j_jza80 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 In light of it being Back to the Future day, I've had some inspiration for a thread. If you had the flying delorean for a day, when and where would you go, and what would you do? The only limitations are where the car can physically go.

a98pmalcolm Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Id go back and buy some shares in a company that have done well. Or purchace a rare and valuable item. Although id like to see the future there maybe no world left amd you would either die instantly or there could be no roads to hit 88 or nothing to feed Mr Fusion with lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendo11 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I'd take the risk and go forwards quite a bit I think. I'd like to see a time when we've explored & colonised space and met intelligent life out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Donuts Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I'd definitely go forward in time to see if I've still got my hair and that I'm not bald. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Eastbourne, 16th Aug 2014, 5:30pm and do something nice with Dad. That's definitely where the Delorean would take me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny g Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I'd take a trip back to November 26, 2003 and go as high as the hover car would go and see if I could see Concorde in super-cruise at Mach 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glanza_Mike Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I'd go back about ten years, spend some time with my Brother and Grandparents again and then put every single penny i currently have one some bets that i'd written down that i knew were coming in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_b Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 If you had the delorean for a day, when and where would you go, and what would you do? Probably sit on the roadside, waiting for a breakdown recovery truck. I'd go back to April 8th 1988 and have the day off work What happened?

adnanshah247 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Id put the time machine in garage and leave it be. I wouldn't change my past because my past has made me what I am today, I wouldn't see my future because what's the fun in living then if I know what's going to happen.

You don't have to change anything. But surely there must be something that has happened in the past, or will happen, that you want to see with your own eyes? Even beyond your own lifetime.

Parm_93 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Take all the TT6's and flog them for £100k.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I'd go back a long time and blow up Stockport Registry Office. LOL! Well - if you had a TIME MACHINE for a day - then you've got it for as long as you want it. In which case it'd take too long to explain. You'd be better off saying "if you could make just one trip". I'd go back 6 years and prevent myself from buying a house in Greece. Or like Hitch Hikers Guide - go to the restaurant at the end of the universe. Looks like a great party.

JasonR24 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I'd go back to the beginning of today so I could buy a Pepsi perfect and not have greedy sods selling a $20 product for £300+ on eBay hope that doesn't happen with the air mags as well!

I'd go back to the beginning of last week, fly to New York and beat up every d**k who got them for free who were planning to sell for hundreds. If Nike only make a limited run of the Nike Mags they will be stupid. I understood that the 2011 batch were limited as they were just reps.

I've heard they might be auctioning them and making a limited run again... I know it's for charity but auctioning is pretty sickening for this sort of thing as it just means people with a spare 100k get them...

Even if they were given away to relatively poor people, they would then sell them on to cash in on them. Sadly it's supply and demand, but at least if they're auctioned the charity stands to benefit from it. And I suspect these will be a very limited run, I doubt Nike will want to mass produce a shoe with a complicated, powered lace system.

It would nice if that fans could actually get hold of them rather than people just looking to profit and the charity won't get any money from the ones sold on for a profit which is even sadder.... Anyway didn't want to get political so sorry for the thread hi jack! Just want some power laces and a Pepsi perfect lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
