"you people need to grow up." - deliberately inflamatory stated out of frustration?
"so quick to talk down someone without even knowing anything." Huh?
As for me I'm assuming your beef is with Rich. If so no harm no foul.
If you do beleive "we" are attacking your thread then I think the issue was with the way you titled the thread. At least from my perspective (and others apparently). It is of course your right to call it whatever you want. Titles that sensationalize the content are obviously going to get more hits. However when the title is most likely factually incorrect well one might come to expect some critical feedback, no?

i bet if i wrote, "nsx gets his *** handed to him by the FD, *vid*", people would be like LOL yeah man you're right, the FD is badass..
but you see how people's reactions change when we're talking about their car..
now you have to understand, i did not make this thread to offend anyone, why would i? i own the same car as you guys and the one in the vid?? thats what im trying to say LOL
no i have no beef with rich, nor do i have beef with you, i dont have a problem with not a single one on this forum..i think beef over the internet is stupid..i come here, learn from you guys, get entertained in the lounge and sell/buy stuff in the for sale section, thats all..i dont come here to start trouble, anyone who does is a moron..imo.
i just seem to find it weird that how words without expression can get soo many negative reactions..maybe i should have used a smiley in my post?? would that have changed the outcome?
in conclusion, we should just end this, thread title is now more appropiate, i already explained everything you need to know and we should just be happy and move on..

S/C'd with HRE wheels (just Connie Sports, no R-Compound). The handling and balance of that car was just flat out amazing. That car, while costing a lot more, would put more than a handful of FD's in it's place (with the right driver, not the one driving that day!).

Looks more like "rent a ride @ the race track".
The driver of the Rx7 was just for filling a dream.

Don't get me wrong, the FD is not the be-all and end-all of sports cars. There are other cars out there that impress me performance-wise, and the NSX is not one of them, based on my experiences.
