Another forum:

I say: "there is no replacement for displacement"
Opponent says: "Horsepower sells cars,Torque wins races" Caroll Shelby.

this is a mostly humourous discussion and both my "opponnent" and I are on the same page about cars. We both realise that when it come sto N/A vs Turbo, it's down to preference and circumstance, but in this game I have taken the N/A corner and he has taken the Turbo one.

So, PH, help me out here. what quote would trump Caroll Shelby one?

Perhaps an artistic dance or poem might put him in his place.

PS, I'm sure the appropriate retort is one of either "Yo momma" or "Ner nee ner nee nerr nerr"

ANyway, I have a suitable retort.
"Last night while you were reading historical quotes from car makers from your 'GT Cars between 1969 and May 1978 by TwinCam' I was having sex with 4 different women, only two of whom were paid for, involving moves and creature that you have never even heard of. BSR wins"

I was going to use Dupoint666's retort but I think I should use BSR's just to see what happens.

Do you even have the vaguest awareness of how sad it is to post on one forum asking for help with an internet argument on another forum?

Has he not just agreed with you? He's saying "torque is good". and you said "displacement is good". They're both, ultimately, the same!?
