Banter Thread Part 3 (Back with a Vengeance, this time its personal)

Couldn't see spending $$ on that car when I will never be done with the T/A.

True, the TA does have that purpose.

Hell...I wasn't even up for the 3-step paint crap today.
Roommate talked me into it. :lol:

Ran into an '04 GTO last night.
Don't know anything about it other than that. Hit it from about a 60mph roll...(assuming his was an M6, mine an A4) but surprisingly stuck with him the entire way. He hit it before me, so he jumped out about 1 1/2 lengths, but he never pulled further than that away when I stepped on it. So, I'm pretty happy with that considering I don't have a tune for anything I have.
Just thought I'd share.

Nice!!!

I would assume you should stay with one though. Big car requires a bit more power to be as quick.
Nice cars though!!!
I would really enjoy one with a mild stroker.

Yeah, plus high speed rolls in an auto is a big disadvantage. From that speed, I pretty much only kicked down into 3rd. 2nd gear is my pull gear.
But I would really like to line up with an LS1 and see how the Z really handles it. My friend at work has a 99 Anniversary WS6, but he drives like a little woman and doesn't go over 60. I'll eventually run him though.

The white with blue???
I love those.

I just wouldn't have modded it like I did mine.

Ts Is The Greatest Admin In The World!!!!!

Yeah, the white with blue stripes and matching baby blue rims with blue ram air. Its bone stock though. He talks a good game but actually doesn't know shit about cars. We make fun of him so much behind his back. Its his only vehicle and has to drive it during the winter too. He doesn't deserve that car.

Suck up. He's not going to make you a mod too.

i got a pic of one at the gm nationals. it was modded up pretty good though;

Yup, that's it. But those wheels look like a darker blue than my friend's wheels. Must be the lighting or something. Beautiful car though.

Will the collector's value of the car go down if it had aftermarket stuff on it?
That's one of his excuses for not doing anything to it, "it will lose value...wah wah wah..." Sweet car nonetheless.

i wouldn't think so. to me that would make it more unique as most have that "leave it stock" attitude. as long as you keep all of the original parts so there is the option to return it to stock.

Yeah, modern V8's aren't meant to be left stock.

exactly. they actually become more efficient with the addition of basic bolt ons so y leave it stock. thats like disrespecting ur car.
o by the way.....1000 POSTS, YEAH!!!! sry, just had to :disappoin .

I was actually waiting for that one. You took your damned old time getting there though on your last 20 posts.

Poor is giving a valiant effort to reach 1k also.

I know...its taking long enough. I though I was closer than what I was. I think I'll be there within the next month. We need another good raid, 6.

I'm afraid that with another good raid, you'll never reach 1k sadly.

Rally whores out 9k useless posts and becomes a mod, we post 40 or so useless posts and AF goes under lock-down and we get thrown in the shu.

I'm kidding Rally.

Some people just play favorites...

After I play xbox, I'll help you get to 1k tonight.

I dunno, 128 posts is a lot for one night. I'm pretty sure Formula or TS will crucify me for that. But, I never turn down a challenge.

By the way, what the hell happened to the 'Relationship' section in the Off-Topic section of AF? I just went there and it was gone. WTF? I liked spreading advice and laughing at people's problems.

It was taken off because if you think about it, there were alot of subforums for the off topic place and it was really cluttered. Im glad they took those off as well.

Don't forget about me!!!

This isn't about you Gold, go back to your corner for now....

Funny story, had a mechanic workin' on my car and I hear a grinding noise after. I take the wheel off and to my (sarcastic) surprise, I find that my brake pad has been put on backwards. This is the 3rd different mechanic to put a brake pad on backwards on this same wheel. Not cool....That rotor is beyond ruined.

Wow thats horrible. I dont know how you could put a pad backwards.

It's the third time that's happened on that same wheel! Ugh, stupid stuff that I end up having to deal with.

Gold, I'll try to have some pics up Thursday or Friday and will get some pics of the bike black. I'm having trouble finding a place to make that 666 design. No where will make it except one place and they only do bulk orders of 1,000 or more, that's not an option. So I dunno.....

http://www.iol.ie/~dluby/escape.htm It's a super old game but fun. 18 seconds is supposed to be a reasonable goal for that game, my best tonight it 24.891.

The Relationship section is still there just in the Media & Lifestyles (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=2056)section.

Dude, there are better games out there...why are you playing that one?

Speaking of games, a got out the old Nintendo 64 a few nights ago and started up the carnage on Perfect Dark. That game is a classic...I love it. Its sad though, because I'm not yet ranked number 1.

That game takes skill, not luck or overkill like in shooter games. Last night me and my brother were playing mvp baseball 2005 on xbox and we were both the Cardinals. I ended up winning 3-2 with a single by Pujols in the bottom of the 19th.

BTW, where were you on the 128 posts last night?

I was listening to my iTunes and a song came on and I just got sad and pissed off at the same time, then I got tired and went to bed. But if I hit 900 before the day is over, I'll be happy. Unfortunately, I have to work today.

And Go Cardinals. Pujols is the shit. He hit 3 HR in a row a few nights ago. I think he would have the most homeruns right now if he didn't get injured. But our pitching sucks, that's why we don't have the best record in baseball, or why we haven't gotten 100 wins this season.

The Cardinals are my second favorite team, only behind the Braves.

Well, the Cards will be your favorite team in October.

I wonder how far the Tigers will go? That's the biggest surprise to me. The Braves suck this year, it's crazy.

Yeah, the Tigers came out of nowhere. I don't think they'll make if far for lack of post-season experience. But they go from the WORST team in baseball to decent. Not bad though.

Oh my lord, you ladies are the biggest whores I want the last 2 hours of my day back for trying to get caught up on this senselessness.

OH and a big :thumbsup: to our new mods:

Rally Sport - moderator to the Jack in the Box breath/how to pick up red headed men while on a couch in the lawn forum. :lol2:

Goldz28 - moderator to the new video section, where the only moderation involved is to remind posters to catch a glare of their shaved man legs in pink shorts in the video. :uhoh:

Zl1power69 - moderator to 1.000 post forum, you are now obligated to forward every post in every forum that boasts this feat.

Did I miss anybody? :dunno:

Oh, and go Cubs! :spit:

:rofl: Awesome post.. Wright I thought you got mod status too? Guess I was wrong.

I've been subjected to too many versions of the "You suck list" I guess :dunno:

I don't know, do we really any more mods around here?

:rofl: Awesome post.. Wright I thought you got mod status too? Guess I was wrong.
He was offered a moderator position and was not around to accept or decline the offer.

Did you see his name at the bottom with all the other mods?

Oh, that makes sense. That sucks, but the Camaro forum doesnt need anymore mods really.. 6 mods is alot. :lol2:

Had to take care of the misses, her mom, whos pretty much has been more of a mom than anything I've ever known for the last 9 years passed last week.

Agreed, I vote we demote Rally!

Im not a mod for the Camaro forum :p

And Wright, thats bad, how did she pass?

Sorry to hear that Wright.

Rally, I was only kidding...

And Wright, thats bad, how did she pass?

Been battliing brain cancer for the last 4 years, finally all the treatments that could kill the tumor did damage elsewhere and her heart gave out. We were all there at the bed side, she went quick and seemingly painless, atleast the bottom line is the she isn't in pain anymore.

I am very sorry to hear that. I know losing a parent is very tough. You and your wife have my best wishes.

That's sad, I remember when my uncle had brain cancer. It was horrible to have to watch. Best of luck to you and your family.

I am very sorry to hear that. I know losing a parent is very tough. You and your wife have my best wishes.

Thanks, I appreciate it. I came from a screwed up family, so now that I have one, we've been going through all this, + her dad has had 2 heart attacks while trying to keep her mom going ........ It's crazy

The Camaro forum only really has 2 local mods to this area and only one more mod was added to this section besides the position that was offered to Wright and while the moderators who are not local to this forum may not be a mod for this section they have all been told to keep a eye on other sections and know the guidelines for all AF.

You know what's kind of funny is your "council mod" sub tittle comes up under blindeyed when I look at the list of of moderators :lol: Maybe it's just my brweser, still kind of jacked up :dunno:

I dont like the fact that John's name is now White because its really freaking hard to see when you're using the 'lighter' version of AF, I like it alot better than the purple/traditional view.

Like I said, its just his way of showing us that he thinks he's better than all of us.

And I'm sorry for your loss Wright. She must have been tough to fight for 4 years. But like you said, she's not it any more pain. My condolences go out to you and your family.

You need to change that to "knows" :grinyes: , well maybe not all of you but definetly you and maybe 666 :icon16:

You only say that stuff about 6 and I to feel better about yourself. You have no moral justification, you just don't have anyone else you give your shaft to,:lol: so you pick on people to bring up your self-esteem.

Agreed. It's not our fault your hampster has bigger nuts than you.
