Sleeper seems to attract most attention from wanna be racers/jerks

Yep. I will say this, there isn't any way the lady would have ever seen him. All she would have ever seen was me making a left turn on to the road and him following behind me. It wasn't till after that, the guy got in the right lane and gunned it. Still driving or walking you gotta pay tons of attention.

3 years and nothing yet. Now then on to the quick takeoffs, if I am on Mac Tr it takes me approximately 2.5 seconds to get to +10 over the limit and Centre St N even less time. I honestly do not see the fun of hammering it in first gear and then shutting it down. Taking the car up to 200 kmph and rowing 3-4 gears in the 1/4 is absolutely worth the effort.

A little race is definitely more fun than no race at all.

well this wasnt a race was more of just felt like testing it.
On my way home on i-41, not a person in sight for miles ahead of me and nobody behind me, laid into it and went from 75-115 in an instant it seemed.
Love long stretches of nothing and nobody around, leads to so much fun

As I stated before, Iam a firefighter and I have seen first hand what speeding,and or racing can do. My first year as a firefighter I had 2 accidents I responded to...of those 2 accidents there were 3 fatalities all children age 6 or younger. So I get really pissed when I see people racing or driving like an ***. How many of these guys could forgive themselves if the unthinkable happened?
Actually, a certain amount of fun on the road I tolerate (driving should be fun), but weaving in traffic and driving beyond the cars capabilities and road conditions, that's just stupid. Speed, in and of itself, is not dangerous (planes are still one of the safest ways to travel), it's the loss of traction and sudden stop that is the issue.
