Danger gleams like sunshine to a brave man’s eyes.

Now who would name a baby Euripides...(what's more..why would you believe anything he says)

His parents. (Mnesarchus and Cleito.) At least I can pronounce Euripides.

Inbred heathens

Muscle cars, natures way of culling poor drivers for decades !

Huh

 

[DavidKFla]

Huh

The adrenaline rush.

No doubt that Chargers/Challengers certainly seem to attract a particular demographic that's as long on posturing and acting a jackass as they are short on skill...and sometimes they clash, no pun intended. Mustang crowd similarly gets painted with the same broad brush but not so much Camaro, Corvette, or other muscle/high performance cars.

I was talking to a young man the other day who was admiring mine and has been looking for a wrecked/salvaged Hellcat because that's the only way he can afford one, but a R/T and Scat will get you or an innocent bystander hurt or worse almost as fast as a Hellcat will.

Fortunately insurance companies take that into consideration, I can't imagine what my daughters would pay for their premium with my car, even with a clean driving record...and we know how much they gouge younger males, whether they have it coming or not.

True story from back in the day…

Local guy who had a rep for wrecking the really nice cars his father bought for him. His father would always buy small block cars (Camaro 350, Formula 350). He once said, if I had a really fast car, I would not have to prove my car was fast.

Regardless of the youthful arrogance and self-justification, I do abide by the statement. If there is the slightest chance of an issue, I sit back and calmly let the other guy go.

I would tend to agree...@ least 2 of my buddies painted their mustangs with a brush back in the day..(right over the rust)

At my company he's in charge of document destruction: Euripides Upman.

In this case, the lesson would be at 1am in a bar! I have many stories!!! Good thing the statute of limitations has run out, and most of the people are dead! Cept me, of course!
