I found this on Finalgear.com:

There is a forum for every type of car enthusiast out there…even Chrysler Crossfire fans, which we have managed to piss off recently.

If you read this site, you most likely venture into a forum or six from time to time as well. Typically they are filled with unbridled passion for one make and unequivocal hatred for another. Porsche folks vs Corvette folks, WRX STI vs Evo fans, and Crossfire enthusiasts vs Hooniverse (just kidding…).

Well the folks at Speed have decided to jump into this fray and allow rival forum drivers to put their metal where their mouth is with the launch of a new show called Forum Wars.

Our friend Rob Krider just so happens to be piloting a vehicle for the opening episode. He is behind the wheel of a GT 500 Mustang which lines up next to a Nissan 350Z.
I think the idea of pitting rival vehicles against each other and having it result in tire-smoking, trash-talking, vehicular mayhem is a very good thing…as long as tired internet memes don’t make the journey as well.

The show premieres April 5th on Speed so tune in to see who wins the battle between American Pony and Japanese Samurai.
So we need two things. A member a fast car and someone we hate on.


For driver, my vote is on Nügget, MacGeek, Equiraptor, Quiky or Icebone for the lulz.

For hating, my vote is on the Toyota Prius owners club or the Marinamen.

WHO IS IN? :P

And allready an loud Audi driver seem to hate us soo much, he wants a race.  ;D

Oh hey, can I drive against someone?


I would like to drive against the BMW 5 series owners club, or the Omega Owners of UK.

They have like M5s and Sabine Schmitz
Omega owners is good, just make it a long distance race, they won't make it

 ;D

Should we show them right?   :)

The trouble is here in the UK we have a 70mph speed limit on our motorways which we strictly stick to  ::) ::) ::):'( :'(

Apart from that, bring it on! :D :D :D :D :D ;)

Since he is from Germany, and me too, this shouldnt be a problem.



Only that my 2.5er is slightly slow against either his 3.0l petrol or diesel.

We need someone with a 3.2 or a chipped 2.5 dti.

I had a bit of fun today.  Pee'ed off a beamer driver in his 04 plated 325.  He was on my bumper until I was able to pull over and then sped up to keep with him the entire way down.

Then there was a chav in a Civic type R, amasingly left him for dust at the lights :y

Bring it on I say ;D ;D

This thread means he's upset us somehow? He even said so. Given us a laugh maybe, but, upset. O dear.

I think he means he is upset, probably just got a bill from the audi dealer servicing his car and he has got to remortgage his house to pay it.   ;D ;D ;D

I think we should remember much as we love our Migs they are an old design now & could'nt be expected to keep up with a new M5 etc. but can still surprise us both ways. In a straight line drag i can give a Scooby a run for it's money...it's ahead up to 100, 110 then we're heel snapping a veryt shocked scooby owner. That said a few weeks ago i was totally seen off out of a roundabout by some twin pipe clit sport thing. We have to be realistic. Pete's little MX5 out dragged everything at the last Yorkmeet, it would also out handle us on the twisties...by a country mile, i know, i've had one.
   Still love the comfort & character of the Mig & enjoy every mile i drive it but many mainstream cars are faster/better handling etc. Shame but true. :'(
