[s-cars] Paul F. is in town!

[auditude at cox.net]

I think it's a true story, corroborated by another lister who also posted about the accident.  It could have been exaggerated since the other lister, the driver, got knocked out during the exciting part.

The friction came when he insisted he could brace himself against accident forces, and that it was cool to total a car (I'm sure it was a rush), and got personal such as inviting people to do strange things to him.  

I think he got kicked because it just went downhill from there, with Paul basically daring the list ownership, saying, "What are you gonna do about it?"  I was surprised by his attitude in the thread, but it was great reading.  Not the typically Audifans repartee.  

I came across the thread way after it was over, quite a while ago now.  It continues in the next archive, December 2002.
