Knobs In Magnas

[spartacus77]

dunno if its just me but every twat with a vrx or ralliart magna wants a run? its getting worse as well, i know skylines arent everyones cup of tea but give me a break!!! even my gm buddies agree stop wasting our petrol ffs

[NORBY]

Haha. As an ex magna owner I can say there's a lot of wankers around. I had a 100% stock looking one that made 190.3kw at the front wheels and it was the fastest non turbo one in Australia. I always had other owners try and go me and I would just laugh at them

if magnas were rear wheel drive they wouldve been on equal terms with holden and ford.... including the owners.

Actually, if mitsubishi had gone down the rear wheel drive path, they would still be in production

[Howaitonaito]

^agreed. I get VR/S/T/X commodore owners starting on me. I did take him on once and backed off halfway through because around the corner was the popo (I got flashed but old mate didn't see or care) and and he got done

I tend to find that people in audis and beemas want to give me a run. I mostly ignore douchebags. I'm also in a sedan and do have a babyseat in the back.

I don't seem to get anyone hitting me up for a run @ the lights lucky you

My only encounter has been with a guy who works at the same shopping center as me in an Evo 9 who wanted to have a go LOL surprisingly he didin't pull much on me until it was time to back off due to the 80kph speed limit even he was surprised

[Yo-Yo]

^ evos need to stretch their legs a bit before they start picking up speed so not really surprised

I mostly get thumbs ups in the V can't remember the last time anyone tried to g me up,

just ignore 'em not worth it

[Seano350GT]

I cop it all the time, usually off the inbreds in old shitbox commy's.

Lately i've noticed that a few BA/BF falcon drivers on their P's try racing me too. I reckon my car is one of the fastest P plate legal cars on the market, aside from the SV6 commonwhores put out 210kw. I beat anyone with a p plate just about now lol.

Edit: Also HEAPS of bogans in landcruiser utes and hiluxes try racing me, i just don't even bother and pretend not to notice them..

not many people over here know what a v series is. i get a lot of questions about what it is especially cos it has no badges. no one is expecting the whistling turbo either but they get the message when it hits 3000+rpm gotta plumb that bloody screamer pipe back in lol

[Seano350GT]

Yep same here, only 2 V35's in Mackay and the other one is off the road because he lost his licence.

[t5iv]

Hiluxes are the shiz bro!

[The Max]

I do get my share of people trying to get me going. Sometimes I'll entertain them but if I see P-plates, then I'm just a slow old man. Inexperienced drivers are not to be encouraged in an activity they know little about yet.

What annoys me is if i beat someone they either get angry and tail gate me or will keep trying over and over..

I've been on my P's for longer than normal, lost it for 6 months last year so i've had them for 4 years now.. I consider myself an experienced-ish driver but i do understand what you mean with the d*ckheads that just get their P's and try to race everyone.

[SMOKEYV35]

i like 'spirited acceleration without loss of traction' - but i don't race anyone. it's far too easy for things to get over 30km'h above speed limit - and then i lose my car, my license, and most likely my job without a way to get there anymore.

yes - victoria is a nanny state, it's out of control - but the rules are the rules and i don't see any point in testing them.

[spartacus77]

a magna driver let me go before him at a servo cos only one pump had 98ron so i guess there is one out there with good taste. he must like the v from the rear or was it me?

nah def the car lol
