    Sorry you don't know I used HS to not only get 21 college credits from AP courses, but also spent time in vocational automotive training course (similar to UTI idea) for free.

    For once, I agree with equate.

      But you didn't even bother to ask whether or not equate has the credentials to form such an opinion??? I guess it's OK because he agrees with you, right?

      As much as you discount the knowledge of people who didn't finish college - I'll return the favor. You're a HS auto tech drop out. Don't act like you can roll with engineering majors or that you have anything incredibly valuable to bring to the table.

        Equate knows cars, even if he doesn't know how to not drive them recklessly, and is in automotive school.

        I do roll with engineering majors.

            If it's okay because equate "knows cars", what's your take on MR anderson?

              He's typically ignorant, overly enthusiantic about what he knows little about, and hypocritical, as links and quotes below will display perfectly.

              My gripe with Josh is that he has no basis to talk shit about the Veyron. He reads things on the internet without thought or understanding or analysis. And to prove this point, let's go to this post:

              Your comments have been noted and filed away under "shit people say about things they don't know anything about".

              Well see, he's probably driven both a McLaren F1 and a Veyron, along with having been present during the design and engineering stages of the cars.
              To say that his response to the Bugatti now is ironic and hypocritical would likely be accurate.

              Hence, my annoyance of someone like Josh with no real critical thinking ability or insight talking shit about a car... when it is quite clear he can't think for himself or even remember what his opinions have been.

                      You bastard! we are never going to be BFFs now, how dare you say I drive recklessly!

                      When have I ever "drove" recklessly? I can't even think of anything except my m3, which was hardly reckless. I guess I do have a few speeding tickets, but I don't see how that constitutes as reckless.

                          I was taking a highway off ramp, suggested speed 25mph, I hit it at 55mph. Two thrids of the way through the engine starts sputtering on me. I was really pissed off because I thought something broke. Look at my gas gauge and its on empty.. wtf? Exit the curve and it goes back up to 1/4 tank haha.

                          Thinking about it, it was a right curve so all the fuel must of sloshed to the driver side starving the prepump on the passenger side.

I guess this proves without a doubt that I am the worst driver ever, how do I even have a licence? Maybe by the grace of you? Are you pulling strings for me? Don't like, I need to know the truth! Man I just know how bad it sucks to have a car that doesn't body roll, I really like granny driving around curves going 6mph with a line of cars behind me. HOW DARE I go so fast!
