I don't know if the guy was real or not. But the entertainment value was outstanding. If it was a set up, the guy should be writing fiction. It had a wealthy Borat thing going for it.

I was on the floor.:D

OK, here is a question:

Let us say the majority find a poster to be a troll/punk/dimwit/bastard or what have you, why then do many find it necessary to hand him his a$$ instead of just ignoring him ?

Generally speaking. Not pointing any fingers.

I haven't crashed any car, ever. I'm 41 years old, have been driving cars since 1982, and I certainly don't drive like "babushka", to use a Russian word that I know.

I will say that I've never had my '85 928S2 past 145 mph. At that speed it was rock solid. But if you ever get the chance, you should try doing barrel-rolls in a 727.

-Don't do this below FL200. Turn your transponder to "off" for a few seconds [turning off the altitude encoding just raises suspicions...], and make sure you have at least 280 knots on the clock! You don't want to accelerate-stall a 727! Pop the speed brake lever out of its detent, and the roll full aileron to the left. Add rudder as necessary, and MAINTAIN BACK PRESSURE! You'll find that you will keep the maneuver coordinated if you use rudder to start the roll, then ease off through 90 degrees...but the start feeding it again at the 180 degree point. You'll lose about 700 feet doing this, but if you do it right you will roll back to level right back on your altitude. A good pilot can reach down to the pedastal and flip the transponder back on- and ATC will never know what happened.

Heh!

CARS however are FAR more dangerous! I take my 928 seriously. That f*cker will kill me 200 times before an airplane ever will, despite my propensity for transport-catagory aerobatics! I suggest if you are driving cars into the Kremlin [literally...] on a regular basis that you reconsider your driving style. You don't want to wind up like the "Kapushka" that inhabits the famous tomb on "red square"....

B safe please!

Sounds to me like you have the two most common elements in the universe in spades.

Good points! Had not thought of that. :D

Ever since they learned to drive they have been a blight on, and a hazard to, the neighborhood. They are heavily into the whole street racing thing, with their little Civic fart cannon equiped pos's. Both have already wrecked at least a couple of them, and have had their licenses suspended at least once each. They speed recklessly through our dead end neighborhood, on streets barely wide enough to drive on if a car is parked on one.

They seem inordanently proud of the cars they have wrecked. They think Chris, my 19 year old son, is a pussy because he won't race them in his SC. They think he is a pussy because he has never wrecked it. They think he is a pussy because he drives at a speed through our 'hood that takes into consideration all of the kids and dogs running around. They think he is afraid to drive it "hard enough". I've invited them to come down to a track day with us, but that is for "pussies", too. What is it with that mentality? Is it just a Russian thing, or mere coincidence?

These clowns are going to kill some one some day. Hopefully just themselves. I am, however, pulling for them to make at least their 21st birthdays. I already have a birthday present picked out for both of them; the ass kicking of their young lives.

Seems like an investment opportunity here Jeff... You should consider purchasing a life insurance policy on the twins. At their young age, it certainly wouldn't cost much, and the payoff should be coming quick! :D

i think it's safe to say, that either way, you are considered a turd sandwich by just about everybody on this board

I'm starting to like the little fella... He's very entertaining to say the least.
I really like the VW kit car he and the little lady are seen climbing into!

Give the new guy a break...two "jet fokkin' black" eyes, and he's OK in my book :)
