Grant Member 453 Member For: 22y 6m 7d Location: Kurrajong, Sydney Posted 23/01/03 11:20 PM Share Posted 23/01/03 11:20 PM Pulled up at the lights on Old Windsor Road near Parklea last night where a young guy pulled up in a commy ute and admired my lovely lady. Wound down the window and he gave me the thumbs up, asked how it went etc. We the n agreed to a friendly which was all well and good. Just before the lights turn green I see Acid Rush turn onto our road and the red flash of a turbo badge. The lights went green and I smoked our young ute driver while catching up to Mr Acid Rush. Pulled around in front of him and gave a little wave (first time I've actually travelled next to another 6T) and at the next set of lights he pulls into the right hand turning lane. I wind down my window expecting to share the joy of owning a turbo with this guy and he stonewalls me! Doesn't even look my way. I was so pissed that I could enjoy having a nice car with a Expensive Daewoo driver and then meet a toss driving a 6T who wouldn't even look over and give a smile. What is up with that? :cussing: Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/718-very-disappointed/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

XR8Chic vrooom psshhht Member 340 Member For: 22y 7m 22d Gender: Female Location: Victoria Posted 27/01/03 03:26 AM Share Posted 27/01/03 03:26 AM Some people get like that. Just dont let them get to you.I get people calling out to me when I am driving a bit. I ignore some of it (like the calls of "get a real car", or "hey look - its a girl driving that car"). I had someone contact me through my website saying they had given me a run on the M4 and my car was so slow.. I had to ask what they were on about... cos I dont street race. Apparently I looked at there car, and they took that as a sign I was going to run them.

Guest Vette-427 Guests Posted 27/01/03 06:37 AM Share Posted 27/01/03 06:37 AM You have to remember some people have these cars as company cars and couldnt care less about them. They dont have any enthusiam for them, like you do. I get the same thing when I pull up next to HSV drivers, when I see their wearing a suit and tie I dont bother.

Guest Phantom Guests Posted 27/01/03 08:30 AM Share Posted 27/01/03 08:30 AM That's huge CJ.According to all reports so far a standard XR6T may get close to the XR8 but with an extra 40 KW it is bye bye baby.Given the extra weight of the 300 KW GT you should give that a run for its money.How much was the pipe?

Roughly $2700. Just cant wait till Herrod's announces his mods. Damn now that will be IMPRESSIVE!
