So, this is the second accident in Connecticut with multiple fatalities involving teenagers driving Subaru WRX's.

What's the problem here guys? You have anti-lock brakes, all-wheel drive, etc.

You know what I had when I was your age? A 68 Mercury Cougar with lousy brakes, lousy suspension, rear wheel drive, and the only safety equipment was a lap belt which I rarely wore.

I too drove like an asshole, drag raced, burned out, etc. I'm still alive to talk about it. Y'all need to learn how to drive.



Also dude, what kind of parents buy a teenager a car like that?

That's because you had to appreciate speed with a car like that. You had to choose your battles wisely 'cause there was only so much that a 30 year old motor could take.

For you, "pushing of the envelope" just meant that tomorrow you and your co-pilot would be pushing the car back into the driveway with a Ford Escort station wagon.

For them, pushing the envelope means... you're dead.

Dude, remember that? I was such an idiot back then. I think the other half of my brain started working sometime in the year 2005


How did I NOT know how to set the floats on a Holley carburetor? How could I not know that adding 'Trick Shift' to your transmission once a week would make all the seals burst? Dumbass.

I drove my brother's WRX around last Friday because he borrowed my car. Man, that thing has some giddyup! Get it to about 4,000 RPM and it really takes off. Fun car.

That kid in the accident was undoubtedly driving like an asshole. He crashed another car 6 months ago driving like an asshole. My brother told me his mom was a big-shot attorney and she bought him the brand new WRX after he smashed up his last car. Spoiled brat.

I know, right? Everyone knows the 'ol "Trick Shift = Burst Seals" equality.

God, you are dumb.

And man, I made a root beer float with my Holley carb and didn't even run into any problems.

Remind me again never to ask you to help me reset my alternator dingleberries.

Dude, 2002 and up cars dont have dingleberries.



* I hate me some spoiled brats. It's always too bad though when they take somebody with them.

I remember one douche in high school with a brand new Z-28 Camaro, ended up putting his girlfriend through the windshield.



you got to cruise easy baby.

Also, man you might find this amusing.

Tripp had all these rust holes at the bottom of the doors on his truck so it wouldn't pass inspection...... or at least he said that's why it wouldn't pass inspection -- I'm more in favor of, because it's a giant piece of s**t.

Anyways, so he called me the other day saying that he fixed his truck (still hasn't tries getting it passed though). I remember at one point he mentioned welding a piece aluminum over the holes; so I was like hmm... way to go man.

Instead though, he put fiberglass mesh over the holes and pasted it down with roofing tar.

It looks ridiculous man. Riiiiiiiidiculous. I can only imagine on a hot day getting that s**t all over your pants.

Dude remember racing down Griffin road with the Galaxie and the Cougar when that person was backing out of the driveway. Or the time we raced my Z28 and the Escort and I jumped that intersection and tilted sideways in the air. Were still here to talk about it. Kids these days are douchebags that dont know how to drive.

Dude, that was ridiculous.
