Most people who are into cars & like to drive fast have had some sort of off. I've had several but got away without writing anything off or hurting myself too bad more by luck than judgement(nearly crashed into a 100 foot quarry once!!! :o )

If you've done it, there's no doubt its a real shitter - the worst feeling and quite frankly I don't think anyone should laff at anyone for crashing. Its just sick

The rivalry and pisstaking between RB and Novaload is 1 thing but lets not take it too far.

I feel sorry for Ged and hope he's OK.

Yea right, leave it out. Ged's Nova was nearly finished so he must be gutted. One day you might know what it's like to see all the time and effort you've put into your cars just go down the drain - you won't be laughing then.

Hope Ged is ok.

no more car park racing at riverside then

unlucky, crashing is shit cos it means you have to walk to places!!!

ive managed over a year without wrapping up a car now. It may have something to do with the fact the cars ive bought since my last crashes werent saxos!

that would be a good price (assuming engine still runs and minimal damage) if you lived local. would cost a fortune if you had to pay a delivry truck to move it :(

Lmao! Are you serious ade?????? You cant tell me you've been on this site all this time and not known who Ged is????

Classic! hahahaha! Sorry m8 but thats well funny (tears in my eyes job)!

31-10-02, 09:50 PM
sorry guys but well yeah - who is he?? :oops:

I've seen loads of references to who he is and theres been tons of toing and frowing and stabbing of his name etc but no one has ever explained who he is?

DO'H!

:oops: :oops: :oops:

Sorry ade m8 no offence :oops:

It just struck me as majorly funny that he wasn't known. Couldnt stop laffing - the missus thought I'd lost it lmao!

Anyway so who is he???? I've never met him but here's some Novaload history

Well he does exist lol! and he runs roybacer. In the early days when Novaload first got going there was no RB. Ged was one of the main participants on here. During this time he set up RB, I'm not really sure why - you have to ask him that? But anyway he remained a (very) regular contributor on here. No worries we all rubbed along OK and seemd to be mates.
However, relations slowly soured as he became the butt of some major piss taking. As I remember it he used Novaload to majorly promote his new Nova site which annoyed some and he also said a lot of stuff at various times which annoyed various people and that set himself up to be laffed at. If someone started on him, we all tended to pile in and take the piss big time esp. if it was about his Ped lol!
Anyway he didn't take kindly to it at all and took umbridge. It got nasty - things were said on both sides - he got abusive and caused probs so eventually he was kicked off here.

Ever since then there's been a tit for tat exchange of insults which flairs up every now and then. I think it would be fair to say that it isn't all Geds fault and sometimes he gets more shit than he perhaps deserves. There's plenty use his site and this one and don't have a problem with either? So make up your own mind?
Maybe its petty but its a bit like being a football supporter - there are some rival teams you just dont like and its actually quite enjoyable not liking them - there doesn't really need to be a proper reason?


Thats it in a nutshell - history lesson over lol! I'll asking questions later :lol:

lol he would appear to have a problem with one moderator of his site who deleted all the posts! lol Rick

Coincidently there's some classic Ged on MIG at the moment. Its in Mike Warners post about selling his car. (sorry cant be arsed to do the link).

Its exactly that sort of post that endears him to peeps - not :roll:

ade
01-11-02, 01:09 PM
lol!

Cheers CP - now it all makes perfect sense! Seen lots of posts with his name attached to them (many slagging him off!) - reading your history lesson makes it all hit!

Dont worry about laughing at me ref not knowing - I would have done the same - guess its like asking who Tony Blair is!

Ade
:wink:

Did you see that poll the other day, it was on newsround :oops: Sayin that only such a percentage of the population knew who tony blair was summit like 80% of adults, something like 5% knew the name of the german chancelor etc. I'll try and find it.

It is a shame for Ged. No one likes to have there pride and joy taken away from them.

What is funny, is those of you saying that crashing a car is a good thing...am I the only one thats thinking of what happens to your insurance? If you do crash a moderatley fast car at a young age and it is your fault then you're gonna be screwed when it comes to insuring the next "bigger, faster, better Nova". Unless you don't declare modifications, then it's the rest of us that get screwed because the premiums go up :(

I've never crashed my car and "touch wood" hopefully wont. I don't drive like 'Miss.Daisy' before Ian and Breeny start :P I just assess the conditions before I drive - common sence really.

The bickering between RB and Novaload is down to a few individuals from what I can tell Ade.

well if you do drive hectic then chances are you will crash at some point! if a careful driver can crash so can u! as for insurance maybe it will rise maybe it wont myne didnt it also didnt when i got points! at the end of the day y get your self down you cant turn bak time so think to the future :)

1.6i GTE engine which can out accelerate a clio williams to 60 (the engine dropped it's oil when i crashed so may just need a new sump) (cost ?200 in total)

Ged deserved a crash, he drove as hard as he could the whole time and it was bound to happen sooner or later, anyone who has ever street raced has run the same risk.

I used to go illegal street racing many years ago and if i had crashed it would have been my fault.

Ged is a mate of mine and im gutted fro him as his car was just getting to be finished.
Ged himself will im sure admit thoguh that it was just his own fualt and it was the risk he always knew he was taking.

When he gets his next car he has a choice of slowing down and not having so much fun or driving the same and risking another crash.

Same choice we all have i guess.

Im sure he'll bounce back with another nova soon enough and be out there once again showing people in more expensive machinery what a nova with a committed driver can do to them!


All this rivalry between the two sites is bollocks, i get on with most people on both sites, and if everyone was on one site then im sure they would all get on fine.
