Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

I would be jumping with joy if that happened to me (And i had a 67 impala)  :lol:

 

Eh I think I would be too if I wasn't currently dealing with a ton of other car projects.

though... this would be an excellent opportunity to see if that v12 i've been holding onto will actually fit in my impala... hmmmmm

Saw someone last week who had put a sleigh/sled on their car. Along with some glitter around the roof of the car.

Having the balls to runaway from the cops if the time comes.

I've been in cars running away from the cops for hooning. Almost more fun than the hooning itself

Do I want to know?

Being flashed for doing 80+ in a 20 isn't a ticket we were willing to take. (In the Prelude)

 

So we took it up to top speed on the highway (145 MPH), dived down some country roads and put it in the garage and ran in the house (friends' car and a different friend's garage / house)

Nope, they were to our side, flashed the lights, as soon as they flashed the lights we stomped on the gas, also had a darkened license plate cover

Not really saying it was a great feat. Just saying it happened.

 

We have fun with cars, we take them to their limits, we go fast, we go drifting. We know that we can die at any time because of the stupid shit we do. Our families know this. It doesn't bother us. We have all realized that someday we will die because of this type of stupid shit. We're willing to accept this, it's part of our daily lives

So nobody here freaks out when footage of street drifting is on the internet, but when people run from the cops it's a bad thing. Makes sense.

Alright, I'll continue with my fun times even though we were fine the entire time and were the only ones out. It was at 2:30 AM on a Tuesday night. If we ever would have seen another car other than the cop we would have slowed down

I'm not freaking out about it. I've just been ignoring it thus far because its posted so often.

 

Running from the cops however. Is too idiotic to ignore.

I don't care, it's still mind blowingly stupid and reckless. You think no one will care if you crash, but I have seen first hand the impact someone throwing their life away has on their family.

 I realize the effects my actions can cause to those that I love. But it doesn't mean I'm going to stop doing what I love most in life, going fast, drifting, rallying on back roads. It's one of the few reasons I'm ever happy. This is the type of stuff that cheers me up. This is the type of stuff that gets me through depression. Honestly, this is the type of stuff that has kept me from attempting a few times

Sigh.. It doesn't just affect those you love if you "hoon" around on public roads. if you plow into a family car then they aren't going to think "Its ok. He knows its bad"

 

And if you're dealing with depression. get professional help

I've tried. Many times. Nothing other than hooning and alcohol help. Obviously not at the same time
