I don't understand what your quarrel with driving fast is about? People drive fast all the time, whats your problem with people who drive fast in Civics or Integra's? Don't you own a GS-R? I'm sure you've broken the speed limit once in a while?

its fun at times to speed or w/e...but as u get older u will realize its dangerous and pointless. if ur driving somewhere...and ur goin 80 and im doin 65 ...ur only gonna get there about 10-15 mins earlier then me....if that...so why wouldnt people just leave their house a lil earlier...save gas and be more careful...instead of being all over the highway cuttin cars off and doin 100mph+ flybys for no reason. i used to do all that shit back in highschool...once u have ur first few close calls u will calm down...or when u own a new car that u care about and pay alot for and start to value ur life for more then wut its worth..u will think twice before passin 100 just to see wut ur car can do.

im not sayin not to speed...hell i do it at times...but make sure ur carefull. at those speeds nething can happen.

or once you've gotten your 1st dozen speeding tickets. You know you speed too much when you get pulled over twice by the same hi-po officer, on the same 120 mile stretch of highway, 1 month apart from eachother. I've noticed the slower your ar looks, the less tickets you will recieve. When I had my 240, I got probably 8 speeding tickets, and a few other misc. tickets in 2 years. Had the civic for 1 year now, and never been pulled over. Coincidence? Maybe. Driving smarter? Maybe. But I think it's cuz I don't have a loud exhaust and carbon fiber hood making me stand out from the crowd.

I done all of the above, but every once in a while I get that urge to pass everyone in sight. I like flying by people at breakneck speeds. My parents are well into there 50's, closing in on 60 and they drive way faster than I do. They also own much safer and fast cars than I own, but I learned from them and I have taken two defensive driving courses and I will be taking two more some time this year. I have taken an Advance Driving course in the Skip Barber Driving School and I take Auto-X School as well. I am as prepared as can be. But I always keep an eye out for the other drivers who haven't done any of that and who can't drive for their life.

I sometimes look at the highway as a chess board.

I should invest in a RollCage or some other safety system, for my car, if I want to go faster. But liked stated above my civic can't go faster than 125mph, and for now thats as fast as I want to go in my Civic.

I have a court date at the end of this month, so my speeding may come to an end sooner than I think.

there is speeding and then there is reckless endangerment. 120 mph on a public road is fucking stupid and the fact that you are defending it makes you look even more stupid. doing 75 in a 65 is differetn than 120 in a 65 and no i don't have an integra anymore. when i got a car that was actually fast i stopped driving like an idiot. i've been in a serious accident before (flipped doing the speed limit). so you guys doing 100+mph in a car that wasn't meant to be safe past 80 mph on public road is fucking stupid. when you kill somebody then you will learn. it's sign that you motherfuckers need to grow the hell up. you ever flip your car doing 75 mph. do you tards actually listen to yourselves?

no you should invest in a fucking brain if you are doing 100+mph in a civic. when you actually get a fast car you won't drive like that anymore. only idiot ricers trying to be paul walker drive like that on public roads in cars not meant to handle it
