Drinking and driving is uncool, man. Just like what you said, super drunk, you could have been seriously hurt or killed, plus others. I was hit by drunk drivers in two different accidents. I walked away from both accidents, luckily. But usually, that isn't the outcome. Nice win.

That's cool. I would love it if my car would launch harder. Oh yeah, i'm adding a stall and some mickey t drs so it probably will. Sounds like a blast to me, especially on the streets.
