Default mike 'bitter and twisted' rainbird

being a newcomer to this rather 'manly' sport (yes a woman speaks) i am shocked to find that there seems to be a shortage of actual men...the term 'boys' and 'pathetic' spring to mind when i read the personal accounts of sundays track day. There are always times when your car is not ready, or you havent been invited to the 'ball', however this is not good reason for acting your shoe size!

GET OVER IT

Mike, are you truly homophobic? because i know a good councilor, who could unlock those skeletons in your closet, which im sure you do have. Nowadays there are some excellent self-help procedures that could diminish your outrageous and blatant jealousy over steve scott, we are not in the school yard anymore boys.

I have known Steve for many MANY years, and for you to say that you wont be able to look at him in the same way, is probably true, a joke even, as you probably wont be able to look at him at all...with two black eyes.

so can i conclude, or may i suggest... maybe you should stay out of his way for a while.

...or better still, keep your mouth shut and give us all a break

to all you other avid readers. MERRY CHRISTMAS.

i have to say that there are a few changed attitudes in this post because of events in this year , one i have noticed is rods, since the 'ooooww 200mph' run you seam to have adopted this 'high and mighty' attitude. i used to think you were just a normal geezer the same as all other petrol heads , now the jurys back out .

mike, you , from what ive read used to be someone who got out there and did things 1st off before alot of others , now , sit back and watch the crowd ??

these are only my assumptions from the internet as i dont know any of these personally , so please dont take offence geezers

steve scott, well is just steve scott , mr reliable from all accounts , used to keep and eye on your progress in the rally scene - get back into it FULL ON !! you cars produce the goods ! im all for a laugh on these thrash events but rallying is rallying !!!

Well said Crazychris

There's been so many negative remarks about this thrash, like there was about TOTB, and the performance of the cars taking part.

What all you gob shites out there sat behind your big ' hard as fuck' keyboards don't realise is that some of us put a lot of time and effort, and money and the odd divorce into trying to get these cars at these events, and trying to realise a dream, which is certainly my case.

How much does it cost all the pricks who never took part? Fuck all and lots of it

For me, yesterday cost me an engine, and Ł8 an hour isn't gonna get that fixed in a hurry. I'm still paying for TOTB

Anyone can talk the talk, you lot just need to walk the walk; pricks.

Respect to Steve, never lets anyone down at these do's

Big thanks to Mike R for coming and saying hello to his team at Elvington, not.


Big thank you to PFDave and the other boys for letting me try to take part yesterday.

Dont think anyone ever gonna knock what your car DID achieve (and i mean as in PROVEN not, not gonna do it again )

But i feel these events are better for REAL road cars, as is i would race your car over the quarter with whatever preperation u like to give it and mine will just be driven in off the road how i drive it EVERY day
now u can say mine only run a lowly timed 11.5 (matched on more than one occasion, infact nearly every day i run it last year) but that wasnt this year when i havent actually run it once and it IS faster this year and feel pretty confident it will run a ten the first time i do (oh said it now lol )

How often do you get to really give your car all it got compared to mine on the road.

Basically (sorry Rod didnt mean it to turn into a slatting of you or what you enjoy) but think for the readers of a mag accelleration figures that can be attained day in day out are more representative

Personally wouldnt have minded an invite myself but didnt get to hear about it till late Friday and already had personal plans for that day (but my son will always take first place over that lump of metal called a car )

As for Steve Scott I know he's my "chosen tuner" but hey if u run a mag wouldnt u want to invite someone that is GAURANTEED to give 150% to the day AND everyone there, oh and supply a reasonable car to feature

I been to a PF thrash b4 and remember it as a blinding day out, car wernt 100% but still give it a go, couple of "moments" (Dannys air filter and Steve and a jet car ) and just a fun day with a bit of friendly competition

Only comment id make to Ben and Nick to make it a better day is try and make it just a tad earlier in the year, maybe for a bit better weather, it always fookin freezin at Brunters lol

Steve

(waiting to be shot down for being anti top speed lol )

I remember that one well!! its thanks to steve my car was able to drive home


anyway I'm glad my car is no longer in use as it keeps me out of all this bullshit from people that dont get invited these are funs days for few cars not a big shoot out to claim king, 90% of you reading this can't even manage to have a car ready for TOTB qualifying or the actual event so how is PFben supposed to say right 3weeks wednesday(example) brunters 9am, you'd be fuck car dont work

Exactly, which is why I was surprised at Ben's assumption that I wouldn't be interested . The simple fact of the matter was I wasn't invited .

Mike, are you truly homophobic? because i know a good councilor, who could unlock those skeletons in your closet, which im sure you do have.

CRAZY CHRIS
Absolutely PISSING myself at the above and Pete's comments . The words "head", "straight" "your" and "over" spring to mind . I am taking the piss , I even phoned Steve as he was on his way home from Brunters and TOLD him I had put a post on the BB taking the piss out of him always being there, so he knows I am mucking around with him . Can't believe you all take yourselves (and me) so seriously . Sorry, I didn't mean for you to think I was seriously insulting your boyfriend, as Steve and I just take the piss out of each other .

I'm sure that if Steve is seriously upset with me, he would tell me, as I speak to him on a regular basis (we have a special relationship as well ). I suggest you get a sense of humour, as Steve was laughing and calling me a tosser on the phone when I told him what I had put . If he has now taken it seriously due to you trying to make out that I am being serious, then that is even funnier .

How often do you get to really give your car all it got compared to mine on the road.

Basically (sorry Rod didnt mean it to turn into a slatting of you or what you enjoy) but think for the readers of a mag accelleration figures that can be attained day in day out are more representative

Personally wouldnt have minded an invite myself but didnt get to hear about it till late Friday and already had personal plans for that day (but my son will always take first place over that lump of metal called a car )

As for Steve Scott I know he's my "chosen tuner" but hey if u run a mag wouldnt u want to invite someone that is GAURANTEED to give 150% to the day AND everyone there, oh and supply a reasonable car to feature

I been to a PF thrash b4 and remember it as a blinding day out, car wernt 100% but still give it a go, couple of "moments" (Dannys air filter and Steve and a jet car ) and just a fun day with a bit of friendly competition

Only comment id make to Ben and Nick to make it a better day is try and make it just a tad earlier in the year, maybe for a bit better weather, it always fookin freezin at Brunters lol

(waiting to be shot down for being anti top speed lol )

Whats that all about mate, its lost me, mine is one of the few cars that actually drive to the event & its used on the daily commute to work.
The car has all its Power in the car to be used when & if. Yes a 750bhp road car, soon to Top 800, why not ask Yum how fast i drive on the road so please dont make comments on what you assume is facts.
Im confused about the 11.5 qtr statement , mine did a crappy 11.54 on the day of the Topspeed on obviously stupid gearing. Have no idea what your car is capable of mate & dont really care. I thought your car was 4X4 so not comparable over Qtr mile.

That reminds me Rod, did Lee pass my regards across to you?
Nah!! He was too busy burning the sausages on the barbie.
His toes were still twinkling though, just waiting for that next 0-60 dash.

Sorry Rod
Not doubting how fast you drive on the road
Not doubting what your car capable of

JUST disapointed u never run it at the shoot out at 90%, what im trying to say is when i buy my copy of PF it would have been nice to read about your car and what it did at "just 90%", as i recon most of the other readers would have liked to see also.

Dont think anybody expects that everytime u take the car to some sort of feature it will hit 200mph, as u yourself has said that sort of thing takes alot of time and effort to make sure everything working 110%.

Personally got nothing but respect for u and your car

rapid if rod had run at 90 % and it only did 190 mph etc everyone would habe dissed him and mark as 1 day wounders and it was only a 1 off after all etc etc
people gauge others cars/tuners on their performance and figures
if u only give 1/2 hearted figures it looks bad on all concerned imo
