You should place your blame or ill will towards the sour grapes that screamed "rules." Hint - go back and read this cancerous thread.

Don't direct it towards me, I mean you have the set installed on your car BECAUSE I found and posted that set for you.

I could give two shits about anything you bought or decide to sell...

I don't trust those janky dealership. When I was first shopping I went to one and it was janky as hell... Then I ended up finding one at an Acura dealership and went for it.

Monkeytrucker you're the kid that dumps the whole plastic pumpkin of candy in your bag on those people-less door steps on Halloween!
I'll be sure to post pics of them all as the years progress, being one of the few members that have four sets of A-Specs...maybe I'll curb a pair on purpose and give you both the link to eBay so you can shit yourselves knowing they'll be bought for more than anyone paid for a set. You'll see pics of them re-painted in copper and white, and you can pound fucking dirt for all I care.

Piss off already about it. I got a great deal on 4 sets. Plenty of members had a chance to do the same. Get over it.

"Oh no, the re-seller that we all bought them form had the nerve to buy 20 sets...how dare he. Nineteen other re-sellers would've had the chance to rape us all. Gee thanks!"

You guys cry and shit about it in here. These threads (rambling) are cancer to the community and reflects poorly overall to the forums. Can't imagine some Google search results when potential new members see results of the tripe posted in these "rambling" threads.

Seems to be more of you guys mutually servicing one another with "thanks" and post counts.

Played hooky from work this afternoon and went to the kart track. Was my first time racing in the electric ones which I found different and not quite as fun as the gas ones. Still a riotous hoot but the wheee of batteries just isn't the same as the purr of an engine.

My neck and back will be sore tomorrow, I can already feel it.

Then went to Hooters for dinner and let's say the food was the highlight. x2

Hope you all have a pleasant weekend, you cancerous piles of mutually servicing tripe.

There's an electric go kart place here in town I've been meaning to check out. Apparently they hit up to 75km/h (47ish mph) or some shit. The race track is inside a warehouse, hence why the electric motors. At least it allows for year round karting.

K1? No, this place here is called Speeders.

I actually got t-boned on a gas powered go kart. They go much slower though (different place)- I'd say they are limited to no more than 25mph. Just a tease. But fuck did the impact hurt. I spun out and a buddy purposely plowed into me at top speed. I dunno what he was thinking because we both got hurt. Mother fucker.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. Sometimes I'm like "fuck, I just want to sleep!! "

So then I bust a nut as fast as physically possible, turn over and go to sleep. Apparently that's not very romantic. Who knew?

Oof. I can't fuck around with the 'Quils any more. Ny* knocks me out but I don't get any rest, and Day* messes with my brain. Start hearing voices and shit and I walk around feeling like a zombie.

When I get sick now, I just power through it like a grandpa... Jim Beam and OJ. Sometimes together.


And holy fuck. I've got bruises on my shoulder blades from strapping in to the karts. WTF?!?

I am a sad little man, and am ashamed.

As much as I've always wanted a 6mt Type S, I do really enjoy my TL for what it is. If I had a chance to change up, at minimal cost to my pocket book, I'd do it. But in this case I'm not gonna lose sleep over it. Cars come and go. I'm sure I'll find another.

Thing is, the A-spec kit can't be swapped from the base 06 to the Type S. The bumpers are different. I have the Type S rear lip on my TL, to accommodate my exhaust, but the previous owner had to chop up the rear bumper in order for it to work. I didn't know that at the time of purchasing. Oh well.

Lol that thread is hilarious. You have a guy, with at best, a high school diploma, arguing with two lawyers who not only spent an eternity being put through the ropes in post secondary, but now eat, breathe and shit this legal stuff on the daily.

I bet he's scared now that his mom can take his ILX away

I did however find my next car while at the DC Auto Show. As soon as I sat down in the 2016 RC F I knew we were meant to be together. I told my wife to fully expect to see this car in our garage in the near future.

I personally really like the RC350. Or the RC-F

Yeah, it may not be able to touch the M4 in terms of performance, but I think it's a sexy beast with plenty of power, to boot. I really like he interior also.

Yup, edited the post to the correct model. It just feels like nothing I've ever sat in before. Like you said I love the interior, it's so driver centric. I would have gotten pictures but I left my phone in my car

As much as I always wanted to stay within the Honda family, if the TL and I ever part ways, the next car (after the s2k of course) would be a Lexus- probably an IS350 F Sport

I agree. I sat in a lot of cars on Saturday and that was the only one I sat in and felt something. Hopefully when I test it, it lives up to the same feeling I had from just sitting in the damn thing

Ok, so calling someone out for being a piece of shit for taking advantage of the same community that is helping you isn't allowed? This is fucking ridiculous.

I hope you're banned.

NEVER did I state I'm selling them here on Acurazine and I asked more than once for members NOT to PM or contact me about them. Added, I've stated numerous times I'M USING THEM ALL FOR PERSONAL USE.

You're just being an ass...for no reason. You wanted a rise out me and nothing more. You're a troll.

What's fucking ridiculous is you and your "comrades" are nothing but useless banter in the forums...especially in 3G. And you guys often get the blind eye from mods...which only encourages your behavior.

At this point, I'd consider your behavior towards me harassment...and VERY unwarranted.
