Microsoft?

My brother. He did 7yrs in the Army and spent a long deployment in Iraq driving MRAPs. When he got back to to the states, he never stopped driving like he was in a convoy and would:

At least these all make sense...cough cough BMW

Yawn

Probably has 5HP... and 1000lb ft of torque

That time my brother drove us down the tracks in Salt Lake City in my Camry.  The people at the stations (yes, plural) had the most confused looks on their faces.

They actually bought it back.

I’ve lost track at the number of drivers I see smoking while in rush hour traffic, in Seattle.

Dang! Kid referring to my maturity level as I don’t consider being myself becoming a mature adult until about 30.  The irony was that I joined the Navy out of high school to grow up and it ended up just being 6yrs of fraternity antics.

I was at Pomona Raceway and picked up a spent dragster tire for free. This girl I met there wanted to go off track for lunch with me and they both wouldn’t fit in the car.

Haha yes they do. I still don’t know why that CHP officer didn’t even attempt to chase me when I flew by at 140mph in my 700HP C5. And yes, I was trying to impress a girl. She literally asked me: “So, how fast will this go?”  Man, I was a dumb 27yr old kid.

FYI, The Tenerife accident occurred when a 747 took off into another one that was lost on the runway, in heavy fog.

Went to go buy a motorcycle that I had found on CL. It was 3hrs away, so I asked very specific questions about it. It had a failing ECU, so I hired my mechanic to inspect it for me and tow it home on his trailer.

Do they cover where you trail brake while simultaneously getting on the gas to allow the turbo to spool?
