Ever wondered what happens when Jap cars try to follow M3s?

No injuries, just a very bent Mitsubishi!!

Driving the M3 almost feels like cheating, it goes, stops and turns so well!!!

The word "Jap" is pretty offensive.

The pole was a plastic flexible one so it just bent over luckily.

I have more pics but it was my friends car so not sure if he will be happy with them on here. Another mate came off his GSXR750 at the same spot but he was fine, his bike is parked behind my M in the backgroud there.

"Jap" is offensive?

Does that mean I should be offended with "Aussie" or "Oz"?

I assume this is an American thing, it is accepted as an abbreviation in Australia, no offence intended!

The M3 was good for drying out the track.

What happens when the M3 follows the GTR? Oh yea, it can't keep up. Also, "Jap" is offensive.

I'll tell you what is offensive. I've just installed some new software and I can install it in American or International English.

What the chuff is American? You cant change some S's to Z's and drop a few U's and pretend its your own language you know!

I want English Bl**dy English if you dont mind. I'm neither American nor International (and definately NOT European). In fact, if I had it my way, it would be installed in Yorkshire English ayup tha knows me ole mucker. By eck.

Sorry, lol, little rant there (in good humour, we love you Yanks really. Oops, can I use that term?).



PS> Ozzies is fine as are the people themselves, without em London wouldnt have any bar staff at all.
