rb20inside

should be easy to get a rwc cos its standard and in mint condition.

good thread big rizza! are we seeing a common patern here? obviously the under $7500 issue attracts them to these vehicles with the majority of bogans in the lower socioeconomic bracket. however even the ones with a job and can afford a more exspensive car (dickhead at the track, VX SS commo) act like tools. looks like they can bust out of their economic bracket but not out of their social bracket. have you spoken to bolger? if not, have a chat to him and then tell me what you personally think!

he had had a warning on one his previous attempts. have you been to a drift event? the cars line up and go two at a time. there is two barriers at the start and two at the end. he was powersliding past the end markers up to where the cars were lining up at the start. where he spun near the wall probably missed the last cars by 25m but it could have been alot worse and he definitely wasn't in control.

still got the head? where are you located?

i dont think its just 'the swich' that has the problem cos i've also been cruising at the gold and sunshine coasts and in newcastle (my mate in commo) and the problem exists there. eg. at the broadwater carpark at the goldie the only ones to do burnouts are the commo drivers. also anyone who has been to a racetrack knows that it isnt only people from the town that go but drivers from a large catchment area. the dickhead driver of the commodore, although possible, was more than likely not from ipswich. rezz i read that thread bout the commos in the drift events . bolger is a deadset f#*kwit. like i said, anyone who has met the fag will know what i mean. if you're ever in the area, come to 'the swich' and see what i mean. there is an unusualy high concentration of f#*kwits in commos. just watch out for being arse raped by a bogan in a commonwhore (sorry r32skyline_89)

this is turning into a sh!tfight and it was never meant to be although in hindsight i guess it was inevitable. its rather like the ever occuring sr vs ca battles. instead this is commo drivers vs import drivers. obviously dickheads drive all sorts of cars. but what intrigues me is why so many dickheads seem to drive commodores and so many commodores seem to have dickheads behind the wheel!

yes i spose as with everything, the minority spoil it for the majority. i just couldn't get over it at the track that the only cars that did skids in the pits, drifted past the markers, came flying into the line-ups were the three commodores... coicidence. does the dickhead come first and attracted to a commodore or is a dickhead a result of a commodore? i've been reading another tread on this forum that i didn't see. it is on a similar subject but more topical. some really funny sh!t: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=92087

yes, i am conscious of generalisation, and i hoped, although it seems i wasn't successful, to be rational and unbiased. i agree the commodore is a comfortable family/business car. my olds own an AU falcon and its is an extremely comfortable and reliable car as is the commodore i occationally drive at work. however when i drive them i do not think they are a performance vehicle. i drive them as they are, a family/business car. you use the vehicle for work and i'm sure you drive it in a professional manner, not attempting to race every import you pass. in starting this topic i was just attempting to get some others thoughts on why this stereotype exists. i also do not want a sh!tfight and thankyou for your thoughts on the topic.

yer that sounds just like the attitude. its seems it occurs all over the country. is it in their blood or upbringing....or in the cars themselves. i just remembered a friend of mine that drives an old pulsar. he is normally a champ and a close friend. he had a lend of one of his mates vl commo. he took me for a drive and turned into a complete 'hard-nut' tosser. one thing that pisses me off is that the cops would rather pull me over an go over my clean, well maintaned 180 but let a smoke spewing, rust bucket, death trap drive past.

rofl. yer thats one way, and probably the funniest way, of puting it. yer they do sound somewhat like that.

bugger it i'll just write a book. i have heaps of thoughts in my head which i tried to get down as briefly as possible. it is quite probable that it wouldn't make sence. please query and challenge my ramblings. i just want to start and participate in some threads with a bit of thought etc, not just "sr's are better cos they make my dick look bigger!"

a very rational an unbiased opinion scorp32. i too respect any "well-maintained, tastefully modded car regardless of it's make or model". perhaps i came ascross the wrong way. i have friends that drive commodores. i just have a problem with the drivers that think their V6 (or even V8 although less so) is a V8 Supercar when in reality its a family car! milk and juice may come in two litres but only cheap wine comes in 5. The road is not a racetrack (although i must admit to some late night industrial estate antics). that commodore driver was at least i the racetrack i guess, but he still couldn't obey the rules there. biased as i may be i have to say no import driver drove dangerously up to the line up. sorry it was heaps long savage_bliss. Should have put under the topic "get a drink and get comfortable". so its in their genes/blood hey? good to see you've been converted!! long shot but anyone keen to cruise to "the swich"......sometime?

offers...

umm... search. i use a rb25 neo turbo atm. it made big improvement from stock. generally a rb25 turbo is a good budget upgrade as everyone will tell you. a question for you. how does you haltech go? what was it worth?

What is the deal with commodore drivers? Are they born dickheads or do they get brought up to be one? Is it a blood/ genes thing or a social background thing? I’m just try ing to understand where they get their attitudes from. On Saturday I went to the drift day at Queensland Raceway. Although bloody hot in the sun, made worse by the non-existence of shade, it was a great day with some good action . Among the imports, there were three commodore entrants, a VX SS, a VS or VT Ute (can’t remember which) and a VR V6. Now no-one told them to be wankers, no-one expected them to be f#*kwits (well….) and no-one certainly gave them permission to be dickheads, but they were. However, all the drivers of the import cars didn't feel the need to emulate this behaviour. All three underpowered and in one case open wheeled ‘commonwhore’ entrants attempted to show off to their “metallica-mullet’ mates in the crowd. This included drifting (more sort of powersliding) past the ‘no drift zone barriers’ down the straight. I think number two rule for drifting, after ‘wear a helmet’, is don’t drift past the markers. The climax was after two or three attempts to get a cheer from the crowd resulting in spinouts, the red SS spun out again and was inches away from crushing his rear into the wall and the other cars lining up. Steve (don’t know his last name, help me out here, drives a blue s13 silvia, now onevia, that used to have a big streeter sticker down the side), a regular official but this day an entrant, got out of his car and, very politely I’m sure, told him to ‘f#*k off!!’. Officials came from everywhere but the driver of the commodore refused to be chucked out (there’s the attitude again). My mates’ dad (manager of the racetrack) had to be called in from his day off to throw the wanker out (Keith reckoned it was fun though because the guy was a tool ). I was leaning on the wall just in front of all the action and coincidently next to some of the metallica-mullet/jock mates of the driver. The dickheads were like, ‘what the f#*k? Dickhead (substituted) is getting chucked out! I don’t know why, he didn’t do anything!” I’m thinking, “Were you watching? Or were you out the back pulling each others dicks? he nearly wrote his car off! <_< ” But there you go it seems it’s not just the drivers it’s their wannabe driver mates (wannabe a wannabe? Hmmm…). The king of all commodore f#*kwits would have to be Robbie Bulger. If you've met the guy you would have to agree. I mean the bloke has an attitude problem. I haven’t spoken to one import driver at the track that remotely likes him. I have respect for his 1000hp ute but he’s a deadset wanker. This proves you don’t have to be an ‘aussie bogan’ to be a ‘commonwhore wanker’ because an Irish (or whatever) f#*kwit is too. My mate says my outlook is of pure hatred, which may be so, but I do try not to be irrational and therefore blinded. I hail from Ipswich (‘the swich’) B) . Yeah take a monent to laugh and pay me out (Queenslanders will know what i mean), but I like it and I’m content. What we do have is a racetrack and a town centre very sweet for lapping. Occasionally, we venture into town to do some ‘phat laps’ and listen to some 'phat beats' (mostly parking and watching than driving and yelling out). There is an occasional r32, r33, 180sx, silvia, wrx, etc (getting more and more all the time but the problem being I can count and remember all the imports ie. there's bugger all) but predominately there is ‘commonwhore’ dickheads and falcon chariots. The number of commo drivers that try to race me cos I drive an import is ridiculous. I drive a 180 with an rb20 (cool a couple of years ago when I bought it). It is nothing special just an exhaust, intercooler, rb25 turbo, but it's certainly fast enough to dispose of every chariot thus far (touch wood), but they keep coming back thinking they’re cool. An odd one is the drivers of the VL turbo commodore, of which there are a few clean examples in “the swich”. These drivers have somewhat been converted and utilise the powerful rb30det engine, with some even opting for the twin cam head from an rb25 or similar. However their attitude remains the same as their heritage (or donor car), tools, wankers…whatever . This paragraph will be almost completely off topic from the rest of my ramblings. I remember the days (sound like my dad), pre-license, when we’d go into town and watch the “lappers.” I loved it and have to say it was pretty huge! Not just huge for “the swich” but genuinely huge . People would come from Brisbane, Beaudesert, and even the Gold Coast. Just a proposition and I may (and probably will) get owned for suggesting this . I’d like to extend an invitation to all Southeast Queensland (and interstate if you feel strogly enough) import drivers to an old school cruise to “the swich” (don’t hurt me… ). Obviously if there is any interest we’ll organise it on another thread and via ‘pm’ to avoid handing out invites to the ‘po-po’. I just want to own the commo chariots fags and put them in their place. I don’t mean bring “ull’bees” and flog the sh#t out of them but just out number them and say “we don’t rate you so don’t even try.” I’m just sick the dirty looks, of having my car undergo roadside inspections, etc and get blamed on ‘a current affair’ etc for the actions and attitudes of the ‘commonwhore’ wankers . Sorry to write so much but I was just wondering if anyone else is of the same opinion or am I alone on this point and the one with the problem? Where do you stand? Are you a commo wanker?
