Manxman Posted September 4, 2003 Posted September 4, 2003 Have any of you guys out there seen this.....? Scooby Basher 'ItStartsHere' is a Manx based Mitsu 3000GTO owner. I found this after following the link that Dave K posted earlier 200+ Club IOM Meet Thought i'd post this here first instead of General due to his location. What do you think comments????
heazille Posted September 4, 2003 Posted September 4, 2003 No Comment, other than watch this space Manxman, can u 'e' mail me direct on prouse@manx.net Thanks Richard Regional Organiser Isle of Man
Orcane Posted September 7, 2003 Posted September 7, 2003 From the replies you got from the GTOs I would say that the repliers are just as arrogant as the Scoobie drivers they are talking about. Your post was not confontational, and just pointed out not to use broad derogatory statetments to talk about all Scoobie owners. We dont all drive like loons and disrespect other road users. As like a normal SN discussion, it turned immediately to insults and 'my cars better/faster/cooler/more tuneble (delete as appropriate) than yours'. What a sad bunch of muppets they are. /sighs, clearly disappointed
CustomScoobyIOM Posted September 7, 2003 Posted September 7, 2003 True its very sad. Replied again enforcing the fact. And one guy goes on about getting 1000bhp out of a GTO?? Who cares? Engine sizes are different! Anyway ill stop having a go at them now.... Maybe
Boxer23 Posted September 7, 2003 Posted September 7, 2003 Well done to Jon for voicing some sensible points with those guys. It's not the cars but the drivers who deserve the bad rap. You're going to get silly drivers soing silly things in any cars. Let's make the SIDC a group that's respected by other car clubs/owner's group for have a good attitude towards motoring.
CustomScoobyIOM Posted September 8, 2003 Posted September 8, 2003 Theyve removed the thread. Thirded Neil
Kristan Posted September 19, 2003 Posted September 19, 2003 I know "ItStartsHere", I used to be friends with him, he's the guy with the thrashed black GTO with gold HKS stickers all over it. When he bought it, it needed more new bits than the titanic would to get it running right, as far as I know he's changed the clutch so he can thrash it some more. You'll notice it's still on UK plates too... Wonder when his UK tax runs out.... See the nice bumps on the front? All his own work too. Add it to the S14 he killed trying to drive off marine drive, the S13 with the knackered engine, the CRX he put in a tree, the Capri he snapped over the tram tracks, the Alfa with the knackered shocks (which he still drove)..... And he's 22 and can get insured on a GTO? Helps that daddy is rather high up in a certian bank over here! He knows Paul from Cybercraft quite well, going out with his daughter last time I heard, they attended JAE together this year in Pauls 300zx What was the thread about out of interest?
CustomScoobyIOM Posted September 19, 2003 Posted September 19, 2003 He was saying all Scooby drivers on the island drove like dickheads basically. That GTO is well raggy mate. It will never pass the Manx MOT like that! Apparantly tho it is pushing 400bhp......
Manxman Posted September 20, 2003 Author Posted September 20, 2003 << He was saying all Scooby drivers on the island drove like dickheads basically. >> By the sounds of what Kristan is saying he should be included in his own statement. I saw his car on the Prom last week, and your correct in what you saying its well raggy. Is he a Boy Bay member ?? Just because its got, possibly, 400bhp+ doesnt mean its quick other than in a straight line, if you catch my drift. Don't think I'd want him driving fast behind my car on our roads !
CustomScoobyIOM Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 Too true Manxman. 400bhp in a GTO that is 1991!! Gah you are asking for det!! And the way he drives he shouldnt drive at all. Braking on a corner at 120mph I was scared when I saw that! Fish tailing everywhere
Boxer23 Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 Doesn't matter what bhp is under the bonnet, if you drive like a dick you're going to get yourself or someone else hurt sooner or later. Those gold stickers must add an extra 300bhp. The car is a shed, falling to bits and sounds like det is only a few revs away.
Manxman Posted October 2, 2003 Author Posted October 2, 2003 Surely its easier to ask Jon what forums he DOESN'T post on
CustomScoobyIOM Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 LOL @ Manxman!!! Me I use Benzworld, GTOUK.com and a few others.
Kristan Posted October 3, 2003 Posted October 3, 2003 I've always found gtr.co.uk rather good, plus of course the FTO list! But I might be a bit biased in that respect!
