Actually from around the block... chased me down into my driveway in his Hemi Pickup truck [this is FL after all] and said " do you know we have kids around here, bla,bla,bla"
I don't think I broke 35 but it must sound like 50! I said "calm down, I'm just breaking in a new engine" and he responded "if you come on my block again I have your tag# and will call the cops". Man...I feel like I'm 16 again! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) |

My residential street is posted 20mph and I takes an effort to drive that slow. But with twin 4-year-old girls at home I try me best. How fast do you think you could stop doing 35mph? 50 feet? How much warning would you get when some small kid steps out or runs out in front of your car.
I agree some people think loud = fast but don’t come down on someone because he is looking out for his kids. As far as all of you bragging on how loud your cars are shouldn't you be on the ricer board where loud = fast (at least in your mind). Cars don’t have to be excessively loud to have good exhausts. I always have to laugh when I hear a loud car revving through the gears as I pass them in our family van. |
