Re: A4 yuppie scum in Boston
I will probably get flamed but what kind of an ass is driving at 120mph
around other traffic? You are nuts!! I hope you are nowhere around the
northwest where I live, because I would hate for you to kill my friends or
family with your stupidity.
If you think I am some pansy ass old fart, you might be half right. BUT, I
have done some serious high speed driving on Sears Point raceway in my
rotary powered Lotus and have been a successful SCCA Prorally co-driver,
with two firsts and a second place in one year's time in production GT.
Use your brains, not your balls around, when you are driving around
civilians. Yoou never know how they will react, even if you are a great
driver, and I have my doubts.
I hope you get the point.
