Yer welcome, bro!
Gee, wish I could be as cool as you...

Thinking about it, if you weren't in Texas, I'd stake my honorary nephew in a race with you. 9 ball, 8 ball, banks, one pocket...your choice of game, race to 9 games won, BCA rules, 9' Diamond tournament table. And to think, I don't even know your speed...you could be an APA 6 for all I know.

Pool...a game of skill that equipment plays a minimum role. It's the indian, not the arrow, although the top Indians have very straight arrows in their quiver. Pool pros are a fickle lot....they pretty much play with whoever gives them the best sponsorship.

Fast car? Mere check writing. Not that pro drivers aren't skilled, but like in F-1, where most drivers are skilled, it's pretty much a follow the money game with equipment playing a major role.

So..wow, you have a fast car and like to brag about it while saying those here who make other choices suck.

Gee, I'm sooo impressed!
