I know that I'm probably right. I know the kind of people who buy and mod these cars. There are currently at least 8 (that I know of) rocket bunny twins in my area.

"I want to mod my car to be unique" is something none of them have ever heard of. But they're also the people who would rather sit in a parking lot and circle jerk instead of going for a drive with no destination.

Yeah its really sad that this is what the car community is coming to. People always ask me why I don't have a RB and its cuz my car isn't for show its to drive and enjoy. RB is a waste of time and money

Do it because you want to do it, and make the content YOU want.


Me? I'd love to see you crash the car. But you probably wont do that

The whole car community is crashing down because of RB? How am I missing seeing that?
I would have guessed it was the whole "Turbo power brah" crowd myself.
I am amazed you didn't find an angle to say "Oh I am turboed" in this thread yet. Oh wait...
Carbon fiber hood, roof and truck isn't just as bad as RB?
Did you really bloody say that somebody buying something for their car is a "waste of time and money"? YOU said that?

For Christ sake the OP just was just excited and wanted to help the community and all of a sudden he is a RB loving, money wasting, posing hard parker?
He wasn't a **** or entitled douche (they seem to be ok with people and nobody says shit to them) and this crap is uncalled for.

Good point haha. In my local car community there is a lot more people that are all about stance and cosmetics then cars or performance and it makes me feel sour towards it all now TBH.

And car mods are a waste of money lol! I could have put a good down payment on a house for what I spent

Go, why would you feel sad about it? It's THEIR thing and if it makes them happy, so be it.

I personally would never do a RB/wide tire mod but I do think they look cool.

I just have different goals and I'm 100% positive many would think they're stupid. I don't care because it will make me smile.

Yeah each to their own. Everyone has the right to spend their money how they like, I just wish there was more like minded people locally for me

There probably are plenty. You have said many times you don't do meets and don't hang out with people so you can't complain that there are not more when you don't even know.

I've driven 3 hours to the track, spent 2 hours on track, then spent 3 hours driving home in a single day.

Your excuse sucks.

It was totally worth it as I can confidently say I've been on the largest roadcourse in North America at ~4.6 miles.

Edit: OP should totally go to that track, he lives closer to it than I do.

Pro tip: I'm not the person who has a chip on my shoulder and gets mad when someone doesn't like my car.

I fail to see how he can bring anything new to the table. If he wants to help out the community, post some good original content here first. Another pro tip for you: dude has no original content, hence him asking if it's a good idea here.
