Another H2Oi Video... worth a watch.

[C4 A6]

This is why you have no friends.

You say it like I care that you know nothing about my life

[Bsaint]

You say it like I care that you know nothing about my life

Another one of your key problems,

You probably should care what people think. You won't get very far in life with your attitude or mindset.

Goodluckwiththat

I don't mind his trolling,



I'm a lot smarter then he is



he's bumping my thread allowing more and more people to see the video.

[C4 A6]

I'm a lot smarter then he is

Okay.

[TheBurninator]

I'm a lot smarter then he is

Not sure that is something to be proud of

[C4 A6]

I find it hilarious that I rag on VWs and instead of ragging on Hondas you guys jump straight to personal attacks. So who exactly is the bigger douche then?

[Bsaint]

Not exactly hard to do

Fixed for you

You are entitled to your own opinion, just like we are...

It's not a personal attack when we gather information and opinions based on your actions and what you have chosen to share with us. I told you in the beginning to put down the shovel and stop digging your hole. You didn't listen.

Do yourself a favor and just stop.

The bigger douche is the kid posting from his mom's basement who has no real world experience, and apparently also no experience with social interaction outside of the internet.

Watch out, we got a badass with a twincharged GT500 over here! Don't mess, he's actually left his basement once!

[alerxovawo]

MOAR videos! LESS C4 A6!

Still once more than you!

I enjoyed the video, and I've enjoyed some of you older stuff on Vimeo as well.

Why do you feel the need to rag on VW's? Sounds like you have a bit of growing up to do.....

[C4 A6]

I don't think it stems from the brand itself as it does the people that drive them (which is also the reason why I hate the Honda "scene".) Most, not all, people that I meet who drive VWs are those douchetard skinny jeans slam stretch stance poke flush bro flatbill cap people. That, and the fact that I despise my Audi and its reliability/maintenance costs.

Also how everyone on here seems to taut VW as the best automaker of all time and it's fun to watch those people get their panties in a bunch whenever I post.

Well, maybe you should make an effort to actually engage in conversation with some of those people you apparently judge by what they wear and how they choose to mod their car and you might find that you have something in common with them. You both love cars.

I have a very low tolerance for doucebagery, but I like to try and give people the benefit of the doubt until they prove that they are in fact a douchebag.

[slide13]

This is why you have no friends.

Wrong, i am his friend!

[slide13]

hang where?

at the arcade? maybe the friday night football game? perhaps the roller rink?



*not sure if kids still do any of these things but you get what i'm saying..

i'm talking about the track. Once your able to break free from your skinny jean, fix your slow POS called VW, me and C4 A6 will meet you at the track. where do you want to race, nurburgring or laguna seca?

PS, stretched tires aint gonna help you at the track. so you might as well start looking for a real car 'bro'

[Krazee]

Because I'm the only one with cajones enough to say, "No, this show (H2Oi) sucks because it's less about cars and more about being drunk for a whole weekend" and not "I applaud you guys for this" because it's apparently cool to act like Jersey Shore trash all weekend and use a common INTEREST of cars as an excuse to do so?

FWIW, I like OP's production, but I don't like his choice of venue to cover.

Unfortunately, this view is perpetuated by the minority of idiots at the show. Despite what many pictures and videos show, the week and weekend IS about the cars and the people. It is actually MORE about cars than drinking, and yet people prefer to advertise their general lack of common sense. It isn't cool to act all "Jersey Shore" all weekend, but with newer, younger enthusiasts showing up each year, it is bound to happen. While you, at 18, may be more wary and mature than your peers, fact is, there is a large majority of people that can't wait to get away from family to let loose. Call it the "College Freshman" mentality that affects the sheltered youths across the country.

Fact is, the older we get, the fewer weekly or late night meets we can attend. By extension, you see, meet and hang out with your automotive friends with far less frequency. 7 years ago, I'd meet with people every Thursday night. That no longer happens - fact of life. So everyone I hung out with this weekend were people I may have see 3-4 times over as many months. And THAT is what this show is about, maybe right after the cars, maybe even more so. It is reconnecting with people you do not get to see on the regular, because life gets in the way.

It all boils down to who you hang out with. The house I rented had great people, people you Tom, would get along with. Sure, there was drinking involved, but all 12 of us stayed in the house, didn't drive and didn't disturb anyone.

Remember, much like you try to change the perceptions of Honda owners and drivers here, don't judge a show by a few knuckleheads.

Bsaint - awesome vid. I have always admired your pictures.

The Racing and High-Performance Tire, Using the tire to Tune for Grip and Balance, Paul Haney, 2003, co-published by SAE and TV Motorsports
pp.99-101

Selected quotes from an interview with Jim Hall and Brian Redman. Racers from the '50s and '60s:

Jim: “We had started runnin' skid-pad tests, just going round and round on the skid pad. We got good at it and we found out we could balance the car this way. It was a little bit more technical than we could figure out. It would go up to 0.98 Gs one way and only 0.92 Gs the other way. So Firestone told us their tire was built to run on a 7-inch wide rim. I had built some modular wheels and we could vary the width by what mid-sections parts we used. We'd run the tires they gave us on a 7-inch rim and maybe an 8 and a 9 too. The wider rims made the sidewalls stiffer and instead of running a 0.95 average G you'd run a 0.99. So of course we put them on 9-inch rims. Well, we'd go to the next race and the Firestone guys would look and them and say, "We didn't design those tires to run on a 9-inch rim. We better build a new tire.‟ They'd add an inch to the tread. They'd do them quickly too. They can build prototype tires in a hurry. In a couple of weeks they'd have another tire. And we'd run on a 9-inch rim and a 10 and maybe an 11. And we'd find it was better on a wider rim, so it would happen all over again. In a matter of less than a year we went from those narrow little Dunlop Green Spots to a tire that was almost double the width. So that's what happened with me on tires. In the middle '60's, probably '64 or '65, Firestone took us from less than 6 inches of tread width up to 12 inches.”

Paul: “Just because you kept skidpad testing them on wider rims?”

Jim: “Right.”

Brian: “Speed on the skidpad is speed around the racetrack”

Jim: “Cornering speed is the key to everything. You can have more horsepower but you got to stop it at the other end. But if you can leave the corner just that much faster, you carry that speed all around the racetrack. The whole thing is cornering speed, basically.”

[slide13]

doesn't anyone else read my posts? how can i make them more noticeable?


also how do i post pictures of my honda, so that you VW homos can see what a real car looks like??

No, unlike you, I'm not a bottom feeding troll taking handouts from mom and dad that wastes his time away posting on an internet message board.

[IGotVDubbed]

Good video no doubt, it must be true, Euro guys trash each other, as a former Honda guy, only on Euro forums do I see so much trolling and ignorance. We all come here b/c we share a common hobby and love for our vehicles, not to slanger each other, I'm pretty sure there's a forum just for that, pretty sure this one isn't it,lol...

[red16vdub]

I know this is TCL and stuff like this never does well, but I figured I'd leave it here, hopefully some will enjoy it.

classic c4 a6 no life post

[Subwoofers]

Everyone is mad. I'm not mad.

[BigSkyGLI]

Video itself was good. I personally hated the song, but it's just not my type of music.

Missed H20 again this year. For me it was all about just sitting in a lawn chair on the strip and watching car after car roll by. That was 100% more fun than the show. As someone said, the sheer number of modified cars is astounding.

I will go again. In my OEM+ Mk2 16v

Classic on my dick 24/7 post

it's too easy. notice how everyone does it? it's cause you ****ing suck at life. guarantee you're a virgin who will live a steve carell 40 years of solitude, stuck on car forums "riling people up about volkswagens because it's entertaining" and figuring out translations for whatever japanese car your dad moves on to in the future, while road tripping around with your dad in his integra acting like you're some future track star.

your life sucks, you have no social life, which is clear since you made a crying post asking for blue cars cause your life is so blue. just leave. sign out. no one gives your opinions any bit of legitimacy. i've been on here since i was 14 years old; i've seen it all. you're not a special star. no one likes your 'unique' opinions, it has nothing to do with what anyone drives or what brands they like.

nobody likes you, your posts, your dad's car, the fact that you're here so often, the fact that you know how to type, the fact that you ever found vwvortex, nothing.

okay, back to mid-terms.

I ain't mad - I think someone is about to win the internet. Forrealdo

I love how you put so much effort into flaming me yet claim to not care at all.

And I don't give a **** about join date, and neither should you. You're 23/24, great. Still a youngin' compared to many here.

[Spiller337]

Who said it has anything to do with drinking the whole weekend?

There was like 30 or so meets each day. People cruised the strip all day and met up in various lots, saw cars and ideas they've never seen before, got to meet new people, see some cars in person that they've only seen online or in magazines and even talk to the people who built them.

Then at night, obviously some choose to go out and drink. It's a vacation. it's ocean city. It was more like 70% about the cars, 30% going out and having fun, and 100% about FUN.

And when you have tens of thousands in attendance, of course you get the occasional douchelords. But they don't make up the majority.

I'm sorry you can't understand that not everybody there was slugging beers 24/7.

You consistently sound like you always have a stick up your ass or something. Afraid that if you ever showed up to one of these events, people would recognize you and ridicule you or something?
