How about you sit down with a nice big cup of STFU

THK ... your missing an eye :rolleyes:

Quite frankly, this thread shows you all care more for flashy
objects and money and care nothing for those people killed
by idiots like dan speeding ... pathetic

I truly hope one day none of you are reminded of someone
special killed by a speeding joyrider like I am seeing this ...

..!..

Truly disgusting

    Christopher I completely agree with you. I remember arguing with a number of warriors a few years back when Cory Rudl died leaving a widow. Almost everyone thought what he did was worth it because he enjoyed. It didn't matter to them that Cory had a wife and other loved ones he left behind and who had to live with the consequences.

    I know this is a money making forum, but a lot of people here seem to advocate extreme self-indulgence, selfishness, irresponsbility, and for that matter, law breaking.

    If you don't want to hang out in the main forum, you could hang out here instead. At least, I like to think that the posters here are more mature and responsible.

    Christopher, how do you equate a comment in the thread to us approving of him speeding? You called him a joyrider, well sorry in British law he wasn't. A joyrider is someone who steals a car, and he didn't do that.

    If you want to take this to the nth degree my FIL was knocked down by a driver who wasn't speeding, does that mean all drivers who are middle age are dangerous?

    It is 2 years since I last drove, because I have no need of a car here in HK.

    A car is a car, and any car can kill, but again just because some of us made a comment, don't tar us with the same brush and make assumptions which you can't possibly justify.

    Bev, I am not sure whether you saw the original thread by the OP as he has changed it since. He admitted driving the car at 120 mph in a highway, which would have been way over any speed limit there. He said he was warned by the car owner about this.

    It is this statement that Christopher J and I were particularly worried about. I am not worried about the fact that he rented a performance but the way he drove it. There would have been no issue if he had just hired the car and did not admit to speeding in the first place.

      Doesn't this come under "beating a dead horse"?

      Though I agree with the comment about excessive speed - once your opinion is posted what else is there to do?

      Spending $4k to ride around for a week is not something many would do in the first place. Not surprising that would be a person who would feel the need to "see what it can do".

      Doesn't make it right - but what purpose is served by stating your point again and again? You can't un-ring a bell. If one rather juvenile post turns you against everyone here - that's your problem. This is a forum - not a court with judge and jury.

      Let it go.

    Derek, I did see the post where the person talked about driving at 120 mph. The problem is Christopher assumed that everyone who posted in the thread was approving of that, which wasn't the case.

    I didn't see that in the OP but in a post further along, but yes the OP did say he drove at 120 mph.

    My point is that Christopher said ALL which means everyone who posted only cared about flashy things, not that lives would be taken by idiots. That means everyone, no exceptions. He also called the OP a joyrider, which he wasn't. A joyrider is someone who steals a car.

    Christopher is leaving the forum, because as he sees it we don't care, and the place sucks. That is making claims which are not true. Now it is everybody who is at fault because we didn't all agree with Christopher, and post it.

      The issue would have been the same - only difference is you wouldn't have known about it.

      Doesn't matter - nothing said or posted now - no matter how large the font used - will change what has already been done. Expressing disapproval is fine - as is ignoring such a silly thread.

    You can't leave, you still owe me some pics of queensland mate

    It's been 13 years since I've last seen that beautiful place, and I want to try and find your house.

    One jerk around here doesn't rub off on everyone else around here. I'm living proof. I've been here for years, and there's still plenty of great people around here that I have not had a bad influence on.
