The older you get the more of these stories you hear. "Young and dumb" is a coined term for a reason, survival of the fittest mind and body is my motto. Your life isn't guarenteed so the longer you live the more idiotic deaths you hear of. You'll get no sympathy here because I'm glad this waste of matter didn't take any innocents with him. jmo of course

He probably just finished altering his throttle response by opening up the pedal potentiometer. Then added the Royal Purple.

I don't have a lot of tolerance for racing on public roads. A couple of street-racing a-holes put my wife in the hospital a few years ago. As far as I'm concerned, the roads are safer without this guy on them, and at least he didn't take any innocent people with him. Keep it on the track, guys.

if you improve your suspension and tires, you will be able to push the envelope farther.....that means going even faster and probably lossing control of the car just as easy and at a higher rate of speed...suspension and tires arent going to help you in most cases.....when you push any car to far **** happens, whether it be a race car with road race suspension setup or not.

My car very, very rarely sees tripple digits. The aerodynamics on the classics just aren't right, even with brakes and suspension work.

It doesn't help that Hollywood shows cars making 90 degree turns at 120. While most will know that's impossible there are a few withzero common sense. Young people are going to die in fast cars, lowering the car isn't going to help. I've said it before and i'll say it again until i'm dead. If a parent buys their kid, or helps buy,a 300hp rwd muscle car like the 2005 mustang gt, they are absolutely, positively the stupidest mother ****ing idiots on this planet and we could do without their offspring.

Sorry to be so blunt, but i'm not one of those touchy feely bible pushing people who believes every human life is precious. Needless to say my kid is going to get some crappy used fwd car with just enough power to get out of its own way.

if you don't pay for it yourself then you won't respect it as much (and respecting what you own and what it can do is very important)
my first car was a v6 85 t-bird and I learned alot about cars and respecting what you own (the car was good and I would still have it if that civic hadn't hit me) I had to pay back the $500 that it cost (to my mom)as soon as I could and I did before it was hit

Personally, I think this should be saved for the track anyway...Highways or interstates are bad enough as they are...plus cops are EVERYWHERE [:@]

Lets face it we all like speed it's in our blood, why do you think we drive a muscle car. I remember whenI took my fathers car to school the first day I think I drove it all the wayhome in passing gear. I' ve had my share of muscle cars and believe me when I had them on the road I tortured the sh-t out of them.I wasn't one for high speed driving but more of a good holeshot and power shifting thru the gears but then let off. Today alot is probably influenced by the moviesdrifting, donuts,cornering. Personally I feel these new trends are more dangerous to the occupants and bystanders and are much more abusive on the cars. As far as horsepower goes we all strive for more but really how fast can you go on the street safely and not get ticketed also. I'm sure our 300HP cars can get us in just as much trouble as these 500HP cars can. Use this HP wisely at the track.
