What Do You Call Them

[jrocket]

Hi just wondering what most of you guys call people that hate 4 & 6 cyl turbo cars. I am talking about those V8 people that have only one view with that being V8's. I personally have a appreciation for all types of cars but I don't diss others for their choice of car and engine. I just simply say that its not really my type of car. A guy at my work is like a V8 nut and calls ne thing less a POS. I like to call him a redneck hick. what do u call them?

[Mr. Oizo]

closed minded.

[GTR32GUS]

I call him Goz , he is one of my "mates"

[lingeringsoul]

well I guess a man with a V10 or V12 will call your mates car a POS as well, tell him that and see him explode

[jrocket]

Haha. yeah will have to try that. The fag, i mean person i work with thinks that his 1981 stocker mustang will beat my skyline r33 gtst. Also thinks his crappy bronco can take me.

dont get me wrong... i love my line, but there is something about the sound and feel of the brute V8... only the worked ones though!!!

yobo, bogan?

[eMsta]

id call him an idiot

[VB-]

i'd call him out. if they say their cars are sooo much faster, tell em to put up or shut up

test and tune

the people like that aren't much different to people that think their reasonably stock turbo 6 will beat any random v8 (not dirrected at anyone, just making a point).

if it is a 'stang, it may have some mumbo, depending on what mods it has. a lot of the older v8's go better than the new ones. they don't have an ecu telling the motor to stop making power, or to control emissions. its as simple as to go faster, put your foot down further.

just think of cars like the XY GTHO phase 3 came out of the factory running low 14 second passes, and 0-100 in 5.5 seconds. now that may be common figures now, but this is a car built over 30 years ago. get a healthy one of these, throw some cams in it, different carby, bigger exhaust and a few other little things and you have a car that runs 12's, and will fry the tyres if you sneeze on the accelerator.

id call him a sick c**t... then walk off

[Busky2k]

There are fanbois everywhere. There are plenty of 4 cyl turbo guys who think they will own any V8. And if not, they go into the 'Hp/L' bullshit argument. Bah that shit is so yesterday.

[mad082]

HP/L doesn't mean squat. power to weight on the other hand.....

v8's usually pull well up top because of the bucket loads of torque.

Agreed.

(But first, get yourself another couple of psi boost and a 50 shot of NOS, just to be safe... )

i love v8's especialy the big blocks they kick ass.

your friend is an idiot alot of people out there drive the best car they can get for their money and the application it will be used for. not always just for brute force and to be able to tow a horse float.

[jrocket]

Yeah this guy i work with hates drifting. Says that people do drifting cos they can't do circuit racing. He recons that i should get a v8 or something for drifting. I tell him the reson people prob dont use v8s cos they are heavy and don't wip round the corners like the smaller cars. I was at winton raceway on the wkend and there was a mixture of cars. The v8's were in all the events but for some reason they all didn't want to have a crack at the drifting? i have NO idea why. Only one guy in a v8 gemini took it on, and he was not doing very well. spun out many times.

If "the guy you work with" finds out that Robbie Bolger took out 3rd place in the 2006 Toyo Drift Australia Series Championship, and 2nd place in the Oran Park top eight while driving a Monaro, your argument that you can't drift a V8 is going to go down the gurgler pretty fast.

end of thread....

hahaha honestly if they think that way then its just stupid, half their engine with a turbo could chop the 8, tell them not to be so worried about their penis sizes
