"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?

well a little frustrated, i wasnt mad though, it was because one cannot make a thread with a little humor behind it and not get slammed by all the members who got offended by it..

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..

Uh, maybe the early NSX's. But the later ones are more than capable of putting a stock or lightly modded FD in it's place. I got a chance to instruct one a few months back:

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.
I'm with you. In one of the turn the drive goes in the wrong way then he try to correct himself by following the NSX's path. I think someone is going to some driving school to me.

I've mainly seen older NSX's at the track, so that is the frame of reference I spoke from. I am sure that the newer ones would be more impressive.

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.
