What's On My Mind Today

http://youtu.be/-bfA0Mh1CnQ

Maybe I should do an Amazing Atheist style video response to this post.

First of all:  how about some video of the dyno pull showing this massive horsepower.  You can afford the Corvette, you can afford to mod it.  You can afford to get it dynoed.

And you can afford to plunk down $20 at a track and do this there instead of endangering the public!  You get a swell piece of paper with loads of numbers on it showing how awesome you are and if you really are 1500 horses, they should all be white slips.  It's called put up or shut up.

Or Speed Week on the Bonneville Salt Flats.  Just not on the highway.

Or you could go to a road course.  You would be the jerk who does not pay attention to the blue flags when everybody piles up behind you in the twisties because all you can do is go in a straight line.  You pull way away on the straights, and then everyone who can drive piles up behind you on the curves.  On second thought, DON'T go to the road course.

I was amazed at how few comments addressed the issue of racing in public.  Maybe he does go to the track, maybe he kicked all their asses at Speed Week.  But if he had, I'm thinking he wouldn't be making videos of being on the highway.  Because I'm thinking if you compete at the dragstrip or learned the rules to drive on a road course, you would have got it out of your system and wouldn't do it on the highway.
