Stew Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I'm not a hypocrite and don't appreciate being called one. Also what was I preaching exactly? I don't know you, I don't know how you drive. I merely read what you wrote and based my opinion on your words. I also requoted you saying what would a judge, jury and the public think if that statement was read in court????? I'm sure they'd jump to the same conclusions that I did. That you drive like a muppet. These people wouldn't know you either or know how you drive. If I misinterpreted your post I apologise for that however my reply was based purely on what you had written. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 sigh i think your missing the point no one cares how good you are, or how you drive or how anyone else drives to be honest. the point we're trying to make is just don't post it up people react the high and mighty route to deter people from posting it on here, to show outside viewers we are a respectable forum who do not encourage or condone that behaviour. its a method of self forum moderation that is all, not a personal dig or a question of skills, just self moderation that happens to work well.

captain Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I've seen the vid, and I must say, I'm not sure what the fuss is about +1 ish Although I would imagine that speed limits were broken and possible "driving without due care and attention" could be cited. Not criticising, as the video and cars looked great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husky Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I've seen the vid, and I must say, I'm not sure what the fuss is about I saw it just before setting off on a 3 hour drive. In that 3 hour drive down the motorway I saw 5 situations I can think of off the top of my head of people driving more dangerously than in the video. I'm not saying I condone it but it certainly isn't one of the worst "drive out" videos out there. Also I guess it's worth people remembering it's a teeny tiny bit easier for these two cars to lift the rear tyres off the tarmac intentional or not than a standard 350.

How am I missing the point? I have already stated that I agree with you. The statement I am making is that I cannot stand people complaining about others driving 'over the limit' on the road when they themselves do it also. That has nothing to do with your point which, just in case you need me to say one more time - I totally agree with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit that I was so utterly incensed by the first couple of sentences I did not read the entirety of your post. Yes you utterly misinterpreted my post, but it's hard to describe ones driving habits in a single sentence after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ffs will you for the love of God re-read the thread and original comments....no one was that arsed about the driving.....just the fact it was posted up. Whoever reported the video (and no it wasnt me.....is rather have the entertainment of the aftermath) did so because it could of got Dj in trouble. For example.......youve clearly laid your colours down as a road warrior ......maybe the next time you ask Chris knott for a quote they might read this thread.....

Ekona Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 This thread is truly epic. I won't post up the obvious, but I will say that for someone who says they won't lose a single second of sleep over what anyone says on an interweb forum, there's been an awful lot of argumentative replies from said person Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
