tony tt Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 There's a fair few tossers on here!! Very true but for the most part everyone gets on quite well. Everyone on here shares a common interest and the cars are what it's all about at the end of the day regardless if some people have issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitz Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 You're welcome Bradley I would certainly go out of my way to help Brad out if he needed a hand with something. He came to my aid at DB when I split a hose in the bay whereas many just took pictures and drove off. An absolute gent and all round nice guy. P.s. where is my bourbon?

Havard you know I love you for those Pain au Chocolat and for both yours and Mrs H generosity with the water donation, much obliged Fitz…! Don't forget the H's helped also. Hell hath no fury like a Havard scorned… or something like that. I haven't forgotten, they are both on my Christmas card list for 2013 Sorry I was busy pushing Dean's and Steve's Supra's across the boarder! I see so its a racist thing, an Asian guy breaks down so you turn to help him out. MR H. will put cat poo through your letterbox. If you upset him. LOL Thankfully thats been avoided.

Chris Wilson Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Apologies up front for the sappy thread! But if you read my thread: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?270045-My-evolution-of-Toyota-vehicles-leading-to-my-Supra-(no-need-for-snide-comments-plz) you might appreciate this more. I've been stationed in England as a US Air Force member since July of 2009. I did not mesh much with your country much as the weather really brought me drown and the Brits that I met around the base were really mean/rude. Coming out of Afganistan at the end of 2011, I finally bought the car of my dreams and immediately jumped into the Supra scene. I was extremely disappointed in the comraderie of the US forums despite the abundace of technical knowledge. I joined this forum and was instantly greeted with the camraderie that should be expected in these types of communities. I believe the friends and contacts I have made here have genuinely changed my opinion of this country and I thank each and every one of you. Thank you for being there for me when I mentally needed you most and I will continue to be there for you all spiritually, mentally, and physically whenever possible! Your original opinion was right! It's a lousy country, and full of slobs. Don't doubt yourself my friend Seriously though, many of us English are pretty civilised and on a feel good day we'll talk to Americans as near equals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Group hug? I've been a member of the forum and owned a supra for over a decade, yet even though I don't own a Supra any more () I'm still here. The breadth of knowledge and that camaraderie you mention means I'll just ask on here rather than some other car forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc_p Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Correct, Steve's tan was pretty convincing too What if I just put a box of tissues on the parcel shelf and hang a CD from the rear view mirror? Is that enough to get you to stop and help if I need it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philly_1 Lex Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 My first experience with this community was with the "Bluewater Crew" approximately around a year ago courtesy of Brad. That night I was a bit nervous, but after meeting so many genuine guys/gals with a real love for the MKIV Supra by the end of the night I felt like I had known them for years. Awesome meeting Abz, clay and a few others. Will be great to finally see them again after so long and catch up. I myself being an American thought "Man these guys aren't as bad as I thought they would be. With a little practice I could have them speaking proper english in no time" lol I hope to meet and make more friends at the 20th anniversary.
