Over
the past few years I have heard certain phrases and quotes about
General Motor's W-Body platform. Some of the gossip going around is that
" Luminas are the next imperial" or "Luminas are the strongest car in
compacts". Where the hell did people lose their minds to compare the
Lumina and Imperial? No doubt Luminas hold their own in the heat of the
battle but never compare it to an Imperial. That is just pure
ignorance!
Responding
to the quote "Luminas are the strongest car in compacts", well that can
be easily argued. I have witnessed many local derby venues have a
plentiful field of Luminas, which none were really impressive in my
eyes. I have yet to witness one just flat out junk the competition with
no problem unless it is cheated.
So
in regards to that I am not in favor of this gossip. It is just far
fetched and completely ignorance driven. If you are a fan of them and
take this to heart, well tough shit. There are pros and cons you must
weigh out before you label it the strongest car in the division,
although you do have the option to support your own theory.
A
strong car can be used efficiently and must have certain attributes,
which a Lumina does not reflect the image of a strong car at all. It is
just a bunch of bullshit gossip filling everyone's heads to the point
you are hypnotized. Wake up people! Hello?? Don't be so gullible!
I
know unfortunately I may seem like a critic, but honestly I am only
trying to bring your attention to the myth about these cars. The front
end is often referred to as the "business end" which I do agree with
that statement. Luminas do have a stout front end if well built, but
the ass-ends are not strong at all. With that being said in my opinion
it is not a strong car.
Who
want's to drive around forward in a derby the whole time? That must
get awful boring. The fan's come to watch a derby not hot laps at a
dirt track. They want to see those kamikaze shots you take from one end
to the other with the ass-end. They love that excitement, I know I
sure do!
So
don't follow the norm of the derby society. Buy a junker somewhere and
build it tough. Remember any car can win at any given time!
