Ashtanga 0 #5 September 13, 2005 I vote for "other". Take out the passenger and back seats and pretend you are driving around in a Cessna Jumpplane. Have your friends sit on the floor and yell DOOR and stick your heads out the door while going 90 miles per hour. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillyVance 34 #6 September 13, 2005 I'd bury the speedo. Once I borrowed a friend's sports car, only because he asked to borrow my truck for a deer hunting trip. So there I am, going a pretty sane 80 mph, and approaching a slower beat up pickup truck. As I'm about to catch up to it, it starts to speed up as if the dumbass driver refuses to let me pass him. Duh, he looks like a redneck. So, like a piece of cake, I floor it and easily pass him and take off. However, I got stuck behind a bunch of cars, and this idiot comes right up to my bumper like an angry hornet. So I hit the gap and take off, and he follows, trying to get me back. I refuse to allow it. So, there I am, weaving in and out of traffic at 90 mph with the idiot desperately trying to keep up, then I shoot through a closing gap between two 18 wheelers, trapping him behind them and I floor it to 130 mph. Problem solved. Guess I ruined his happy mood...

NWFlyer 2 #7 September 13, 2005 Please, please, bury the speedo. Get rid of that thong while you're at it. Oh, wait, you're talking about the speedometer!

kingbunky 3 #13 September 14, 2005 i remember an article in car & driver way back when called 'the high speed handling characteristics of a pickup truck', written by pj o'rourke. funniest damn thing i ever read. i'd try everything he said. he described several different cornering techniques (late apex, trailing brake, early turn in etc.) and they all ended with things like, 'this will put you into the woods.' 'this will roll the truck several times, and put you in the woods.' 'this will cause the truck to spin out, flip in mid-air, and put you in the woods.'"Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart."
