I drove back from Cali from friday-sunday
his parents gave him money, flew to california, bought a bmw, drove back...
oh all on his parents money. what a great accomplishment, high five!
^ dont hate because his parents were sucessful in life and want to give their kid the best advantages possible to be sucessful as well

bahahah. RepsOriginally Posted by Sport1.3
hows that make him successful for going to cali for a car he didnt earn? hmmmm spoiled maybe? i think so.Originally Posted by Sport1.3
and dont speak on behalf of sucessful parents, none of that talk should be discussed here![]()
i dont know who to agree with sport or yogi.
o sh*t, you just divided by 0 didnt you?
He actually sold a car he bought, and used the money to buy the BMW.
but mommy and daddy bought his civic, his 2.5, and his bmw.Originally Posted by simontibbett
plus who the **** drives all the way to cali for a 3 series? m3 or nothin... i mean damn, if my girlfriends 330ci didnt have a her m3 swap in it with a blower, i be damned if i went any farther than NC for that mfer.
Why does it matter who paid for what?Originally Posted by yogi08
Like Sport said, stop being such a hater....
If you were fortunate enough to have your parents help you, would you refuse it?
NO....![]()
I've seen people go to Canada to buy a rare car.Originally Posted by yogi08

Ignorance truly is bliss. fact is, the kid has talent......he's been racing karts/cars since before you grew your first pube hair, and he's still probably younger than you. The car wasnt that expensive. Race prepped cars can be had at pennies on the dollar, especially now. To my knowledge he sold a 2.5rs, which are worth quite a bit of money ....
Stop hating because his parents want to see him take a step further into the racing world. You wouldnt do the same for your children?

yeah, i can understand that though man. but just a regular bmw you can get here in GA?Originally Posted by EJ25RUN
yeahhhhh
the kid has talent? how come ive never heard of him. im by far not the best driver, but im pretty damn good. i started racing wka when i was 9 years old, switched over to 250cc shifter karts from 125cc enduros at one point.Originally Posted by Sport1.3
do you see me bragging about any of my vehicles i own? nooope
2.5rs = 5500-7k (roughly) and thats not "quite a bit of money" actually.
and fawk no, id make my children work for their stuff as my dad did for me.
We'll i've heard of him, and seen him compete......though i've never heard of youOriginally Posted by yogi08
.....what have you done since shifter karts?
i dont see him as a braggart either.....more so excited, i would be excited to
$7k is more than enough to buy you a fully prepped/seasoned IT car. Even if they spent alittle more, E36/325i's are cheap as dirt
do you know him personally? I've met him and his dad, even owned a car they ran solo events in....but i wouldnt say i know him. WHo are you to say what he has and hasnt earned?
I've never had the luxury of my parents being able to afford to buy me things like this....i've had to bust my @ss and earn everything i have....but you know what. My parents would have given me EVERYTHING if they had the chance, and they would have been damn proud to do so. I honestly hope to one day be able to provide for my kids like his parents do......your hateraid has expired, time to stop drinking

I can see Parents supporting them in their endeavors to a certain extent.
I seriously don't understand what the big deal is and why all the need for hate..
Every normal parent wants their child to have more than they did.
Growing up, I never went w/out and had everything I needed and wanted and more.
My parents worked hard to be able to do so.
I'm doing the same for my children and I don't think it's unreasonable to provide for your kids if you're able to.
My parents did not undermine my ability to have work ethic or ambitions, if anything, they fostered it by showing me what hard work and education brings.
You can't get mad because you weren't as fortunate or your parents chose not to spoil you, per se. Different strokes for different strokes. You are no better than the person who has who gives you shiit for not having when you hold grudges because of material shiit.

Sometime parents work harder, so their kids dont have to go through the same rigors they did in life to be successful at something. So, his parents bought him a car, a car that he plans to use to further both his dreams and his career.....wouldnt, as a parent, you want this for your child? to see him succeed, be proud that you helped in making his dream a reality......So he didnt work a 65 hr work week for 3 years to be able to afford it......did your parents make you work full time, while in school and start charging you rent when you turned 16? no, so does that not make you spoiled according to your terms?

Also by law you cannot work a full time (legal job till you're over 18 (some jobs bend this rule as I know)) But while I was in college I did work a full time job not because my parents made me either I wanted to earn my own to prove to my parents that I was worth their time and money they were spending on my education.
And there is no malice in my words I'm just stating a point. Which is if he's not putting forth any effort in the endeavor he is pursuing then he's just in it for the free ride at mom & dad's expense.
(Nothing against you personally Matthew just stating opinions of my own)

now that you mention it, i dont see him braggin about cars he owns either... hell i dont even like the kid, but all eh did was come in here and give himself a welcome back. which, by the way, i found humorous.Originally Posted by yogi08
