I was driving along :driver: on the freeway yesterday afternoon when up on my tail was a silver Infinity G35. So I thought to myself,
“Here we go.†The driver changed lanes and passed me only to remain just ahead of me to take his bait. As usual I never engage immediately so as to give a challenger time to reconsider…. and to give me time to think about it:hmmmm: . Well, I had my 5 year old daughter :girl: in the truck enjoying her :elefant: Disney DVD. I decided this definitely wasn’t the place or time. I wasn’t putting us in danger to The Lion King soundtrack. So I left old Dangerous in 6th and maintained normal freeway speeds. Well, the fool must have thought he had my nutz because he pulled away from me flashing his hazards and weaving dangerously as he advanced in and out of traffic lanes. I stayed quite content at 65 mph; and thank goodness I didn’t get involved in that scrap :fight: because I didn’t see the five-OH unit that suddenly appeared on my right side.:secruity: Next thing I knew he sped up and got right in behind that loser. As he activated his wig-wags and :hahaha: escorted some Infinity ass to the shoulder I had a serious, personal thought:
:dontknow: What do I prove when I arrive at such a situation while on a solo ride? Is the fact that my daughter isn’t present enough excuse for me to engage in a dangerous bout with another motorist on a Texas freeway? :hmpf: No certainly not, and besides even if my child isn’t physically there she still IS in a way because she’s always in my heart. If I were to get into a senseless WRECK that would definitely mess her up (she’s extremely close to me). It’s not like mine is modded for more performance than it has. If people on the freeway want to see what she can do they can find out on SPEEDVISION, or read all about it in a magazine somewhere:deal: . I think I’m going to kick the habit :angel: and begin driving the speed limit. All that can happen is I:
1) Save gas and money
2) Keep her running good (save money here too)
3) Stay alive and healthy (uh, more money saving tips)
4) Enjoy the ride
5) All of the above:top:
"I'll take 5 for $200 Alex." I’m NOT saying that blowing the posted speed limit or racing to prove to others what we already know is bad. I can’t say I didn’t enjoy it when I was involved. Maybe it was seeing that G35 drive so recklessly yesterday that shook me up. Like Roktman and many others, I was trained to operate a motor vehicle during dangerous pursuits on oil slicks, rain and other inclement weather. But we’re NEVER trained enough to control the uncontrollable. At least I don’t think I was. I just don’t want to imagine my ending up in either a hospital :stickyman: or morgue:saint: for nothing. Then there will be no more Venom Power with the bad puns and terrible one-liners.:tomato: So you homos won’t be getting rid of me anytime soon.
