Default Have you ever just felt like giveing up?

I got a bulit H for boost siting in my garage with a sc60 turbo fully bulit head not sleeved might I add. Im not one to brag and tell people what I got except for a select few friends and the people on honda tech. But the word is out and I got straight up 9 second drag cars tryin to call me out. Do you guys ever get this kind of bullshit treatment? Im not buliding my car for other people im buliding it for me. I know I shouldnt let that kind of crap get to me but it does for some reason.

whatever, its not a big deal. Who cares what you are driving. Unless you are driving a 100k-200k car you can't brag to anyone. people in my city brag about having a 300zx, a rx7, a skyline etc. When it all comes down to it the cars all go about the same speed as modded civics, preludes etc. They all cost similar prices, except the hondas lol, they are cheap to mod in comparison, and they all do the same thing. They are all tuner cars so who cares. Like i said, if you are not rocking a 100-200k car i personally could care less. Mclearn F1 FTMFW!!!... of course thats a 1,000,000 dollar car lol

Same stuff happens to me pretty often. One time I parked at a gas station by my house and I got out and thig guy that I've never seen before asks, "is this the blue turbo hatch I keep hearing about?!" I told him "probably not" lol.

As far as getting hated on for no reason yeah thats happened before too. I've had a couple of trucks try to run me off of the road/throw stuff at my car on the highway and I had a slightly modded 350z get in front of me for no reason, in the rain, and slam on his brakes till we were almost both stopped.

I've also had trucks get up beside me and try and race me, when I don't do it they flip me off, accelerate extremely slowly, and then turn on thier hazzards.....

While I'm driving completely normal....

Don't let retarded haters/rednecks get to you.

what do you expect?
you paint rainbows down the side of your car, and people will call you the gay pride mobile, ask that nascar guy.

least they aren't calling you the rainbow warrior.

the rainbow stripes down the side are gay, if i were you i'd get it repainted all 1 color.

we don't need to care what people say. I mean yes, we all take things into consideration, but anyone who has enough time to sit there and look at things other people have and make crap about them obviously doesn't have enough self esteem to go do a damn thing.

I only have a d16, I couldn't be more proud of what Im doing to my car. You have an H..... your like... Jesus in the modern honda day.

Through life you are always going to have people that hate on you, warranted or not.

You might as well do something you enjoy.

whatever man, they're right there in the picture.
he even has it written on the ground next to his parking space!

i say you paint "jamie's gay pride mobile" on your assigned parking space and you're just looking for trouble.

not that there's anything wrong with being gay or anything.

I know -exactly- how you feel. When I had my RB25DET Z31, I used to get people that would ask me what's done to my Z... I'd tell them, and pop the hood, and they would straight up call me a liar and say it wasn't a Skyline engine and such.. -shrug-

Usually when people do stuff like that and keep at it, it's jealousy. You are doing what they can't or are afraid to, and they hate you for it. Therefore to make themselves feel better they will do anything they can to make you look bad.

All I do is never retaliate, laugh at the jokes, and in the end when you're enjoying what you've built, none of the things they've said or done will matter one bit.
