS. His Response? "I LOVE the BRZ/FRS! I WISH we had a platform like that!" I was so happy when he said that, so I followed up with "Is Chrysler/SRT working on something in that area?" and he responded by saying that Fiat Group's partnership with Mazda definitely has a new Miata in the pipelines. Which totally made me MORE EXCITED!!! All in all, it was an awesome event, and my opinion of Chrysler has gone up massively. Afterwards we went to his car, which was a SRT Grand Cherokee, and shouted at him to do a burnout, which he didn't do... ![]() Def. a day to remember!

![]() It happens.. lol.. I have a feeling if I didn't personally know most of the mods on clubwrx I'd have been permanently banned. As it turns out, I'm liked a little more than the mod that tried to boot me so I got to play with the cool kids again. |

ichitaka05 do you have an fr-s/br-z? Your info thing confuses me because I see you saying that you're going to buy stuff for a gt86 but you drive a 2.5 RS....apparently....idk....
On that note it annoys me when stuff like that isn't up to date...

a fight? lol.. no. A discussion on the finer points of HID in non-HID reflectors and why retrofits are safer. I was actually after getting the correct info to another member but since he kept interjecting his terribly incorrect information I felt it necessary to embarrass him. It worked.. and I got banned.
In order to understand the situation though, the guy is always like that. Prove him wrong even in the most polite way and he gets pissy, takes his ball and goes home. Just like that little snotty kid from down the street. Except he has banning powers lol.. its sad really. |
