Krazy is done being Krazy
some of you know me some of you dont. I drive like an *******. I have no respect for anyone on the road or anyone who rides in my car. **** me off and I drive 10X worst. Since the days of driving I have always driven with no respect to anyone on the road. I was always told I was krazy for many reasons 1. being the way I drive. and 2. for all the fighting I did in the past.
Recently I've been bad with my girlfriend in the car. When we started dating, one night she upset me and I drove as fast as I could to her house to drop her off. I got up to 140MPH with her in the car that night. After sitting home and thinking about how stupid that was I apologized to her and promised her I would never drive like that again.
Fast foward to friday. I havent stopped driving like an *******. Now its to the point she will not get in the car with me. I've lost her respect and that upsets me. She says if we have kids some day, I wont be allowed to drive with them in the car. I deserve this treatment from her cause I have disrespected her. I promised her today I will never speed again. My word isnt good enough and she doesnt believe me, cause friday I promised I wouldnt speed and I got up to 110mph just to make an exit.
I feel like a total piece of ****. What sucks is, it takes her being so upset with me for me to change. I should of changed a long time ago. Once the Z28 sells, the Krazy plate is gone after 7 years being used by me. I dont need to have that reputation anymore. I dont need to drop gears on anyone who trys to pass me. I dont need to street race. I'm done with speeding all together. I'm done with racing for a long long time. If you see me again it will be on a track with all the proper safety equipment.
Good luck to everyone, and when your driving fast with someone in the car, if they ask you to slow down, have some respect for them
Sorry Melissa

When I had my Trans AM I got up to 165MPH with 2 friends of mine in the car coming back from Providence at 2am. Next day I woke up and said **** i'll never do that ever again. 2 weeks later I was doing 155MPH with 3 other people in the car, I hit a dip in the highway while switching lanes and the back end got squirley on me. I almost **** myself. I told myself yet again, I will not drive like that ever again. Its never stopped. The one thing going to make me stop is the love I have for my girlfriend. Without that I'd be fucked. I'm happy to say I am alive and never killed anyone or injured anyone. Thank God I'm putting it to a stop now.

you start out as a 15 and it used to be for every moving violation you get 1 point, now I think it counts as 2 points, but every year your supposed to lose 1 point but it takes 6 years to drop a violation off your points. 35 is the max and 9 is the lowest, i was 1 violation away from losing my license for 5 years.

Funny how we all mature at some point, some do it cold turkey, some, like me, did it cool turkey. Eventually you realize that you carry a responceability...sounds like it hit you like a ton of bricks...cant help but agree with Melissa... I think its in the blood to pedal down if someone draop a gear next to you...please understand thats normal...I cant say I havent street raced another dad in another mini-van.
You need a road track hobby, cause its obviously in your blood.

Good post Marco!
Years ago I was a member of the "35 point club". Back then I'd take people on high speed runs down the highway. Street racing every weekend was fun. There was a reason why I always drove around on drag radials. Thank God that is way in the past. I'm currently a step 10 with one year to go until I reach the magic 9. Way to much to lose if something happens and points get way to expensive.
There is a thing called the Clean Slate Rule. 3 incident free years will get you down to either a step 14 or 15.
Hopefully you can stick to this. Telling yourself or your girlfriend your going to be good is one think. Telling all of our is something else.

whats this step system? I don't know what NH does as I've managed to not ever get pulled over-until last tues (got off with a stern "don't do it again") so I don't know how any of that works. Any info would be cool

Its not gonna be an easy task. Its like telling a crack addict to quit. This is the only way I know how to drive. My first car I bought was a 88GTA first day driving it I blew 3rd and 4th gear then comes the 98 T/A 1 month its back in the shop for a blown 5th and they want to void my powertrain warranty cause my tires were bald. Not to mention how many motors and other trannys i blew. Its such a horrible habit. One thing about Melissa, since I met this girl she has made me look at the big picture about so many things. Greatest girl I ever met in my life. I have so much to be thankful for having met such a wonderful person. I feel horrible that I have made her so scared to even get in my car.Hopefully one day I earn my trust and respect back from her.

wow congrats on your decision. and i can second the whole when someone is passing you dont let them... not proud of it. i dont think CT uses the point system either, but i dont drive like a jackass 99 percent of the time. im the guy who just goes the speed limit. i also second the road racing thing. build yourself a car to run at lime rock and have fun the legal way it means a lot to love someone so much to change yourself, your g/f must be a wonderful person. best of luck to ya

get over it....
I was a passenger is a KB Cobra 12 months ago that managed to leave the road and do a bit of damage to a parked car in a driveway among other things. I have managed to mend fences with the driver who at one time was one of my closest friends. Even now though, it annoys me. I'm such a pansy *** when I am a passenger in anyone's car now, they must think I squat when I pee. But I can't help it, that feeling of not having control as a passenger absolutely sucks and I can't get away from it. I had been in a couple relatively minor accidents before then, but the Cobra accident took my 'passenger syndrome' to a whole new level....
