Here's a friendly tip.

If you want people to buy your stuff:

1) Take good pictures of it so people are confident in knowing what they're buying.

2) Don't be an asshole to the guy that runs the board, even if he's just been a touch flippant with you.

3) When being an asshole to the guy that runs the board, try using the correct "you're" and "couldn't give a fuck less". The grammar Nazis will own your ass around here.

1) If you're not confident then don't buy my shit.

2) I am not being an asshole, I am being a touch flippant with you.

3) I could give a fuck less about a "grammar Nazi" as well.

You don't need to bump threads, it's not like it fell off the front page or anything.

Also, please stop being an assclown.

Yes, clearly driving an inexpensive car makes him inferior to you. Never mind the fact that he'd run rings around you in it in any contest involving actual driving skill.

The fact that it's inexpensive is beside the point. It's a Miata.

God Sperry just lock the thread already.

Weird, I get different connotations when someone says "it's a Miata".

That was a profound statement of the perfectly obvious. I think you rank past Captain, I'm going to bump you right up to Colonel.

I don't know if it's because I have been on this forum for years or just that I am getting older but, threads like this are really getting obnoxious.

Have you seen a Spec Miata race in person? It's like a destruction derby, without all the sanity.

And you'll get a title as soon as you act retarded enough to earn one.

Best quote I've seen: "Spec Miata is like a bunch of online racers showed up in person, with the same understanding of consequences."

If I could fit in a miata I would love to race one, turbo'ed of course.
Being 6'4" really limits my sports car selection.
