Steve, with power comes the temptation to use it all the time, you basically dont have to cos you know that not alot can keep up with you (and yes i do 30mph in 30mph zones and it totally p155es people off but when your car stops in 8 meters at 30mph it also gives them the inscentive not to see you try it ;o))
I had some guy overtake me in a clapped out escort rst (standard one), i had turned right at the lights, carried on down the road at 30mph and indicated to turn right again on a slight left hand bend, there is a junction on this bend and a car was ready to pull out, mr im so good with my rst overtook me!!! on the rhs of my car whilst i was about to turn right and the car was about to pull out of the junction, now he must have been doing 80-90MHP in a 30MPH BUILT UP area outside a busy pub and fast food shop, now if you call that sensible ownership of a performance car then f**k me! (not literally thou!!)
YOU are not the only person out there, there are people who dont want to die because you have a death wish (or no brain cells, its the same thing) so if you think its good fun then think again, wait till you knock someone down then see how funny it is when they are in hospital and your waiting to see if they live or die...... it happens and it could happen to you.
