    Yeah. My backyard fronts a major street. One day when you guys see a news story about some whacko putting out homemade spike strips it was probably me.

    Caltrops are a real, simple to fabricate thing that "fall" off of vehicles all the time........

    I can hear the FnF wannabes in Colorado Springs at all hours of the night as well. Won't bother referring them to CSP as I've been singularly unimpressed with CSP ever since a traffic stop where the officer noticed my CCW permit and asked (somewhat belligerently) why I felt a need to carry. I'd rather call EPSO or CSPD.

    The little town I live in is pretty quiet with very little traffic. But I swear about 1/2 the people who live here must be deaf judging by the need of some of them to play their multi-thousand $$ car stereos so loud. But, at least they drive slow when they go down my street.

    Sometimes I can hear the bass from their car stereos before they even turn off the highway or I can hear them from another street I can see across a field and a pond (at least 1/4 mile away).

    It doesn't happen a lot, but it happens at least once almost every day. If they were playing George Strait or Patty Loveless or someone similar it wouldn't bother me.

    I've been tempted to find out which is louder...their stereo or a .308 round fired thru the engine block.

    I have theory that loud stereos, loud exhaust, aftermarket excessively bright vehicle lights, etc, can provide people who feel marginalized an avenue to feel empowered without excessive cost- "I may live in a ghetto apartment, with ghetto roommates, and have a ghetto job, but for $500 at Car Toys or the local muffler shop, you can hear my 1995 Honda Civic from a mile away!!!"

    There is something seriously wrong when people play their car stereos so loudly that it gives me a headache or I can't talk with someone in my passenger seat while in a car 20 feet away with my windows up. Same goes for motorcycles with loud pipes -- I have lost all sympathy for the "loud pipes save lives" crowd in the past few years due to guys blasting up the road with their bikes sounding like an F-16 on afterburner.

    It is EXTREMELY SAD that those FOO do not even have any circuit/track time, and they bitch around on a street.
    I bet @Ridge here can beat the shit out of em on a real circuit.

    Professional driver can circle around the semi-professional driver.
    Semi-Professional driver can circle around the street wannabe.


    One turd had a N?rburgring decal on his VW Golf , and I asked "Have you drove on the Nordschleife?"
    he had no fucking idea what that meant. He goes. "That is Nurburgring."

    Nurburgring has many sections, and armature FastnFurious turds only knows Nurburgring (the north side). Most of pros do 'GP Strecke' part of N?rburgring.

    Hmm. All I got when I read this was that guys with small dicks are trying to compensate for them.
