You probably shouldn't be posting on a public forum that you were doing 100, or 120mph.

I usually toss a few frags out, had them cooking for about 3 seconds, boy does it ever work.

I love the "yes!" comment and the snicker shortly after from the driver right as he's exiting when the cop flips on his flashing lights

I raced a DeLorean once (not in the Z). He was winning until he hit 88 mph and suddenly ended up back at the starting line

I'm usually pretty good in the mirrors , if I see someone creeping up and I'm in the passing lane , I'll just switch over and let them pass no biggie

Funny real story...

Buddy's gf, she's mellow and easy going, never pick fights...but the prototypical Asian driver that completely fit the comedic stereotype.

One day buddy told her left lane is for passing only, that she should move back to right lane if not passing. Boy was that a nuclear launch button...She got defensive faster than a P1 hitting 60mph... "NO, WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO MOVE? I HAVE TO RIGHT TO BE ON THAT LANE!!! I'M JUST MINDING MY OWN BUSINESS!!!" We proceeded to tell her it's the law, and she wouldn't accept that.

Just goes to show you a billion Chinamen CAN be wrong and facts do change because of your beliefs. Idiots.

So this female has no consideration for other people, just concerned about her rights? sad.
