Do what you do Mike! Just don't hurt anyone and you'll be okay!
Coming from me it's not really hypocrisy, more like trying to share lessons learned from experience. Of course we all know most of the time those lessons only get learned by making those screwups yourself.

Mike - sorry for being a dick before...it hits home a little for me is all...all these years later I know a guy that is living in a home shitting in diapers, pissing himself, and wearing a drool rag b/c he also thought it was cool to burnoff from every stop in his 85' GT, race anything from a huffy to a dragster, and did it all without a care in the world...was just fun in the moment...we were only teenagers after-all. Hopefully that's all he remembers, but its real sad now.
I hope you can keep it between the ditches and the rubber side down. Take some time to be responsible and think about your surroundings.70' Chevelle RagTop

I've never posted how fast I was going because it's so stupid.
I had been in 5th gear for a while, I was around 4000rpm when I hit a dew spot and it went sideways on a 2 lane highway (377). I tried to save it but at 130mph there's not much saving I could do, but I didnt stop trying. It was going straight towards a pipe and cable fence with concrete sections. It tailwhipped and slid backwards into that ditch and I was completely sideways perpendicular with the highway sliding sideways at over 100mph straight towards a drainage pipe under a driveway. I turned the wheel in the direction of the slide and held on.. I seriously thought I was going to start flipping at that would be it. When I hit the ramp I was relieved I went flying instead of flip, then I had to deal with flying over the highway.
I landed in the middle of the highway slid some more and went backwards into the other ditch on the opposite side of the highway, the car had stalled out and I was rolling into some trees. Car stopped, I re started and drove to work shaking.
I did this once before, but I was going slower and I drove out of the slide.. That was in my 89 GT when I was 17.
I would like to say my ass doesn't drive like that anymore. It's not worth it, shit happens way to fast.
