Homer Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 A few ones from last summer: Them: How fast does it go? Me: How much do you think? Them: 120mph? 125mph? Me: Erm, a bit more than that Them: WOW!!! Them: How many dump valves has it got? Them: Has it got NOS? Me: No, doesn't need it One lad: My dads escort has NOS, its much faster (They then all sigh and move on!!) Lad with 50cc offroad bike: (points at the RSR) That'd look wicked on me bike! But the one I get all the bloody time (especially from groups) is the "spin the wheels" sign. At least I think that’s what they mean! I'd be happy to oblige but there's speed bumps every 40 foot around here so prating about is out of the question. Just last month I walked past one group when the biggest lad came over and told me they thought I was boring because I never spin the wheels when they ask!

Guest mk47 Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 A young chav in training (approx 10 years old) came up to me while i was parked up outside a mates house.. Him: Nice car what is it? Me: Supra (Phone rings...im engaged in conversation) Him: How fast do you go? Me: 180mph (return to phone conversation) Meanwhile.. the older veteran chav father comes out from the gates, where the son turns around to him and says "dad look a subaru" Chavs dad: That aint a fuckin subaru you muppet, its a supra. Nice looking car NOT VERY RELIABLE.. Now get your ass inside dinners on. Surprising that, when as far as i recall he had a battered up cavalier or carlton something like that sitting outside, VERRRRRY reliable.

Just last month I walked past one group when the biggest lad came over and told me they thought I was boring because I never spin the wheels when they ask! Theres a pub in town that has seating outside that goes right accross the pavement next to a junction, pulled up there and all I get is a chant of "Smoke em!" so I did nice big burn out (well big for an NA!) only to find that on the other side of the table is to coppers having a spot of lunch! Luckly they gave me the and were grinning like idiots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraAyf Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 But aren't all Supe owners locked in to their childhoods! I'm almost 34 and I think I only achieved double-figures in terms of mental age last week!! EXAMPLE 1: 12-year old kid in the street: How fast Mister; what's under the bonnet; can I sit in it please; turbo's as well - WOW!! Me at Japfest This year: How fast Mister; what's under the bonnet; can I sit in it please; turbo's as well - WOW!! EXAMPLE 2: My son, to me, after visiting the toy shop: Dad, can I have the new PS2 game; a new TV; a new DVD and anything else that I haven't mentioned. Me, to my wife, after Japfest: 'Sweetheart', Can I have a turbo upgrade; new fuel lines and a some shiney alloys!! Enough said - Anyone in agreement it's lush cause I was like that at that age...

SupraStar 3000 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I love stories like these Went out to jongleurs (comedy club) in Nottingham a few weeks ago and on the way home I passed a line of late night revellers queuing to enter a club. As the trafic light turned to red and with the window down I could hear a chorus of "ooow nice car" and "great car" etc etc etc.. Made me smile Then yesterday I was talking to a neighbor when his wife came out and said "our friends just bought a sports car like yours". "Don't talk rubish darling, thats a Celica, NOT a SUUPPRRAAA". "I do apologise Ed" he said, "Shes doesn't know what shes talking about ....shhheeeesh" I just laughed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
