driving fast

seeing a young person die at an early age is a rough thing..but 130 on a backroad? not a good thing..lets just say im in my 30's..lol...and i do drive fast from time to time..100mph? sure here and there but its on the interstate and its wide open spaces..95% of the time im doing the speed limit or 5 mph over...jesus we need and autobahn here..lol..or maybe not...but in closing..as a young man yes...i was 10 feet tall and bulletproof..hell we all were at one point..and as far as street racing goes...most of my races...which are about 1 a year..lol..last a grand total of about 5-7 seconds thats it..later guys..and be careful its a jungle out there

Amen to that. I was hell on wheels from the time I was 16 driving my 64 Chevelle, until recently. Now I'm 23 and have a 1 month old daughter. I don't want to do anything to endager her, or do something stupid that would widow my wife and have her grow up without a father. Not to mention I couldn't live with myself if the unthinkable happened and I lived but took someone elses life. I have slowed down alot. Don't get me wrong I still play around a little bit, but there's a time and a place for everything.

After my ticket I have really slowed down. I only go after races I feel ok about doing and feel that are pretty safe.

I'm only 22 with no responsibility but I've slowed down a lot. I got 5 tickets and wrecked 3 cars the first 3 years I was driving. I learned something. Once you're dead you've lost a very important part of your life. I still blast it every once and a while, that's why we make fast cars, but it's definately within reason.
