So this was the first incident this year in Columbus with a Somali attacking a group of people with a large knife/machete this year? That's not even my point. I'd like to see statistics of what percentage of Somalians are receiving government assistance, along with violent crime rates per capita.

I knew this would set you off. Your PC attitude just got bent out of shape because of one comment.

Cnn.com has it big on their front page... "Attacker was of Somali descent." At least they're calling it how it is and not trying to brush it under the rug. I'm not a racist or anything, but if the vast majority of a race/religion/culture or whatever provide only negatives to society, is there a purpose for them being here?

I have never been a fan of Mustangs unless it was one of the 1st generation Mustangs... Even then, there are other muscle cars I'd choose before that. It's a little Kawasaki 440cc cut and made into a bobber. Not fast by any means, pretty small bike. I like riding the bike but I honestly would rather have a fast/fun car. Just a personal preference with safety aside.

Name was released as Muhammad Ali... I guess he was a Somalian

When are they doing to release the persons name

I wonder how long it will take the media to come out with their identity.

I'll look into the S4's some more. I like the 135i the most though because they're very compact and can make 350+whp cheap. I don't know much about diesels but I do know they last a long time lol. Would maybe consider it, but I'd probably be the dumbass that fills the tank with gas on my way home from the dealer :lolguy: I already have a motorcycle. I actually want to sell it. I enjoy riding it, but I'm trying to stay living in the city and honestly, I just don't trust people enough. I barely ever rode my bike this summer/fall because I currently live in Dublin and all of the foreign assholes that can't drive scare the shit out of me.

They're reporting that the/a suspect pulled the fire alarm at Watts Hall then waited for people to run out then he ran them over with his car.

So if it's conference champs only, then let's say this happens... Virginia Tech beats Clemson Colorado beats Washington Florida beats Alabama Penn State beats Wisconsin Oklahoma wins B12 So then, according to Lauren and everyone else that says "You have to win your conference to get in" have these 5 teams to choose from... Virginia Tech, Colorado, Florida, Penn State and Oklahoma. Now, tell me, does that make any logical sense? This is why you can't have winning your conference as an automatic bid UNLESS there is an 8 team playoff, and even then, there should really be no automatic bids because a garbage team like Florida or Virginia Tech could get in if they have one good game or their opponent (Alabama/Clemson) has an off-night.

Reports are there may be more than one person and one of the suspects had a machete

No thanks lol

Yeah, I guess just the upkeep and maintenance along with if something major breaks concerns me. I'm sure they are well built cars but the only ones I could afford would be 10+ years old and 100k+ miles, so anything could happen... Yeah, I've heard Vettes do better than most people think in the snow, especially with some Blizzaks for the winter. It would really only have to get me through this winter, then I'll be golden. The WS6 would have been ideal to keep, but I was just getting out of the military and starting school full-time and the car was costing me over $500/month between car payment and insurance so I couldn't justify it at the time. Yeah, if the right deal on one came around, I would definitely consider it. How is upkeep on the S4's? I've heard Audi's are pretty bulky/heavy and don't handle too well compared to like a beamer, any truth to that?

Are you trolling or do you really not know how to spell that state?

Oklahoma is the same team as they were week 2. The difference is that the Big 12 is shit. USC actually has gotten MUCH better. I still think Alabama would beat them but it would be something like 34-24 this time around. It's hard to say if this is one of the better Alabama teams. Defensively they're at least as good as they've ever been I think. Offensively they're much different than they've ever been with Hurts at QB. He adds a new threat that Alabama has never had and that's a QB who can make plays with his feet. It's hard to tell if Alabama is THAT good or if they're just a product of playing bad competition in a weak conference. My conference rankings as of now... 1) B1G 2) Pac 12 3) SEC 4) ACC 5) B12 This could all change after bowl season though. Matchups are important in bowl season and the B1G and SEC play by far the toughest games. The Pac and ACC in particular play more G5 teams than anyone. MY playoff top 4 and outsiders looking in... 1) Alabama 2) Ohio State 3) Washington 4) Michigan (will change after Championship week) 5) Wisconsin 6) Clemson (Yes, I think Clemson is VERY overrated) 7) USC 8) Penn State 9) Oklahoma 10) Colorado

Yeah, I was looking at E55's. I'm just worried about if the trans or motors decides to take a shit, how much am I out? Yeah, I've known some people with fast SRT4's. I kinda like the Caliber more than the Neon but I don't know if I could do either to be honest... I'm sure you've priced this out. How much for a new turbo with supporting mods? That's about exactly what I want. I could trade my TL in too. My only concern would be whether I could take the Corvette out at all in the snow because if I buy now and trade my TL in, it would have to be my daily through this winter. My boss said I can take a truck home in severe weather, but I'm talking about even light stuff... I could always not trade my TL in, but I'd rather get rid of it if I could.

When you bought that I remember thinking I wished I had saw it first lol. I'll keep it in mind though :thumbup:

Yeah its just easier to find an affordable WRX vs an Evo. I do like Evo's though

An LS car would be ideal since that's what I'm most familiar with, but part of me wants something different that not many people have (hence MR2). C5z's have been my realistic dream car since before I even had a license though. I do really miss my WS6. I'd consider it but I don't know if I want another F-body. I'm sure if I took it for a test drive I'd re-fall in love though haha

I owned one and it was the worst car I've ever owned and it's not close. I'm sure some are fine and reliable but most are ragged out now and unreliable.

So I tried to be content with my Wrangler and it didn't work out. I want something fast again. I've been out of the "racing" scene for years now and I doubt I get back into it but I miss getting in something fun to drive with some power. I've been looking hard at Toyota MR2 Turbos lately but I drove one today and kinda hated it. No power steering was awful and it wasn't as fast as I expected (forged internals,bolt ons, 20G turbo). I don't need anything crazy fast, but something that has potential at least. Looking for something that can run at least mid 12s at 110-115ish for fairly cheap. I'll be getting a company truck in a few months to drive to and from work and some short errands, so this will be prettt much a weekend "fun" car. Here are my criteria. Pretty broad because I'm pretty much open for almost anything under my budget. <$15k Manual Good aftermarket parts selection Fairly reliable (please no DSM) Some cars I've thought of... Mr2, 350z, g35, WRX, 135i, 1st gen CTS-V

Good luck getting an answer

Lauren deflecting my question... NO WAI
