If you read my initial post I posted 2 questions at the bottom THAT is what the discussion is about NOT who will race me where and when.



Do you picture yourself as one of those old guys with a fast car putting around?

There is the question in case you missed it. I'm pretty sure I won't be driving an "exotic" car at that age... probably something comfortable but it's hard to say what cars will be like in another 30 years.

He was doing EXACTLY 80km/hr on the highway. He had to have had his cruise set. Gave him the ricer nod and he just looked forward and kept on his merry way going slower than every other car on the highway.

2nd was a WS6 Trans Am with Alaska plates and huge rubber on it had to be in the 300 width on the back, guy driving had to be in his 60's or up same thing doing 90 same thing ricer nod same reaction "Stare ahead do not acknowledge the ricer in the green civic"

Last was a Corvette, 60+ gave him a taste of the BOV and he just smiled and waved and carried on his merry slow way.

Do you think guys like that ever drive their cars or are just now able to afford a dream car and just putt around town admiring themselves in the reflection of other cars passing them?

Do you picture yourself as one of those old guys with a fast car putting around? I have no idea what I'll be driving when I'm retired but I will tell you if it can go fast.... I'll be going fast.
