Hey guys, we may not always agree on this site, sometimes we have been known to be short and rude with each other, there has even been some car and people bashing go on here, but after reading what I just read from the Jap Crap site, we should all be proud for who we are and how we conduct ourselves here, for the most part like true gentlemen. If our hobby ever had to resort to this site being like that one....I would never take my cars out of the garage from shame at the idea that someone may realize I was part of that hobby. We have our moments here, but this is a good example of what we have never been or never will be. Everybody from this site should be proud.

I only read halfway and had enough!! Then these guys wonder why they are discriminated against when they come blowing into a show! I attended a show in support of one of the local highschools and left after about 20 min. when this language and vulgar music was all that could be heard.

There is always something on the Houston Local News about the import guys.I usually hang out at a James Coney Island with about 75 others on a bad Saturday and 150 on a good one.We have had to get the Police to remove some of these people numerous times due to driving crazy,There is a bad accident on the news usually once or twice a week from these guys street racing, they are playing music so loud and nasty it even makes me BLUSH!! and you would swear I was in the NAVY for At least 4 years at times only! These are some "WEIRD FOLKS" so to say where I come from.The Management at James Coney Island now have 3 police officers patrol on bikes,and have every road out of there cornered in case one will try and run from them.They now write $200.00 tickets for loud music! unless it's 50's music and not too loud which is cool with me.We are beginning to see more and more of these cars in the Houston Area,most are part of some gang or another.If you do not carry a concealed weapon around most places here you are NUTS.There has been a couple of classic car hijackings around also but on the South side of Houston.I hate to say it but if they try to hijack mine they are gonna regret it,and I may regret what I may have to do also to protect myself,I keep a sharp eye out when in a Classic and my daily driver.And You guys thought Chicago and New York were BAD.You do not want to vacation in Houston.

Guys these are the enthusiasts in my age group. (Teens to mid 20's) TOTAL A$$HOLES!! I do not know alot of guys my age that really like muscle cars. It is a shame. These pukes watch far to many movies. To bad to hear about those kids though.

As far as the behavior and the way members carry themselves on this site it is the best I have seen. (www.boss302.com is good as well.) I am a member of "other sites" and the way people talk on them shows their immaturity and lack of real understanding of the hobby. Most are not real car lovers. You should all be proud for what you have done for the good of the hobby. I can't tell you all how much I have learned in the year that I have been visiting this site. Thanks.

Matt,
That was a no-brainer! LOL I really wasn't offended by the talk because I deal with that attitude all the time.
