Heck, I won't even allow a vehicle on the highway to drive side-by-side with me for those reasons. (You know the type, takes them 30 miles to pass because they won't adjust their cruise control or they're lonely and want a "highway buddy.")Originally Posted by BigSwede

This is a pic from a page of a King Shocks brochure I have - this tells the tale perfectly...

When I saw this pic, it made me think of the bugs from Starship Troopers for some reason.
I saw the article when it hit the news, and I immediately thought, there goes another cool sport. They make so many rules and sanctions as to make it not fun. When I left high school in 97,we werent allowed to play dodgeball without helmets and mouthguards anymore, since some kids got a broken nose or busted lips. Our country is falling apart, can't climb a 6' ladder without a harness. I bought a 5 ft step ladder in San Diego, it had an extra non-functional plastic step on it, just for warning stickers!!! They had to be in English and Spanish and every square inch is covered with em. I will have to take a pic of whats left of the warnings, including the warning about the plastic step not actually being a functional step.
Where do we draw the line, is someone going to sue Chevy for the Corvette. Its only purpose is to go fast, faster than the speed limit, so they created it for you to break the law and possibly kill yourself and/or others, sounds like a good case for the California court system to me. Now that I think about it, I burned myself with a light bulb once...SAS swap, here I come!!!!!!!!!!
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

i was actually supposed to be at that event... got invited by a girl but ended up staying in town for a party... like everyone says its horrible and u can't really blame anyone except the people dumb enough to stand at a jump landing area... I've been following this a bit and no one from the race has anything to say about it, it's people who want to start problems and ban all things fun who are raising cane. the family and friends of the driver and the driver himself feel horrible about it. the family and friends of the victims are hurt and they don't wanna end the sport... people just need to learn where to be during a race
if ur gonna stand in front of a speeding vehicle, ur probably gonna get hurt

I just bought that movie around a week ago! I have friends that were in it because they shot the bug planet scenes near Casper, Wyoming. I see what you mean with your reference.

Funny you bring that up Bart. I am all for kids being out and about, but ya, they tend to be in the way, harm's way, more often than not. Products of their parents if you ask me.
I HATE when parents baby their brats. For the love of God, get them off the Playstation and outside where they can scrape up their elbows, bloody their noses, roll around in the grass and get dog !@#$ on your shorts, and get dirt behind their ears. Let them breathe in the elements so they can strengthen their immune systems and stave off infections and allergies. Mostly, off their fat arses so they can stay in shape. No Madden 2010 on 360.... get them a !@#$ing pigskin, not a new fan cooled, padded palm controller!!!!
In any case, kids are different than when I was young now and we are doomed. These little babied, inhaler sucking, braces wearing, coke bottle glassed, breast fed till 12 brats are tomorrow's leaders. THIS is why we are becoming a numb society. More safety. No fried food. Can't smoke here. Speed slower here. Can't say that word. You're not allowed to look at that. You touch me or call me that, I'll sue you.
The sign says do this, do that, don't do this....
No.
