Do you guys remember the post someone made about the Audi that was split in half in Europe because it hit a tree while speeding? Now that **** made me decide not to ever use excessive speed on local roads and highways.

I'm gonna go ahead and call BULLSHIT on all the people saying they don't speed. Srce and anyone else can flame me to your hearts content and get your panties all bunched, but there's no way in hell you get in your 7 every day and tool around at the posted limit. Give me a ****** break and stop the friggin hypocrisy.
I'm getting very tired of all the bitchiness and and fingerpointing on this forum...from lots of people. It's starting to be like...well you know what website. This poor kid is 17, scared that he's gonna lose his license, and looking for advice from a group of fellow enthusiasts. What ever happened to constructive criticism? Speaking of which, maybe being voted ******* of NoPistons should be a little red flag in your mind saying "Hey maybe I should stop being such and ******* on the forum". Tell the kid to get a lawyer and be smarter/safer the next time and go on about your business instead of giving him a rash of ****. Chances are this unpleasant experience is enough to slow him down. Hopefully this unpleasant experience on NoPistons, however, won't change his view of the site. Oh and your insurance rates are high because of years of statistics from thousands of people, including you and me...not this one kid.

Whoa whoa....1stgendreemer, can we relax a bit here?!
Kid, I feel for you, but I really don't know what you can do other than bite the bullet and take it...it's gonna cost you a lot now and a lot for awhile(insurance upcharges), but twice the speed limit is pretty high, I personally think the 10MPH at 30 is a joke, there are plenty of turns around my area that are rated for 25-->10MPH that cops take at the 40MPH speed limit.
I hope everything works out for you, man. But hey, they say you have to learn young or you never will, so I guess maybe this will work out for the best?

Wow all this pounding on the dude. lets see ...all the kills we post and then support each other . All the mod and go fast **** we have.And we ONLY run fast legally on the track>>>.BS.
By they way , how many have actually lost it cause of hot ******* , racing,weather...its all based on descisions. If your never dragged in the street then cast the stone. Believe me ,should you think your a driver at speed ,your an *** cause its the other guy who ***** it up, then your at fault cause you did it on public streets.(Example of the other guy...in car video on other post and thats on a track with bars in cars!)
When we were 17 we all did something like it. I plea that getting on it isnt done in heavy traffic, malls, schools zone (in front of the police).
Oh yea umm like the church preaches abstinence ......vs safe sex....keep it on the track?( But how real is that)
I am now getting of the soap box....oh and kid...you had to know what the penalties in money / liscence could've been cause some of your buds probably got hit before you this time. I lived in the Bay Area and you cant even play the music loud in the car there.
picking up trash on 610 for the next 20 saturdays will keep you from hot footing.

like said so many posts before EVERYONE on here is guilty of speeding at one point or another so those saying he deserves to wreck should check themselves because you too speed probably daily be it double the speed limit or 5 mph over speeding is speeding so yeah the kid fucked up and got caught hauling *** dont flame him because honestly does him losing his lisence mean that much to you personally?
