i was going at it with im, pretty much talking over him, and i could tell he was making more concessions than he really wanted to, and then i heard a click and i could tell i was off the air and he'd gone to the next guy. What happens is that you get the radio coming through on the phone, like 10-15 seconds ahead of the normal radio (for swearing etc) and you'll get a guy asking what you want to talk about... i just said that Skyline and their drivers were being mis-represented by the ppl who had already called in...
anyways spoke my mind, felt like i got some of my points across, needed more time tho... a little nervous too... never done anything like that before... for those that missed it, basically i said.
- stupid to jump the conclusion that Skyline's are 'death traps'
- said that Skyline's comparitively were safer cars than a Commodore of Falcon, said that if you compare the mentioned cars on the year they were made, Skylines had ABS, traction control, air bags, way before the local cars, not to mention better brakes and suspension.
- said that i'd feel a lot safer in a Skyline than a crappy little excel or lancer.
- also said that what was this magical thing that happens the day you get your full license that means you can drive a hi-po car? It's about education and that any nutter behind any car can speed, and have a bad crash.
it was bout the time i made my 'next day, full license' comment that he went back to his 'radio audience'
i hope i didn't sound like a complete fool. Anyone hear me on the radio?
cheers
