Default who is this....

hey guys, the other day I was driving through dandy and noticed a blue EB on what i THINK were fpv copies in 18" pull outta TTF and onto Frankston Dandy road, trying to catch up to me through traffic.... :togo: anyway, IS this guy on the forums?
Bit of a knob-edd really, had all his windows down, metallica playing full noise, with his DVD screens flipped down and he was the only one in the car! :
REGO was DUMTEB or something like that.
Would have given him the thumbs up if he wasnt too busy advertising his DVD screens., the car looked good though and was wondering if anyone has seen it before.

He now owns a VS Stato... he resigned up to the forums as DUMTEB (before he got banned) as he bought his gF an EB or something.. but I dont think it has the plates.

So....what's the real problem with this guy?

If cruising with your windows down listening to your fave music loud is qualification for being a ****er then there are a lot of them around here............but I guess that's not really news, is it?

I don't have a DVD setup in my car....don't see the necessity. Is it possible to play a DVD without folding down the screen? If not then whose to say he just didn't want to listen to that DVD, rather than a CD. Seems a harsh and unwarranted judgement that was barely worth the effort of posting here either way.

I would say it's due to his driving and the reflection on the club if he is a member.

I don't have DVD either, I'm never in my car whilst stationary long enough to watch anything.

So please explain the difference between having Loud Music Playing when there is only you in the car compared to having Loud Music Palying when you have a passenger?

And I didnt see it posted that he had e-series stickers on his car so how would it reflect badly to the club :

Nice Car - Nice Stereo - Nice Wheels and Show off = Tool hmmmmmmmm thats news to me............ lol

Yeah I dont see what wrong with playing loud music while your the only one in the car. Thats normally when I do play loud music, when theres other people in the car I'm normally talking to them!

Plus Metallica rocks so why not let everyone hear it!

To me sounds like theres nothing wrong here, sounds like your another person who hears loud music coming from a nice car and instintly thinks hoon or ******.

Hmmm... sounds like a tool... but I reckon if we switched the word "Metallica" with "Ministry" he might be on to something.

I think he's referring to the way the guy was driving as if he was top ****** and trying to intimidate him a bit, u always get that with commodore drivers that see u have a nice ford so they try catch up to u overtake u and then give it a bit of lead to show off they're fully sick exhaust! I know id think the guy was a bit of a ****er if he had windows down, dvd and music going as well as effectively trying to make himself look cooler than me by driving like a d**khead!

Waste of a thread really.

Nothing but judgemental comments from those who were not there, and have made assumptions based on the fact that this guy drives with his windows down, and music turned up.

In fact, I can't even see where it states he was driving like a ****er. All it says is that the OP believed the guy was trying to catch up with him in traffic.......for what reason is unstated.

Mod do your thing and put this thread out of it's misery........

I agree, would you rather him doing the club a favour and lapping chapel street? Perhaps ministry would be suited better there.
