Have you ever seen anyone asking how much performace gain they get from new tail lights?
2. You may not care about someone's gender, but to say "He blah blah" when he is a SHE is RUDE...partucilarly when the person has a screen name like "cheekybabe85". If ur not sure, ASK the person- there's nothing wrong with that.
3. Your grammar is just as bad as hers and probably as bad as anyone else's on this forum...
"because Altezza add 50kw at the treads right??"
- never start a sentence with because.
- comma between "treads" and "right".
- The SI unit for power is Watts, represented by a W, not w.
"He said he wanted his car to "kick ass" I'm interested in how altezzas achieve this..."
- either put an "and" before the "I'm" or end the sentence.
"And as for your other post, you said..."
- never start a sentence with "and"- it is a joining word the same as "but" and "or".
"loss of attention to detail "
- I believe that's "Lack of attention to detail"
While what I've just done probably has a go at every member of the forums, it is necessary to demonstrate your hypocricy. We don't bother correcting each other on spelling, grammar and sentence structure- its pointless and often rude. How do you like me pointing out all those grammatical errors?
4. You are STILL yet to make a useful post on this thread and that's just plain annoying. You haven't even tried to change the topic of the thread to something useful. All you've done is bitch. At least "Thread stealing" often results in interesting and useful conversation. This nonsense causes nothing but the demise of fordforums.
5. Should you continue this line of behavior in this or any other thread, I will suggest to the moderators that you be banned. We are here to teach or be taught. If you aren't here for either of those reasons then you shouldn't be here at all.
Is that logical enough for you?

Well done I say, you have used logic and common sense to end this, I'm quite impressed and gracefully admit defeat.
And on a side note, I honestly could not care less about people correcting my errors, if it lifts the use of the english langauge on a forum, I'm all for it.
Remember, this is the internet, anyone who gets overly annoyed by other peoples comments should really look at getting a life.
I will admit that I was wrong to post my original statement, oddly enough, I don't recall doing so. I'm starting to think more and more every day that net access should have a breathalyser function, but being the kind of person I am and having a history of high school debating, I sometimes get carried away and only see my chance for a win in any arguement.
So on that note (I will use caps below to highlight this part, I'm not shouting, simply making my apology more noticable)
I HEREBY APOLIGISE FOR MY PREVIOUS POSTS IN THIS THREAD AND THE THREAD-THEFT THAT FOLLOWED.
I APOLIGISE FOR MISJUDGING CHEEKYBABE'S SEX AND BLAME HAVING NOT MET MANY FEMALES INTERESTED IN CARS ( note, I see nothing wrong with this and am glad to see more females getting involved in the car scene, instead of acting like eye-candy at shows).
I APOLIGISE FOR BEING AN ASS, ALTHOUGH I HAVE MY OPINION OF ALTEZZAS, I AGREE THAT I SHOULD RESPECT THE OPINIONS OF OTHERS AND NOT BE SO QUICK TO JUDGE.
YOURS SINCERLEY
