lmao...just read my damn quote, where the HELL do you see me saying awd is the best for dragging? the only thing i DID say awd was good for, is rallying... so just because you don't read properly, don't naturally assume, itz obvious that FR is the best, that's not a question, however, awd is still a little better than FWD, first of all, if it was same power, awd would get a head start, 2nd of all, FWD's are pretty much near impossible to reach a 10 second drag time, even if you had all the power in the world, you can't get it down onto the ground...

 

serious? i never knew there were AWD civics...that would be fun to drive... =)

 

and about the jap/japanese thing... jap is just a shorter way of calling japanese for me... i had no clue about the historical context or w/e...but i'm not going to change the name, mainly because i doubt there are many japs on this forum if any at all, secondly, i think in today's world, we are all pretty open...it is not really a RECOGNIZED racist name, like n**ger, and i think jap people, will understand, itz nothing offensive, and nothing meant to be offensive... i think talking about wwii is overdoing it a bit...just cuz nobody cares...thats my whole point... i don't think anyone cares, jap people dont' care, itz just a short form, like chin for chinese, white is one syllable so nobody bothers you get the point...

 

Just stop before the hole gets any deeper.

 

deathstryfe

i take offense to you calling me chin

you are a moron and should stop before you dig yourself a hole you can't climb out of

deathstryfe.."jap" its not a short form..it's racist..if you call one of us ***** or chin i will guarentee you that you will regret saying that. I will let you go considering you do NOT know what it means, but I'm telling you now that there is a fine line between complaining about something and being racist. I hope you will keep that in mind next time you post. Do some reserach on the words you use before you use em = think before you talk.

When people call me a cracker I get offended, so I can see when others get reffered to with context that was related to/or is related to a racial meaning to get offended as well. It only makes sense.

Even though I am mixed Canadain Native I still get called a cracka! Im more of a toasted cracka.

 

i think this is just a misunderstanding gone totally wrong... he prob just posted that in the title because he was in a hurry and like all of us, we use a lot of short abbreviations, especially when talking online... and then in realizing what he did and trying to explain himself he probably just used some bad choices for words...

 

that's what started it ralliart.. his name i can care less..but the way he put it in that quote bugs me..

 

Well, lets stop the racist talk and back to the JAPANESE Lancers shall we?

 

I think culture in general has gotten to the point where it is too sensitive to begin with anymore. Everything you say has to be politically correct or someone gets pissed off. Everyone just needs to have a beer chill the F' out and relax. It's just a word people and if things bother you about it then, maybe you need to get a higher level of confidence about yourself. No 2 people will ever understand each other get over it. I have had people call me some racist remarks but rather than get pissed and mad I let it blow over. There's really no point to going through life mad at everything and if something bothers you then you either avoid it or live with it. There are always going to be ignorant people in the world so get over it and deal....This is the stupid BS that starts wars between religions and such and we don't need people bringin that crap here...Everybody just suck it up accept that everyone does not have the same connotation to every word that you do and Chill the F' out. Man talking about thread drift....

heck if it really bothers people....everyone just appologize and make up...I did it when I realized I was wrong, and maybe you guys need to also! This is a car board last time I checked...so lets keep it that way.

yup there are awd civics... but i think they have very crappy engines... if i eve find ot mroe ill post...

as for the racial slurs... c'mon.... its over i already said my piece, this is just the nature of the beast... out of everyone who is offended their will be that someone else who will say their piece, and i agree its racist reffering to people such as that, sure it sucks to be politically correct, but when you live in a world where you may get shot because you looked at someone the wrong way, what else can you do....? you just gotta respect other people...

ok ok ok bak on topic once again.....

Japan has many cars that have never heard the pleas of the north american shores.... one day though hopefully we can taste all those fruits, till then the internet is the closest place we have to check out all those cool cars from Japan, UK, Germany, US, Korea.... and sooo on =-)

-joe
