AgtX80 Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Well, ive had my supra for 2 days & had no end of prats riding my rear bumper lol is this usual? Just now, doing 30 in a 30 zone, some guy in a jag who was going normally till he spots me & rockets up behind me, just indicated in, let him pass & started off again. Similar storys on dual carriageways except with vauxhalls & BMWs...apart from the stopping part of course What is everyone else's experience like?

GoliathJay Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Had mine about a month now and I obly have guys in higher caliber cars trying to race me. No chav'd up corsas. More BMW coupes, Scoobys and an F1 Megan. Driving round in it gets a lot of stares. Still undecided if this is a good thing or not...

AgtX80 Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 Well, im not budging in a 30 zone, its just stupid. Saw a few corsas, they did seem a little timid lol. Im wondering if people in the know like to test supras, is there any way of telling an N/A from a TT just from looking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im wondering if people in the know like to test supras, is there any way of telling an N/A from a TT just from looking? Nope no way of telling a TT from a NA. The only time you can be sure its a TT is when its a UK spec. Bonnet scoop dildo's etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Well, im not budging in a 30 zone, its just stupid. its good though when a thirty turns in to a national speed limit road though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgtX80 Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 i always enjoy the other guys reaction to me pulling over after hes been weaving around behind me. They must feel like idiots. He had a "baby on board" thing in the back window too, tut tut. My favorite is coming off a roundabout going straight on, on the dual carriageway . Its then that you can really see the power the car has, everyone else takes forever to get up to speed lol Its a constant battle to keep the car where i want it, it just wants to go fast. I have zero points on my licence & i want to keep it that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AgtX80 Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 id only do straight line performance up to the speed limit, its enough. I only just got this car & never driven a RWD before, it would be suicide to go flying into corners & roundabouts. Im treating it with a lot of respect.

Im wondering if people in the know like to test supras, is there any way of telling an N/A from a TT just from looking? on the first sentence. I've had a fair few 306's try it on. They usually pull up alongside or sit behind you then rev the nuts off the car No way of telling NA-TT without having a look for an intercooler. I've heard plenty of people not in the know saying that "only the turbos have the bonnet scoop" or, "if its got a rear wing it's a turbo" etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snake Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 The only other way to tell if its a bpu tt supra is if the driver is laughing when they rev up the corsa at the lights, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra_dan Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I get stared at all the time and knob head up my arse end. I normally slow right down to annoy them unless it's dual carriage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanchan Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I get stared at all the time and knob head up my arse end. I normally slow right down to annoy them unless it's dual carriage. They don't like that! Especially if it's a 30 zone and your speed is slowly reaching 20.... It's good fun though if there's only the one car behind you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz1 Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 i have had many a car wanting a blat with me, the rules i stick with are, 1, don,t even bother with chavs, with there corsas ect 2, don,t try in a 30-40-50 zone no matter what there car is 3, never try with anything if there is other cars around (you never know how they react to people doing silly speeds behind them 4, but with a clear road and a challenge with something meaty, i will go for it, but remember you have to accept the consequences;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgtX80 Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 Theres some total psychos out there on hair triggers, i dont want to find the unstable ones by pissing people off on purpose lol.
