clio turbo after porsche carerra

[KungFuSpaghetti]

If you'll read the thread properly, you will see that on more than one occasion I do not deny driving like that, primarily I objected to it being video'd for two reasons, it may get the OP in trouble, and it encourages others to do the same.

Do you drive around constantly with a camera on in the car, or film your spirited drives?? Or did the OP go out with camera looking for someone to find??? If its not slightly worrying why has the video been removed by the OP?

FYI doing silly speeds on the autobahn if its de restricted is legal, however it has to be done safely, If you are caught tailgating, undertaking etc etc, you can still be locked up for dangerous driving. And being passed at 140 mph by a fat german in a E55 mercedes, and continuing to do 140 mph, while he dissapears away is not racing, that my friend is the de-restricted autobahn.

This video, clearly showed (as it was being filmed) that he set off purposefully to catch the porsche, if he had simply been popping to tesco's for a pint of milk, i doubt it would of been video'd.

Yes speeding down the road back from Brussels is also stupid as being caught at 105 mph not liong after that once got me a 500 quid fine and 2 weeks of no license, That was ten years ago now. Since that day I amended my ways, making mistakes is a great way of learning. Its also worth pointing out, that on that road and other motorways there are not round abouts, that people can suddenly appear from.

I have learnt over time, that this type of driving on public roads, can often and will often end up getting people into trouble or leading to an accident. No one here is trying to preach or be a hypocrite, merely pass on some of the experiences they have had, to the younger members of this forum. But should people choose to ignore this advice then fine, by all means carry on.

My sincerest appologies Weeman, I just asumed from your verbose bleatings and righteous indignation that you were above this kind of behaviour and were taking from the lofty heights of your soap box.

Maybe if you had said the above before ranting on about how in the wrong the OP is you'd come over as more sincere and less of a... well, backtracking hypocrite who's now having to justify himself due to being caught out as the aforementioned and looking a bit silly.

Passing on experience is a good thing, perhaps some tact and honesty wouldn't go amiss next time? Put in context of having "been there done that" it comes over a lot differently, would you not agree?

if I am soooo rightous and wrong why has the OP removed the video from youtube?

Did you read my comments, I never personally attacked the guy for driving like that, never said he was an arse etc etc, The majority relate to the vid being posted, and that has been removed, so clearly as other evidence on this thread has revealed, people can be prosesucted using such evidence. I also stated that it is not the best way to advertise a forum. Do you not agree with those points? Imagine for one second, if that video had ended in an accident, and was still posted.

:lolup:
I did cos all the bitchin.

Probably because it's illegal and hypocritical idiots are getting on his case. The only difference between you is that he filmed it.

... oh and that you got caught for doing it, but rather than explain that and use it as a life lesson you would sooner ram your views down people's throats and cast judgement. If I hadn't have found you bragging about racing someone, I dare say you would not have mentioned getting banned for doing the very same?

LMAO at Weeman getting owned by KungFuSpagetti...

as I said, f*cking hypocrites...

You havn't read most of this either.

Read it again, I do not say that I don't or havn't done it, My ARGUEMENTS ON THIS THREAD RELATE TO IT BEING VIDEO'D!!!!!! And the impression it would give to a third party viewing this forum. Go back please, read posts, My comments are regarding the above and the potential prosecution. if its ok, and perfectly normal why is the video still not there?? can you answer that one for me?

 

[seb]

dam, missed the vid. was it any good?

 

[Pearl_Black]

lol @ CS police!

take a break for god sake, we dont own nippy cars to drive them slowly and not have a thrash against another car now and then. Its a bit of fun, the video was hardly on a busy road.

Lighten up a bit haters

 

[Gally]

Wall and head again Weeman?

 

[Gally]

It was crap and he didn't catch the porsche.

 

[seb]

ah fair enough then.

 

[Weeman]

No, thats it, I shall give up.

It appears the people of CS think its more than acceptable to Video your spirited driving because the road was quiet.

What I will say is to Turbolee, who has removed the video, and clearly although he hasn't stated, because he himself can see the potential downsides. So well done to the OP, it just appears everyone else on the defence have not noticed this for themselves.

Drive how you want, race what you want, Don't post it up for the world to see when its illegal, is that sooo hard to grasp lol

Whats going on in here? What have I missed?

Summary?

Keeping up with a C4S is pretty impressive in a clio TBH

Call me a cynic, but that almost made me vomit You care so much about the image of the club and it members that you would seek to have something like this removed? Have you ventured into off topic recently or looked at your avatar message? Neither promote a warm, welcome, open minded club community do they?

Your reasons could not be more transparrent, you simply like to play martyr.

Lee removed the video because of people's comments, not because he thought what he did was morally wrong, if you believe that then god help you lol.

Yes, I removed it.

Thankfully ClioSport can't host videos. Or then we might have an issue.
Several of us (admin) have direct and indirect connections to the police if i ever saw anything bad enough i'd report it.

" because he himself can see the potential downsides"

Where have I mentioned Morals? I'm not taking the moral high ground. You seemingly have turned this into a personal vendetta against me for some reason, have I done something to upset you?

As I have said numerous times, my arguement was that the video could lead to prosection, and videos such as these were the reason that driving tales was once removed from this forum, can you remember that??
