Ferrari 612 Scaglietti

Is it like this all the time? New here, and I've never known bickering amongst fellow enthusiasts like this before on other forums? I've read a couple of threads over the last day and found similar. Very odd.

Welcome to the forum. There is a VERY broad range of members on this forum. There are a few rather narrow (and not too bright...) minds on here, admittedly, and it does get a bit puerile sometimes, but don't let that put you off; the vast majority are friendly and helpful, and there is lots of interesting and useful information. The mods keep the bad language down, so the insults don't get too ripe, but the banter can be fairly lively.

I've been on here for nearly two years, and have had one or two 'exchanges of views' with other members, but it hasn't spoiled my enjoyment of the forum one whit. If you want a quiet life, though, don't post anything that the fast boys may interpret as criticism; some of them can be VERY aggressively defensive.

Dhard does seem to be a one-off, though; as on any public forum, he's entitled to his views, but they generally seem to attract nothing but excoriation. There are times when I can't help feeling sorry for him, and wonder why he does it.

The problem is some members have not got the intelligence to realise that Mercedes spend millions pounds aday engineering there cars to max standards possible in terms performance / safety . There that delude they buy cheap after market kits from two -bit company's operating from a lock up believing that they know more about the car than mercedes ...

As always Dan is correct in his superior knowledge of all that is Weistec, or any other 2 bit Company working from a "Lock up"

What he has obviously forgotten to mention is that Mercedes, or even AMG, only engineer their cars to a certain level, to enable ALL countries to benefit with various different fuels from country to country and different climates, and not "Max Standards" as Dan states. A little hiccup by Dan but no doubt he realised that once he posted his remarks..... :confused:

What Weistec, Eurocharged, Renntech, Brabus etc do is engineer stronger and more resilient parts which in turn enable the copious amounts of power a few of us have managed to produce through fine tuning etc :thumb:

I agree that it's not for everyone but for those of us that do modify, it sure is fun :D

If you honestly believe that mercedes deliberately engineer there cars to lesser level after spending years design them and millions developing them so other company's with no association with Mercedes can then claim to engineer better cars your even more delude than I thourght you must be the most gulabile custermer weistec have had they see you comeing a mile away ....
 
I wonder if AMG started off with millions of ££ (or $$ or DM or whatever)...

If I remember correctly from the AMG factory tour, they started off in a garage with a couple of enthusiasts...
 
Just as well Dan does not buy Mercedes Enthusiast magazine as they thought the Weistec TAT was OK

Shame this thread has just turned into another one of those ones that Dan has trashed.

The thread started by the op boasting about doing 200+mph in a car not engineer to do such speeds its members like you incoraging him that acceptable knowing he not got the inelegance to see the car not built to do such speeds knowing he got wife/ kids is SHOCKING !! SHOCKING !! ....
 
Dan, you're more than welcome to your opinion but when you start to get with personal insults, that's when I will hunt you down.
Take it a little easier with the "deluded" comments etc and all will be classed as banter, anything more than banter and things can quickly turn nasty ;)

Bringing my wife / kids in to the mix is not a wise move Dan. You have been warned :mad:

Mybe it's what you need to realise what your doing driving at such speeds / and as for hunting me down no need if you want to meet up some time just tell me when and were ..
 
I'm free for the next 2 weeks so wherever, whenever.............Coffee is my shout ;)

I can show you the cheap engineering and then you can form a realistic opinion :)

As a benchwarmer for this thread, a spectator if you will, I would suggest, politely and respectfully, that your point of view would hold greater credibility if you used syntax, grammar and correct spelling.

I know school is out but you can still be judged…….

THOURGHT
GULABILE
CUSTERMER
COMEING

In fact, I have the distinct impression that the sole reason for your involvement with this forum is to cause mischief…………no-one can be that irascible or obtuse. Which forum member with an axe to grind are you really?:dk:

Its members like you getting all excited and typing furiously, with no grammar skills that has everybody laughing at your expense.

Dan, all you do is come on here and spout off with your opinions. Its quite sad, and pathetic, that you resort to mentioning fellow members family when you have not met this person.

Maybe you should stick to reading your Janet and John books and come up with a more educated argument, than just sounding off.

Have you drove on the Autobahn?

I dare say its time the thread was closed as its just becoming a slagging match.

So hats off to you fella, your trolling has turned another thread into a load of nonsense. Well done and Merry Christmas.
 
I hope my thread doesn't get closed, would be very sad for one illiterate person to cause that!

Each to their own Lee, don't let the Troll get to you ;)
