Dude are the troll here.
I don't troll forums I posted my Lotus build so that other Lotus owners that are not posers might want to take advantage of my R$D and save time and money doing modifications that work in the real world without getting ripped off.
Consensus suggests otherwise.I don't troll forums I posted my Lotus build so that other Lotus owners that are not posers might want to take advantage of my R$D and save time and money doing modifications that work in the real world without getting ripped off.
Regardless, no-one is claiming that posting your Lotus build was trolling - that was interesting for most people on here.

I expressed my opinion on the GT3 vs my Turbo S in the real world but in no way am I trolling with painted keys and toy rotors hanging on them, that's for certain GT3 trolls to do...
Perhaps you don't understand what 'trolling' means?the ronin said:
Troll away sidicks in your poser mobile.... I wonder what seats and harness setup you have in your wanna be racer ?
No posing required - the car is for driving, not posing. Ironically, as good a car as the Turbo is, most people would suggest that the Turbo is the 'poser's car' and the GT3 is for people who understand 'driving'...I have bucket seats - no need for harnesses in a car to be used predominantly on the road...
What 'R spec' tyres? - Standard tyres are Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2's.

Ronin is not a troll he is a "wandering samurai with no Lord or master."
All car and no dick.
He seems to be very punchy to me, really trying to wind people up for some reason. I couldn't get myself that worked up over a car tbh, especially one that I dont even own. The main thrust of his contention seems to be that he believes the Turbo S is a better car than the GT3, fair enough mate, move on. A very strange thread indeed but nonetheless fun to watch.All car and no dick.
Waiting for the next rant.

Don't understand why Ronin is so adamant on slating GT3's and struggle accepting not everyone agree with his views.
A 991TS is a lowly car and so is the GT3, not all settings are the same, some will suit one more than the other. Personally I couldn't imagine it much fun having to drive a TS on track but whatever, for some it might be perfect.
I assume you mean 'lovely'?!A 991TS is a lowly car and so is the GT3, not all settings are the same, some will suit one more than the other. Personally I couldn't imagine it much fun having to drive a TS on track but whatever, for some it might be perfect.
Apparently he's renowned for trolling the forums and sharing his 'robust' opinions. I think Pistonheads is his current favourite haunt for this purpose!
TS a nice road fiddle car that can be used occasionally on track, GT3 visa versa. Trolling is a sad reality of modern social media, best countered by ignoring.

Edited to add: although having your key painted to match your car is a bit dubious

I'm surprised by your comment. ... I thought you above all this ego twaddle...... Though I think the OP had guts to argue he wasn't that impressed with the GT3 if he wasn't just trolling.

But the OP is a major wind up merchant - however valid his argument may be.

Canyons are SO yesterday. We had 10 991 GT3's hooning through the Scottish Glens over the last 3 days, I never heard one complaint from the drivers....funny that.
Hi Al how was the trip - how many in total ? Was it ok or too many to work ? Cheers R LindsayMac, beautiful pic ! not so easy to arrange in Scotland 
This Dude from Merica, just likes to wave his Willy & wind folk (who are daft enough to take the Bait) up.
I am a lowly 996turbo (with 9emods) owner, who would happily accept a 991turbo s/991gt3 . . but, if you want a REAL smile it'll maybe have to be a 991gt3rs (Orange thanks
)
I find this level of antagonising/winding up of fellow Porsche enthusiasts quite juvenile, and a massive reflection on the maturity/worldlinesss of the Twunts who seem determined to participate even after being shunned by the majority.
We all have our "own views" , those of us with some manners/intelligence/education/imagination have developed an ability to see them as . . . . our "own views", perhaps this concept is still traversing the Atlantic. . . . . . .

Hi R, 32 cars in total and it went unbelievably well, no hitches except for 2 runners having a puncture, no BiB, no hassles, a bunch of petrolheads who just jelled immediately, the whole trip was fantastic...it couldn't have gone better. Shocks and his wife put together a belter!
Good news - next year - promise !
