Rennteam's member insulting remarks(quote)
#37
I think I raced Ahmed back last year in Bahrain at the largest organised shootout in the Middle East and put on him and his yellow 996TT 9FF (not with the current package) about 15 seconds during a one lap sprint race, I can check the records. He came positioned in in the mid-teens while my crappy Protomotive 993TT car (no sequential and no LSD at the time) came first among street cars on the track event at less than 1 Bar. There were about 40 cars in the sprint race. It was not the driver who won, as this was my first time ever at that track and there are much better drivers out there.
I can just tell Ahmed that he is welcome to come and race me anytime with his 9FF, just no drag strip, straight line acceleration or track, whatever, up to 200kph (my aerodynamics are a real handicap beyond that). I am in Dubai and live 300 meters from the Autodrome. My car is almost stock compared to Markski's.

And by the way, it is time the idiotic comments about camels and Middle Easterns stop, show some respect to other cultures. I don't understand how the moderators have not deleted the posts, this is supposed to be an international forum, otherwise ban internaitonal IPs from posting or maybe we should be asked to go elsewhere... The same applies to Rennteam, but I don't post there (yet). It does not matter who started it.

Sharkey - Ahmed isn't European he's Middle Eastern.
I second Jean's comments about not falling into the trap of using racial or cultural put downs. I agree Ahmed has a problem with Americans. Take the high road otherwise this forum will descend into farce.
This guy Ahmed is a ****wit, no word a lie, but he's not representative of our Dubai members, most of whom seem totally cool.
On another note, Markski's car is **** hot. His tuners have done a ******* of a job and there is no way known that his dyno sheets are faked.

Jean's earlier post really said it all -- the guy that made the offending post really is naive and clearly ignorant of the progress being made with TT's outside of his area of respect. FWIW it is not so different to views expressed here and on Rennlist-- after all it is not that long that there have been some performance parameters developed that are credible for all to see.
Further-- his views of 9ff are not much different (on his choice of tuner)to some of the true believers that are quick to make outrageous claims here and elsewhere with what were unsubstantiated claims or relied on dubious data -even if well intentioned.In this case the use of the English language probably gave it the extra edge to make it sound worse than was probably intended.

^ Dude. Personal Foul with the run on sentences!
MARKSKI - Rock on BABY! You will make believers of them all in time. Keep up the good work spreading the gospel. If that Turbo_S guy would stop talking and start listening for a couple of seconds, he might learn a little something and not come across sounding like such a DOLT!

I was so surprised when he said that these dyno sheets had to be fake that I was compelled to show all on that thread... and I did.. I let my car speak for me...
