You are so literal sometimes... I may have mentioned in a previous post about burnouts in parking lots. Since the evidence does not back me up, then I guess I should retract all my comments and opinions?

Not going to happen. I guess I should have been less specific and said "public area" instead of "parking lot". I hope you can forgive me... Not that it matters to me. I like to get along with everyone, but I am realistic in thinking that not everyone has the same level of common sense that most of us have.

Anytime driving behavior makes it to the news, it is not a good thing! This behavior was in direct attachment to the Mega Meet (in the Mall parking lot) and the motivation of the drivers to exhibit bad judgment in public and put the other drivers on the road and spectators on the side of the road in danger. It is easy for a spectator to encourage someone to show off; it won't be their accident, unless the vehicle careens into the crowd. The C63 is a perfect example of someone losing control while showing off. I am sure that the Mall is strongly considering never to have a sanctioned car event again, and that would be a shame for the automotive enthusiasts.

To use a quote of yours: "I'm just saying".
Oh wait, I should probably wait and post that in one minute, then post again in a another minute from that post... I would use what I call the "Dee Method" to get three posts towards my goal!

Do me a favor and re-read the entire thread, I agree with you. I'm not disputing that. Once again, I'll say it again, I said the video was badass. Which is my opinion. I'm entitled to it. You don't like it, I don't care. It's cool.

Literal, whatever. Common sense, whatever. Call it what you want. Post it 3 times (aka "Dee's Method"), wait a minute, then another minute, whatever. Get mad, be happy, whatever.

Have a good day.

For the record, I'm not "Mad" at you. I am, however, irritated with you. There is a difference. I just think you can be an a$$ sometimes just stirring things up. I can usually ignore your bs, but I have fallen into your pot and replied a few times. This thread is one of those times. "Just sayin'"...

I just wasted 20 minutes re-reading this thread. I guess it all started for me when you threw out the "Saints" comment in your 12:11 post. Not to be confused with your 12:00 post that did not get a reply, so you had to post at 12:11. You also did three in a row at 12:21, 12:22 and 12:23. a few others replied within the time frame between your 12:23 post and your next one at 12:52, followed by your 13:03 one where you mentioned "hipocrisy". You allowed a few other people to post and then started an unanswered string from 13:26, 13:26, 13:27, 13:29 and 13:35. I need to ask, do you type just to see your words on the screen? Anybody else see a pattern? I decided to stop tracking your posts at 13:35. Not worth any more of my time that I will have to make up at the office, so I don't feel like I have cheated the office out of my time.

I'm going to say "have a good day" with the same tone that you did.

Reminds me of a time when I pulled someone over on Christmas day to give them a warning for speeding at 46 in a 25. The individual gave me a hard time and when I was done writing the ticket, I turned it over and drew a smiley face with a Santa hat

and wrote "Merry Christmas" under it. Yes, I can be an a$$ as well. My Desk Sergeant thought it was hilarious (when the guy faxed it in the next day as a complaint) but asked me not to do that again.

"Have a good day."

So...we're clear on the point that you don't agree with the behavior of those captured in the video, but you think the video is "badass." What, other than the participants' foolhardy actions, is "badass" about these videos? Surely not the composition or audio-video quality.

Too much logic used here.

You get one of these...

Burnouts are whats badass. Doing them in public is stupid. I think is what he is getting at.

I think what we all need to take away from this is, doing **** in public is wreckless....even what we do. Atleast in a public area people can see you being a jackass and stay clear. No one can see you coming by at warp speed on a back road.

Exactly right Cody. Thats spot on. "spirited" driving, burnouts, drifting, etc..etc..etc. It's all reckless.
