  1. ^^Seems the tall and short of it reading between the lines from comments from the powers that be. No one wants to question the decision, just a informative statement as to who is banned and why (in brief), thread locked end of. I also highly doubt banned members are given notice of an impending ban to "clear their desk" allowing them free reign to send abusive pm's, posts etc etc
  2. No one is asking for "justification" of your actions, seems like there is a lot of paranoia in that comment. I am sure we all appreciate the job of mod/admin is a thankless one, but issues such as this just imho create a divide between members and "the team", the information we are asking for is harmless and informative, how can that be so bad?
  3. Sounds pretty cheap to me for a multi stage paint process including specialist paint, regardless of what you want to pay I got quoted similar for just base and clear on a new hr bonnet.
  4. Well that was a quick discussion... Any particular reason why its not going to change?
  5. Its a public forum though who and what rule is pretty harmless surely? We do trust the team, on the most part
  6. Ok, I killed Smudgeon aka Jordan - but I did apologize Wouldn't have got banned for that So how about it Mr Mod Could we get a statement if people are banned, nothing detailed, just to what end they got banned/suspended for?
  7. Ok, I killed Smudgeon aka Jordan - but I did apologize Well thats perfectly acceptable with an apology
  8. I for one think it should be a lot more transparent.
  9. Saw Matt not so long ago, he looked at buying my Zed
  10. If i was cruising the states i am afraid it would have to be the fattest Harley i could get
  11. I do remember thinking at similar speeds abroad, ok corner in this distance, couple of blinks later, BRAKE......

    How is she looking

    I think everyone is chilled and i for one appreciate what people do, doesnt mean i/we have to like it Whilst the op hasnt been back to the topic i am sure he is well aware its not to every ones tastes, but if the question is asked "how is she looking", people are only answering the question, as did you surrounding the lights Just for the record, i am positively happy when certain people didnt like my first 350 as it meant i had got the look i wanted You cant beat a winning formula, grids or the real version suit a zed very well, but your right, plenty of choices that look equally as good iho
  13. This is what i find strange, she does not need a settlement from Porsche, she no doubt is a very very wealthy girl, hence why i can help but think its a lawyer fuelled frenzy as in reality, they will win regardless and whatever the outcome, it still aint bringing her daddy back
  14. It seems to be the way of the world (particularly in the US), everyone wants to apportion blame onto someone else, have you had an accident at work have you been hurt in a road accident blah blah blah there is no accounting for, have you had an accident at work because you were reading a text and not paying attention, perhaps hungover from the night before (probably sill drunk) etc Sure its fair to ask the question, but in reality, what can you expect when said car hits a tree at 90mph+, no one is to blame apart from the driver imho, unless it was mechanical failure that caused the crash. I am not sure how Porsche can test for such a scenario, it would be impossible to test under the exact circumstances, impact speed, angle of impact, condition of car etc Maybe you could say some fire prevention measures could be incorporated, good idea, but if that part had literally gone awol amongst the other debris, what good would that be if it was going off some 100 yards away from the car? Petrol and a spark wont ever be a good combination and its simply unavoidable if the worst case scenario happens, which is exactly how i view the above. Before anyone mentions ev's, if you have never seen a Lipo go up when punctured, you should
  15. Is this not the question that is being asked though, the impact did not kill him, the fire did? By no means playing devils advocate here, to me, this was an accident and a freak set of circumstances that led to the fire, no manufacturer can test every possible scenario of a crash as you say. Its tragic and massively unfortunate, digging it all up though will do no good to Meadow and her future life though imho.
  16. Most other forums I have been on will issue something to say, who has been banned and why, it never contains exacting details just the circumstances, I.e continued use of bad language, threats to other members, fraudulent activity etc and the post was locked to comment. I see no need for the whole secret squirrel thing, it stops the whole he said she said and draws a line under any questions surrounding the ban/suspension.
  17. Seen Busters car many times so if there are any potential buyers, he is being very moddest, its a great buy and pictures dont do it justice, you wouldnt be disappointed if you went to view
  18. Any mentioned its a nice colour
  19. I think Ken is pretty cool, to me is just like one of us, he just loves messing around in cars, but he can do it on a different level because of his money, i dont think he has professed to be the best at anything, he is just having fun
  20. I thought all cars were in some way "tuned/detuned" to coincide with emissions test rpm level. As in my first post, rx7's had an air pump that would engage to suck air into the exhaust to meet emissions regs.
  21. Hearing £4 billion being banded about, thats a large chunk to loose from the balance sheet.
  22. 1.3 million cars affected in the UK according to radio news today (vw, audi & seat) Could this potentially bankrupt them?
  23. Not sure how it could be a genuine Milwaukee Yamaha MotoGp bike as there is no such thing. You might mean the Milwaukee Yamaha from British Superbike though
