What is there to fight about in forza? What are you guys swinging your canes at each other from across the park? My hoveround is better than your hoveround because it's got an STP decal on it?

See...look at all the arguing we did on one thread in half a day. Knight and I could probably finish out the year on the same argument just by adding nonsensical shit into the mix. Anything is worth fighting over, and yet none of it is. It's just the result of everyone in the room being a dick with a creative streak. We don't need a reason, we're just being ourselves.

Why would we need a reason to fight? We try not to rationalize it too much.

Jones is right there rarely is much rationality when things kick off, the only decision I have to make is will I or won't I wade in to wind things up even more. 9 times out of 10 I leave well enough alone.

No the 4 cylendar is better, no the the six is...I think that's how it always starts or maybe it's like I like purple and you like green lets fight. Or as my history teacher said I never start a fight but I always finish one...I'm like you're a history teaher right? Maybe you should learn something from that...

4 cylinder? You must be out of your mind. That's the kind of talk I expect from someone who applies Momo stickers on their riding lawnmower. Six cylinders are for Grampas who play wooden instruments and relax with a Pearl or Pabst on the porch swing while talking about the good ol' days when rotary phones were all the rage. If you want to do this thing, and do it right, you will need a minimum of eight cylinders. This ain't no Japanese "let's see how slow I look on the replay" game, son...we are talking about POWER! It's about controlling that power, bravado, and the testicular fortitude of titans battling for supremacy in a rolling arena of death...and exhaust. If I catch you puttering around on my track in some 4 cylinder Japanese turdmobile, I will knock it off the track. Then , when I come around to lap you, my car will mount your sad excuse of a race machine and fuck it all the way to the finish line.

People like to apply flames to muscle cars in imitation of British cars, which are actually in flames due to faulty electrical systems. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Meh, the Irish don't buid cars, but we do have corners, so when you guys work out how to make one that goes around corners let me know.

To give the Brittish credit, Lucas did invent the three position headlight switch. Dim, Intermitant and Off.

Oh look what I found!

I can agree w/ most.....but I'm afraid I must contest the # of doors.  While it is harder to get it done proper w/ 4 doors, it can be done.    V8 Supercar (and the accompaning street versions, FPV Falcon & HSV Commodore).  Nuff said.  55  And the DTMs aren't too bad.....though a bit too many areo doodads for my tastes.

That's cause you tend to bend 'em... cheeky

Seriously, and this is oldschool thinking, 4 doors were for hauling kids, the 2 doors were always worth more as collectors items, and for modifying and racing. That didn't really change until the Caprices started to age and the kids started getting a hold of them, late 80's maybe? Problem is, some simply stopped making 2 doors. Truthfully, a 4 door, while heavier, is stiffer.

I do remember some late 60's early 70's wagons that looked pretty tough if set up right.
