Hate non petrol heads

[yellowbelly]

I know it shouldn't but It really winds me up when people at work like to try and refer to me as a boy racer simply due to the car i drive.

Like today a colleague who drives a 1.4 206 joked saying on weekends i probably do LRT's (Laps Round Town) now i admit i may have down this when i was younger but i'm 28.

Can never think of a clever/witty comeback quick enough.

Should let it go over my head i suppose

f**k OFF.

Done.

 

[D2501]

Run them over during an LRT? Sorted

Yeah I know what you mean though, when I told people I wanted a 197 I got "gonna be a boy racer with a drainpipe exhaust are ya?" and "bit old to be a boy racer aren't you?" etc etc. V annoying and almost impossible to explain you are a car enthusiast and not a boy racer to people who don't really care about cars!

"At least I'll get around town quicker than you in your 1.4 - irriot."

 

[Weeman]

I used to have a clio, they are still a boy racers car and always will be, 90% of the tards on here are testament to that.

 

[Will.]

"Not a boy racer, im a man racer"

"My car has all the modifications because i plan on taking my car on the track"

"If you have to drive, may as well enjoy it"

"They make these kind of cars for people like me to enjoy"

"Go f**k yourself!!!"

These are my usual remarks

 

[Marv-C]

f**k OFF.

Done.

LOL :lolup:

 

[iimushroomzii]

Atleast you don't get told you drive a hairdressers car, c***s!

Work colleagues often ask me why i own a saxo when i'm:

1. Not a r****d
2. Not a chav
3. Not a student
3. Earn more than £5k year

I normally tell them i got bored with sh4gging their wife & playing with their kids lego, so mess about with this in the garage instead. As a bonus, this type of car appeals more to their 17 year old step daughter ...

I work in automotive, so its a non event.

However this used to occur in my younger days. A cold hard stare does the trick. Say nothing.

Isn't there a forum for 'pipe and slippers' lovers :rasp:

 

[MATT BLACK]

Hes a little bitter at the moment

 

[Sarah]

[Will.]

[Sarah]

Lol no I meant with the OP presumably being male saying he's a girl racer won't help his cause much!

 

[Chili Red]

I used to get the piss taken out of me when I had the Clio, less so with the Meg.

I don't care TBH.

 

[Marv-C]

In the end, they're probably jealous.

Like a few of you on here, I am quite comfortable with who I am and what i like so don't give a sh1t what others think.

 

[Nick172Cup]

Get this at work quite a lot because most of the people I work with are or nearly double the age of me they say all this 'whats the point in modifying your car' etc etc and I just give the usual I'll be using it on track.

The one thing that makes it all a bit ironic is that when you ask what they did in there youth they did the same thing! Guess with age comes beeing a miserable, contradicting b4stard!

 

[Aluco]

My mate knelt on my bonnet a few week back and dented it a tiny bit. Couldn't understand why I was raging. He said "It's only a boy racers soap box racer"
He can't even drive, student cunit.

 

[MarcoB]

Its the people that say they drive everywhere at 80 and get in your car at 60 and they are shitting themselves, reaching for the pussy handle.

Easy tiger, I'm probably double your age and am still a petrolhead.

Age has nothing to do with stupidity here

 

[Aluco]

Lol @ pussy handle !

My mate used to nearly cry when I took him on country roads. Then he'd drive his 1.2 clio as fast as he could round the same corners with bald budget tyres like he was a god. Lunatic.
Never seemed to have any sense of when you should slow down haha.

Its different when you're in control - if you're used to driving being a passenger sucks! I find myself braking when there's no pedal LOL

True, this guy had no clue though haha. It's a wonder he never slid it off the road.

Only messing matey, I think its good that older people are still into there cars! Just unfortunately there are far more older people that aren't and like to take the piss!

 

[Jason_E]

"Jason and his badman clio!" is what I get mostly. They also don't get why I prefer 182's to my car. "But its older what the hell?" etc. etc.

No worries .

Now I have the dilema that I still feel 20 but also feel that I'm too old to be on here

 

[Ronnie R]

Just go, my car would f**k yours up init.

I tend to get, your car is crap - it's french. Make's me laugh when my mate's say it, they don't even own a car.

 

[Aluco]

You're not too old to be on here ! plus it's very accomodating on here for old people.

I mean look at Roy, he's well popular.
