This is just really weird, that some members of this forum are quite prepared to bag out other car brands, but when it comes to Fords being bagged... we can't take the heart???

Maybe a good opportunity for some of our members to look at their own actions before accusing other forums and other manufactures of bagging our cars out????

Hmmmm....

That is the dumbest thing i've heard all year.

I notice the acute shotage of young motoring superheros in their new LTDs & Fairlane G8s down on the esplanade on saturday nights although there seems to be a few at the clubs.
The new XR5 and the ST170 must surely be marketed towards the bowls clubs & RSL set because no young sport vehicle enthusiest would buy a FWD would they?

I recently raced a Mitsubishi EVO IX (and others) on QLD Raceway in my RWD F6 Typhoon and although I was quicker than almost everything else there (mostly RWD from our stable) I could not even come close to catching the EVO. Maybe I was dazzled by the bright cardigan and hat.....

People who come on to AFF and bag Fords are almost immediately identified as dropkicks and treated with the distain that they deserve. Do you not think that other fora would do the same?

The EVO IX is 4wd not Fwd and they are weapons from the factory (if I had the cash I would get one for the wife). They have 206KW ( but the journalists who test drove them reackon that it is more) and they are about 500kg lighter so it is no wonder it was quicker. Not making excuses for the F6 but the Evo's are more performance orientated than anything ford has to offer.


By the way how was its outright straight line speed, I'm just curious

I'd have to agree with flappist, I'd say an evo (proper evo not ricer try hard) would give most V8's a run for the money. Anyone see the episode of Top Gear where the evo kept up with a lambo on a racetrack and pushed the lambo so hard he lost it and spun out. Recent evo's are 2.0L turbo AWD and do 0-100km in 4.5 seconds. I'd love that technology in a ford.

Maybe an idea for a limited edition focus :

Just read that thread... pretty lame. I can't believe a Bitsamissen driver actually bagged another brand about build quality though!

I guess, its the spastic centre for car people : : :

What is your problem
1 of my best mates has Ceribal Palsy.
He went to a spastic school all of his life
if you want to bag people who drive different cars go for it
DO NOT DITCH PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD A ROUGH TROT
I have a major issue with your comment
I want you to prove to me that I am mistaken
I just can not see it though

um ok!
I dont think he intentionly bagged out spastic people or your friend with Ceribal Palsy for that face...take a step back, understand that we are all naieve in one way or annother and let it slide...Bagging out is exactly that- normally quite light hearted..I've lost count of how many times ive called someone a spastic in jest...does that make me bad? no, i have a lot of compassion disabled people

[TURBOTAXI]

I used to have a 3.5 Magna as a work car it really flew, much faster than my ED Fairmont Ghia V8. But what is this all about? Do any of us really care what other people say? At the end of the day, if the other forum members are just kids, why let kids push your buttons?, Even if they are not kids, life is too short to short to care that much about what other people say. You like your cars for your own reasons, as do they.

Yeah.. What he(Bucket) said.
When i was working for Westfields, i often had to help such people around.
So i do feel for those who aren't quite as lucky as the rest of us.

Yes I know the EVO is AWD but my point was that not all Mitsubishis were slow FWDs and not all Fords are RWD.

I was slowly gaining on the back straight but the EVOs agility on turns 1 & 2 as well as 4 & 5 just left me in the fumes. It was a rollerskate but a bloody quick rollerskate........

Agree 100%.

Calling anyone a spastic is derogatory, even if said in jest. Traditionally the only people who make comments like that are people of low intelligence; people who couldn't string a proper sentence together to save their lives, and think that Grammar is the elderly woman in the front room.
These people only ever feel powerful or superior by belittling others.
Yes I know someone who has a disability, and yes I take great personal offence to people who lucidly throw such insults about, without thinking of how they have degraded a whole group of people; people who are amongst the most vulnerable and defenceless in our society.

Isn't it enough that governments often forget this group, as they don't vote? To have people make reference to them as some kind of useless being is despicable and indefensible. Before any of you attempt to flame me for my stand on this issue remember this: around 60% of the people you call "spastic" or "spaz" or "tard" are born that way. The other 40% have become that way through trauma like car accidents, being bashed or genetics. In short, nobody here is immune from becoming disabled.

Don't get me started on the elderly either. Because that, I can guarantee most of you, is something we will all have to encounter sooner or later.
