RX8 sucks ***** in many other ways. Many moons ago I was lucky enough to get ahead of a retarded Civic driver and even slowly got away from him on a curvy road... Just to exit it and see a wall of traffic ahead... I hit the brakes, and the sh!tty the car stopped on a dime, with poor b**d on Civic almost slamming into me.

If mazda engineers had any sense, they would have made the car's deceleration as slow as its pickup... that would have made for much more smooth and harmonious driving experience.
So - you are saying it's Accelerates too slowly, and stops too quickly? Are you serious?

What a tool.

Or is that....Troll? or both?

No, he's not serious. That was just more sarcasm for your sarcastic thread...

what he wrote wasn't sarcasm. or maybe I didn't read it with the right internal tone. reading as if I wrote it, I giggled a little.

I realize now that the poster "Toly" is indeed after all just trying to rile up the club.
So that's my mistake trying to defend his right to express his opinions.
While indeed he is a troll, but by responding to him more, and letting him get to you, is just feeding the troll even more so.

Sometimes I don't know what I hate more about the depreciation of this car...
the declining value of my vehicle, or it's more accessible to more and more ricers.
And keep in mind while ricers typically are younger drivers, some of them never grew up as they physically age.

I applaud the members of this club (or the ones participating this thread) for not flaming me as much as I thought I'd get flamed.
I really did not expect it.

Yesterday I was driving a busy two lane road and this guy in a old Civic appeared in my rear view mirror . I was driving how i normally do - quick but safe . This guy decides it is all on and proceeds to pass me on a blind corner - I had to brake to let him past or else he would have ended up going right around the blind corner on the wrong side of the road .
I followed the guy for a littlebit - he did the same thing to a couple of other cars along with passing on a double yellow line (highly illeagal in this country-instant loss of licence) . I could scarcely believe the risks this guy was taking .
He made it to the next town before i did and I'm guessing he is now skiteing on how he beat an rx8 through teh twisties . Lucky he didn't know I was turboed or the tale would be even better .

So - there you have it .Clapped out honda Civics are faster than 300whp RX8 s .....
