God, I hate this country

Hi, I live in BC, Canada and I hate this place, it's got nothing. It has no racing schools, the nearest(and ONLY) track is in mission which is an hour drive, there is mostly drag racing there, they have road racing like once or twice a month, plus it costs even more money just to get in. I live around the tri-city area, and unless you want to be bored out of your mind, don't come here. One time I even asked one of my friends here, I said "what the h*ll is there to do here?", he said "I don't know". I hate this country, it's also a f*cking pain to find a place to even autocross, even in vancouver, this place really sucks, blows, etc,... Not to mention only 2 places to motocross both which are miles away to drive to. And one last thing, the drivers here SUCK! If you watch the drag racing events, people driving twin turbo supras will get into the high 15s, some even stall their engines, gee if only driving was this easy. Oh yeah, I forgot, there ain't NO f*cking schools here, no wonder they suck so much.

[/rant]

Oh well, at least there is a greater level of Sanity in Canada than those down below you.

Don't judge my entire country by the actions of one psychotic president... :lol:

"the nearest(and ONLY) track is in mission which is an hour drive"

the closest track to me is... hmmm... there is a drag strip in saskatoon 2 and a half hours. real tracks are going to be probabley in the next province.

"Not to mention only 2 places to motocross both which are miles away to drive to"

once again, none anywhere near me. hours and hours away.


", people driving twin turbo supras will get into the high 15s, some even stall their engines, gee if only driving was this easy"

there isnt even any supras here. the only ones there are here is the ancient ones. i have not seen 1 mk IV i think the newest ones are?

hell when i had my sunbird i used to go out and race kids some nights for the hell of it. and half of the kids had no idea whatsoever how to drive. You think you live somewhere boring... i live in the country, in Saskatchewan.

Yet, i manage to keep busy most of the time.

Deep River Ontario Canada here... Quit complaining about it buddy, people like you give our country a bad name.

Dont complain about that kind of crap dude, How many drag strips are there in Canada? Not a whole hell of a lot. How many motorcross tracks are there in Canada? Not a whole hell of a lot.

I live in a town with a population of about 2500..probably not even that many...I know what the deffinition of bored is.

But instead of bitching and complaining, I go and do something about it, We didnt have a skatepark, or a community basketball court, we raised money, and now have both. If you want a motorcross track, gather up some friends, find someone willing to donate land, and build one. If you want a drag strip...same thing, probably more expensive, but still.. Work for what you want, dont complain about what you dont have.

Now, I've probably come across as a prick, which Im trying not to be, but thats just how my words come out. I respect the fact that you are pissed off because there is no-where to showcase the ability of you, your vehicle, or dirt bike. So, why not make a road trip with some friends to a drag track, I know of a few in Canada, Make a trip up to one of them for a weekend.

if it's that wide open, find a spot where nobody is and just run there. if you want to be really creative see if you can work with the cops to get some kind of car show going.

and for the love of god steal the Supra's from the people that are embarassing them. i rarely drive a car with a manual tranny and i could still break into 14's with a Supra TT

Alright so I just came back from a drive, 3 things happened:

1) I was driving around a parking lot trying to find my way out, then this old school civic SiR backed out, and jumped in front of me out of nowhere and started screaming at me. How do I feel? People like this find it hard that any fault of this was theirs.

2)I was turning right onto a 2 lane road (there is an intersection on my left), and I needed to quickly turn left after so I went onto the far lane when it was clear (wasn't supposed to, but I needed to), and this ass was turning left at the intersection at 60ks and ending up almost rear ending me. He honked me, then he went into the other lane to cut me off purposely without signalling.

3) I was turning left on an intersection, and on the opposite side of the road a van needed to turn right, but I came to the intersection first, and when all was clear I just went, then the van came up behind me and honked me, I was about to flip the bird at this b*tch but there was a cop in front of me.

All this was just today, goes to show that a bunch of people here can't drive. Plus I always see these young teenagers on litre bikes with nothing but a helmet and a backpack on, cutting off people by a few feet from my front bumper without signalling. I hope these kids just die, and you know what the funny thing is? The big guys riding harley davidsons have more manners than these kids with no moral.


To Sony Mobile:
What is the point having a government or sccbc, when you gotta do every fucking thing yourself? Besides, do I have the time? No. I am driving around trying to find a job, and figuring out how to pay my F*CKING tuition fees AND my F*CKING insurance at the same time. My insurance is 2500 CAD per year, my tuition fees is 4500 CAD per year, now I don't even got a f*ckin' job. But there are some days where I want to do what I want and just relax right? These are the days I WANT to go racing, if there was a track at most a 20 minute drive then I would be ALOT more happy, i'd probably go there twice a week or so.

if it's that wide open, find a spot where nobody is and just run there. if you want to be really creative see if you can work with the cops to get some kind of car show going.

No, it isn't that wide open, the stupid govt is rebuilding roads that don't really need rebuilding, and there are GHOST cars everywhere, you can barely tell if it is a cop or just a regular car.

At least you DO get a chance to race. Personally, I'd prefer to see NO supras than to see them riced. People even rice up preludes here

Hey, Newb, since the rest of your posts are generally reasonable, I won't tell you to shut the hell up.
Have you ever lived anywhere else?
If you have you would know that your description is generally the same as anywhere else.
We are all a little bored, all the race tracks are far away. We all pay too much for auto insurance (your rates are not bad for a younger make with a (likely) sporty car. Tuition sucks, but its a lot more in the States. (How does $15,000+ US sound?)
BC is a beautiful place. If you want a crappy place for a car enthusiast come to Toronto in January.
At least you live in a temperate climate, you have a car and the opportunity to go to school and some free time.
You have got it good, man.
But, hey, if you don't think so, then move!

Well, I am posting in the right forum aren't I? So you really can't argue against the fact that I am pissed at the place I live in now.

Yes, as a matter of fact I HAVE lived elsewhere. In the US, you don't have a monopoly like we do, you get to choose what prices you want to pay right? 15000 USD is outrageuous, but to make it up, you guys earn more don't you? And no, I don't drive anything sporty, I have a 93' Toyota Corolla Station wagon. My bro drives a 2002 civic and he has to pay over 4 grand per year.

BC IS a beautiful place, but it's all because of the fact that it doesn't have much of the tall skyscraper buildings kinda look, that blocks out the natural environment. I know BC isn't perfect, but I am just pissed right now. It's really easy for you guys to say "you don't like it? MOVE", but I don't have the money, after I am through with BCIT, I am the hell out of here and that is that.

This place is good place to live, but you got these macho guys tryin' to be gangsta, these potsmokers that don't have anything better to do, and especially the drivers, the drivers follow you home just to tell you that you should stop at a stop sign if you accidently ran it.

BTW, Have you even lived in BC before? especially the tri-city area.

well, at least you can smoke that good bud, ehh?

kidding! Or am I? :smokin:

Ohhhh.....I am insulted now, boy!!!
What the fuck makes you think I'm an American?? :evillol:

If I was an American and you said that BC and Canada sucks, I wouldn't care now would I?
Frankly, I have no objection to your ranting. Its highly entertaining, because you have it so good.

Sure, Vancouver drivers suck, because half are too busy lighting the doobie, and the other half came from a country where they drive on the left side of the road, like I did!!!

I know because I did live there!!

Well I thought you were american cuz you referred to USA as "the states", and you know what the price of insurance is.

Oh, you wouldn't know if I had it good or not,you'd have to come here and watch me live my miserable life.

Vancouver drivers DO suck, they smoke pot, talk on a cellphone, and shift in their little stick shifts with a short throw knob, and drinking coffee all simultaneously.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Man thats funny. If you don't mind, I'll use that in my sig for a day or two.

I understand where you're coming from Auto_newb. I live on Vancouver Island where there is even less to do. There is a drag strip near Victoria, but it is only about 200 metres (1/8th mile) long. The roads are mostly shitty chipseal which are packed with pathetic, unattentive drivers. At least there are less coffee drinking, cellphone talking, newspaper reading, toenail clipping (etc.) morons here then in Vancouver.

Yeah that's true, this place sucks, there's so many drunk drivers, and you got these stupid pricks driving benzs, and BMWs, cutting off everyone and tailgating them, I've been thinking "maybe I should get a beater car so I can smash them all I want without a care in my head". I'm thinkin' of getting a beat up VW beetle cuz it was Hitler's favourite car. (no offense to the bug lovers/owners, if it makes you feel better I said "beat up" vw bug)

Newb...


With all due respect (which is none) you're a fuckin' moron!

First off get a job.
Secondly, get a girlfriend/boyfriend/it or whatever
Third who in the shit are you going to race in a '93 Corrola Station wagon.
and
Four, why are you worried about cops. I'd really like to see you try to break the speed limit in under a 1/4 mile.

No offense. :loser:

Newb...you act like you're in the worst possible place ever, simply cuz ur bored and theres no where to reach 50 mph...I DO live in "the states", yes, the United Fucking States of Fucked Up America, where all our "freedoms" described in our constitution are constantly getting us arrested or beat (freedom of press, religion, speech, etc.). But I don't sit here and Bitch about how bored I am, or how much I hate this place cuz theres nothing to do. I don't bitch cuz I know theres people less fortunate than me. Hell, my neighbor got 3 of the 6 windows knocked out of his car, by hail, and he can't afford to fix them (BTW, its storm season here). I don't bitch cuz the family I left, back in California, is having more money problems than I am, AND I CAN'T HELP! How do you think that makes me feel? pretty pissed off that I can't help my mother that supported me for 18 years. I can't hardly afford to get my car fixed, check the link in my sig, I'm borrowing a friends car to go to work. At least you have a car, at least you're not starving (I'm not, but there are people that do), at least you're getting a college education. Enjoy the things you have in life, cuz it's gonna suck when its all gone and all you have is work and sleep. Make the 1 hour trip to the race track once a week. Go to the motocross track every other week. You act like 1-2 hours is a long time.

Our ancestors had to farm by hand, no machinery. They had to walk to town, and tend the herds. They still had time to sit down with their families and have fun. With all of our technological advances, why do we have less time for ourselves?

except it does, in fact, burn time

experiment with ur car...make a hood scoop...grab some tubing and make a header...clean out your intake manifold...design a new suspension system...hell, you've got a computer, get Dyno2000 and rig yourself up a new motor...there's lotsa shit you can do to keep you busy, especially when you have a car and a computer...some people are just too lazy to do anything except complain about being bored, and blame everyone else for it when they have nothing to do with it.

If I came off as an asshole, I'm sorry.

The fact of the matter is, I AM AN ASSHOLE.

Between work, my Girlfriend, Hobbies, and always Helping friends and family with crap, I wish I had time to be Bored. Its just a part of life.

Everything you listed requires something that I don't have enough of, money.


There's only so much video gaming one can do...


exactly, I got so sick of video games, that I am kinda "retired" from that sh*t. Not only does playing games all day make me dizzy, it also feels depressing...


You guys also forget that I am also complaining about the a*shole drivers here, and the people here seem so unforgiving.

:loser:

Everybody sign!


I think you misspelled sing there, guy.

One word: Smoth

Don't judge my entire country by the actions of one psychotic president... :lol:


I think he was hinting towards the gun-control problem :D

I think you misspelled sing there, guy.

One word: Smoth
if your going to make fun of someone publically about their spelling mistakes....please ensure you do not make the same mistake
justa thought ;)

how long did it take you to come the conclusion that Canada sucks? :loser: :lol:

/\Oh geeze, he's complaining about the country because he has no friends!
:lol2: jk, go find a hobby

Here in Los Angeles there's clubs, bars, restaurants, theaters, top name bands playing somewhere almost every night. There's also traffic jams, pollution, high insurance rates, murder, rape, freeway chases, cops beating up citizens, you freakin' name it. It's what happens when you crowd millions of people into one city.


ain't NO f*cking racing schools here, either.

testify

thats just it. i dont get a chance to race.

I live nearby, so I know what you're talking about. The point: everywhere you go will have its advantages and disavantages.

You know what? I've tried to find those cars all over the place, I like the old school Supras.


hell when i had my sunbird i used to go out and race kids some nights for the hell of it. and half of the kids had no idea whatsoever how to drive. You think you live somewhere boring... i live in the country, in Saskatchewan.

Yet, i manage to keep busy most of the time.

Well, I am lifelessly browsing these boards to kill time, what do YOU think?

First off get a job.
Secondly, get a girlfriend/boyfriend/it or whatever
Third who in the shit are you going to race in a '93 Corrola Station wagon.
and
Four, why are you worried about cops. I'd really like to see you try to break the speed limit in under a 1/4 mile.


For some reason, I feel I should reply to this:
First off, I AM finding a F*cking job. Secondly, my girlfriend broke up with me.

Thirdly, what do you want me to do to the car? Cover it with stickers? Really man, you don't need an F1 car to go road racing or autocrossing, don't you kids get it? As many people have said "It's all about the driver".
Lastly, I am DAMN worried about the cops because I could get my license suspended since I don't have my FULL license yet and WTF :wtf: are you talking about?

Auto-Newb, why is your brothers car in your profile? You will race your Corrola Wagon but you seem ashamed enough to keep it off the profile, Im sure its not that we doubt your driving skills :lol2: ... Im sure my Quad could beat you in the 1/4 mile. Stop your bitching and just be glad you have a roof over your head and food to eat, get a job and stop acting like your town is a third world country. No one here in this forum is going to have pitty for you. wait till you grow up and the world throws some real problems at you, besides having to drive 2hrs to race your wagon. :lol:

Everything you listed requires something that I don't have enough of, money.

Then why are you even considering racing your wagon? Can you afford admission, to the car track OR moto-x track?

Your bored cause your lazy. The time you spend here in the forums could be spent looking for jobs, or NOT BEING BORED. I'll bet half of the people on this forum, come online while at work. Hell, in the middle of the day, anyone over 18 that is online, IS at work.

Get off your ass and quit complainin, your not gonna get sympathy here when you try to blame others for your bein lazy.

I'm at work right now.....see job's are fun :rolleyes:
Got lots of time, build something, keep yourself busy. Driving 2 hrs to race isnt so bad, maybe you can bring a friend/s along for the raod trip making it seem less of a boring drive.
Seriously, as mentionned above, you don't live in a country that bombs go off on a daily basis, or have to be worried about having food maybe even clean water. Hating your country because of boredom is ST00PID, 'nuff said.

I know I could be looking for a job, but I am pissed off you see, so I AM posting in THE STRESS RELEASE FORUM.

You know what? If you don't like my posts then don't bother coming back. This is a stress release forum and if you can't read the caption "don't be offended by what's inside", then you are obviously no elgible to be in here.

haha, I didn't look into the details for speedzone. And skip barber isn't that far, I could drive there in 40 mins... the place is like 80 kms.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind getting out of this city full of jackasses either, everyone is SOOO impatient here, plus they are so cocky about Americans, gives me a headache...

This country is one of the better ones.It just needs to legalize weed and vigilanty justice, vice city style. I hate Canada, there all pompus assholes.
