Am just dying for the *eternal antagonist* to turn up, so we can watch the fireworks

Think I'll get me a snack from the foyer whilst we wait

good to see you about Gaz, was gunna pm you as you've been very quiet
i've had a tvr and a ricer, and you just know which is quicker
same as an Evo FQ-400 vs a 360, 360 may look faster but in the 'real world' it doesn't have a chance

God they really do have a superiority complex don't they? Listening to them bang on about their 10 yr old GRP rollerskates makes me cringe.

Hi Gazboy I see you wont be Vmaxing this time either Still in relation to this question over TVR and Scoobydoo i cant remember Oggs wooping me at either top end or in agility at Brunters or come to think of it that many of the Tvr boys really giving me that much of a caneing (thats 400's or 500's the cerbs tuscs and t350 are pretty quick certainly quicker than me until it comes to a corner)

Works both ways guys. I am sure there are just as many Jap owners who think the opposite and sound just as annoying.

I am an ex Griffith 500 owner and loved that car in a quite irrational way. Still do love all things TVR with a passion. In the dry, and on a good surface I could smash literally ANYTHING but of course that only half the story. When it rained even slightly I used to fishtail about while a mildly modded MX5 got away from me.

I am now in the hunt for an R32 GTR. Totally different cars but I love both dearly. What does that make me?

A car enthusiast I reckon. But religious wars are always good to watch from the sidelines and laugh at the zealots on both sides.

I'll agree with the comments on here as well. I used to own and love a Datsun 240Z that I steadily modified. And I bitterly regret getting rid of it.
I love the Wedge just as much, even though it's probably no quicker, but the noise of the V8 etc is fabulous. They all go well in different ways and in different conditions. I'm just a car nut that loves anything thats fast and looks good IMO.

Gotta go, running out of popcorn
