Default Some people just don't belong in F-bodies

I saw a Pewter Ram-Air in Alvin yesterday driving like a complete maniac. Every corner getting it sideways, getting on it when there is no where to go (in traffic), peeling out at every stop, etc. I mean don't get me wrong, I like to go fast, but driving like he was is just asking to get pulled over or lose control and getting in a wreck. I'm sure his lesson is soon to come.

Yup, I know exactly what you're talking about. I see all the kids coming out of the highschool everyday showing off for their friends and ****. Then the other night some kid comes barelling through rush hour traffic weaving in and out and literally came within an inch of my truck. I ran him down and gave him a good piece of my mind. I was pissed.

Some people learn, some people don't. You can only hope that if he does kill himself he doesn't damage the f-body too badly...

I've seen death first hand and have had friends killed in accidents... It ain't pretty.

I'm 17 and it ******* sucks getting stereotyped all the time.

I don't know how he made it through Alvin driving like that. I can't go 5 mph over with out the cops following me all the way home. And I ususally drive it like a grandpa.

At one point (I seen him several times yesterday), I was going into Advanced Auto Parts and he came hauling *** through there, then made his way to the Kroger parking lot where it decided to do a few donuts. I just nodded my head and thought to myself, "What a dumbass."

Try driving through Friendswood everyday. It's a joke. 528 is nothing but one long speed trap. 45mph on a 4 and 6 lane divided hwy is just stupid.

f-bodies get cheaper, younger people buy them. You probably saw someone that just graduated from owning a ricer, finally got a V8.

I have been known to beat the **** out of my car on a few occasions. Never in traffic though and hardly ever during the day.

no kidding, all through high school everyone (adults) figured i was just your average dumbass with a fast car. some people just don't get taught properly when yound how to respect driving, or when you can maybe slide by with some idiot driving.
i have been drivin sence i was 6-7 years old. started out sittin on dads lap turnin the wheel and being told what to do and not do, so at least i had some common sence when i got my license..

Alot of these guys have never drove in their life then mom and dad by them a fast car (or any car) for their first day on the streets
