Considering no one is actively bagging the Holden product, just having a laugh about a particular result, I see no harm.
Political correctness can sometimes go too far, this is a Ford site and we love our Fords. If the same thing doesnt happen on Holden sites I'll eat my hat.
No worries mate I understand fully.

Actually very very very rarely does a topic like this ever occur on StreetCommodores (You guys may think different) I dont know what the LS1 fourms are like as ive nver been there.

But each to their own.I understand that alot of people dont like Commodores and thats fine with me as I dont really give a f*** if its a Ford or a Holden I still pay the respect that they deserve.

To be honest a thread like this is very rare here too and probably would have died a boring death except for the demise of rick69.

Consider it a small indulgence that we permit ourselves every now and then... just like most others.

No mate we don't hate Commodore owners in general. It's just some like Rick who really only come here to beat their chest and deliberately cause a stir.

lol.. i just think natty boy here is exagerating a tad... :p i think 'ripping' any car up to 100k's is preety hard to do, unless your versing a 4 cylinder or less in a 6.. :p Nah, natty did beat me.. fair and square.. but as even he will say, my car is running real real bad atm... i know... no excuses.. haha.. but sayin he ripped me is funny... i kept up with him the whole time.. as i should..

P.S. oh... this was when he had the au ... i know i wouldnt stand a chance with a manual xr6... until i mod myn up abit..

holy threadmining batman!
Crofty you would have a better chance of beating an XR6 - same engine more weight. And if they are a manual you would have a better chance again. Auto's are quicker.
VX's are nice rides arent they

SS mate the N/A XR6 manuals arent that bad, and they will beat an auto VX.
I drive both and well I might get in trouble if I say anything else. Mind you it would be neck and neck.

VX's are friggin beaut mate! Love em!

Once I get everything mechanically sorted out with my car which isnt much... Ill eventually give natty a try... i dont like my chances though... HIS xr6 ( :P ) is a preety tough piece of machinery...

well, since they swapped drivers and stidds drove the hsv and the guy drove the xr.. the hsv only pulled away after 100odd k/h.. hey shaun u know as well as i do that my au was alot sicker then your car anyways when we had our lil race..
also SSBUB... i have no problems with commos.. crofty will tell you that, but since i could hold a gen3 till 70 k/h with 3 ppl in the car i dont think that a stock 6 vx could beat my car.. crofty was in the car when that happened so he can vouch for me.. on a private road of course

Commodore nice ride AHAHAHAHAHAH!!!! :
Yeah the executive is a better drive then a forte, futura and fairmont but the rest, well just forget it the commo will get b$#ch slapped every time. I love the jelly bean look with the ultra hard and cheap looking interior plastics. You'd have to be a mongoloid to drive one.
