The problem that I have with alot of these guys is not thier car, but the way they think. At the end of the day no matter how I feel it's thier car & it's up to them how to mod it. Now the trying to argue with me that thier set up is superior to mine with out having any idea of what they are talking about is simply annoying & it seems to happen more often than it should. I don't usually make bad comments on others cars unless they ask for it by talking shit or going overboard with negative comments on my cars which I seem to get alot from the drift guys. So all in all it's not the car or the trend, but the fools who follow such trends without knowing why & want to act like asses that make things a problem.

That's when I get annoyed.
I find it annoying when these dori boyz argue that running stretch is BETTER PERFORMANCE - BULLSHIT.
Get the picture?

Yup, that's the biggest blood boiler for me regarding this subject too. These little fan boi fad followers who think that tires that don't fit, japtrash aero scraping the gnd, ziptied body parts, and suspensions tha don't move are all the ways of the future and they're on the cutting edge trying to push thier view on everyone else. I hate it.

I love when I call them all out on it and ask them to come to a track with a timer and all of a sudden the subject changes.

To have a good conversation over opinions, you are going to have some disagreement. If you believe that your opinion trumps all others, you need to keep in mind that everyone feels that way, and wars are started over such thinking. As another man once said, "Can't we all get along?".
I'm of the thought that my opinion trumps all others when it's been PROVEN to be more than an opinion.... things like a 255/40/17 mounted on a 17x9 will give you more traction that an 195/40/17 mounted on a 17x12..... that's pretty common knowledge as far as I'm concerned yet they keep on rolling with thier whack ass setups being better for performance.

once again, speaking the truth, preaching to the choir for some, and to others, it's landing on deaf ears.
