So the two of you endangered countless other people on the road just because you felt a need to get home earlier, and then had to test out your mecha-peens?

Shameful and selfish.

I'm not saying it's the smartest thing ever, and neither is Chino. Thats that as far as I'm concerned.

Yeah, if you guys think I give a shit about your mass judgement of my morality, you're sorely mistaken. By all means though, feel free to continue wasting your time.

Lol. . . they werent' going that fast and besides, if there was a danger it was probably to the hypermiler doing 54 1/2 mph in the left lane refusing to get over so he could save $.23 in gas that day. . .

You just gotta deal with people that think nobody can drive or know their limits. Some people are in fact safer driver at the limit than other people at the speed limit. Its the idiots with no driving experience thinkin they are mario andretti,and blowing by other cars on the road,that are the problem. And the people that merge onto a 65 mph freeway at 45 mph just to save some gas. People that won't pull over and let faster traffic by,which cause traffic back up are by far the most dangerous thing on the road.

I agreed with your comments until the last part....

the speed limit is just that the limit, if i choose to drive the limit in the "so called fast lane" what law am I breaking the limit, is the limit...I hate tailgators like yourself.

Some people just don't get it. Go talk to a paramedic about "good fast" drivers and where they end up. Keep it on the track...

What's up with a moderator bragging about reckless driving?

Oh, I get it... because we're moderators we can't act like ourselves? Please. You're sorely mistaken if you think I'm neutered by my account status.

Anyway, the whole arguing against street racing in the street racing thread thing is simply juvenile. I know it isn't smart, and I wouldn't advocate it. I told a story. Now the soap boxers on the forum find the need to shit in my thread on the basis of their morality?

MOVE
THE
FUCK
ON
PEOPLE!

Oh, wait, can I not say that?
