Some things never change. Don't you realize how much of a tool you come across as?

I know....you should see me when I miss my morning coffee! You guys need to lighten up, this is a car forum not life and death. To me, interacting is tongue and cheek and nothing more than innocuous entertainment and I mean no disrespect to anyone!

I'd check his IP man, I, as well as others think he's someone you banned already making his "return".

Nope, sorry to disappoint you my friend.

No need to flame me with ban images and threats. I understand the forum rules and will and have fallowed the rules ever since joining in December. I don't insult fellow members and I don't name call like so many of you in here.

God bless!

You say that as if its a bad thing. Yes, Toyota is the parent company for Lexus. Having that kind of backing as a car company is a GOOD thing. Keep in mind, Toyota is also the company that produced the MKIV Supra. It would be quite foolish on your part to attempt to bash the Toyota name brand.

Not to mention the AE86 perhaps the greatest Drift platform ever to e-brake on the streets and years of formula racing to name a few.

You're barking up the wrong tree I'm affraid in here. Unless it's a Vette, don't even bother!

I don't think you do or the whole board including the mods wouldn't have a problem with you....


You come off in a very negative way here, if you wanna make "friends" here you need to change your posting style. If you even care that is....

Last time I checked I wasn't posting regarding anything else but American cars and I have never once started nor responded to anything but American muscle based threads.

And just because someone doesn't always agree and stroke American cars doesn't mean we/us have attitude problems, it simply means we/us disagree. Kind of ironical really, people who support the United States and democracy and drive American cars have a problem with fellow members enacting their freedom of speech......what a shame!

No,this is freedom of crap talking.. Last time I checked comments like these and others you make on other threads are attitude driven. You talk of military training ??? I believe respect is thought there too, guess you were busy doing something else that day huh??

Clicking off a 11.85@121, on 20s with 4 doors is respectable to me. Especially on PS2s... The car is brand new on the scene, and this is just the tip of the iceberg. Theres plenty left in this car...

Referring to your other post.... The point of this thread is to show what the new Caddy is doing in street trim, with extremely basic mods.

You never seem to disappoint a crowd with your lack of knowledge.

Its pretty impressive. Got to take into account the conditions and 60ft and how much boost vs. stock he ran. Don't know if a 4300lb car will necessarily pick up 1mph per 10hp either.

I believe those cars were not production models and were driven by Cadillac/GM employees. I wouldn't be surprised if they were running ZR1-level boost since no other source has replicated that stock.

Is a drifting platform now considered a reputable source for race car engineering? Don't get me wrong, I owned an MKIV and respect Toyota's contributions and accomplishments, but drifting isn't a sport and the cars are not major accomplishments.
