I think he has misinterpreted the Pilcrow you offered him as an apostrophe.

One of the first indicators of someone's level of education and their intellectual ability is their language skill, or lack thereof.

A few things separate Roger's actions from the rest of us sucky characters.

1 - He bragged about extended periods of time cruising at extra legal speeds, not a 2 minute dash to "see what she'll do". The longer at those speeds, the better the chance that something unpredictable will happen.

2 - He took a picture of the dash while traveling at 110 MPH. Sorry, but that shows impaired judgement.

3 - He admits to being 71. Do you really think it's OK for a Septuagenarian to be zipping along at 60MPH over the posted speed limit?

Oh and in case you think we're a bunch of pantywaists, we'll start a separate thread about highway adventures with the law.

I'll recount the time I experienced a police roadblock in my 1970 Ford Maverick. ( Don't laugh, it was highly modified ).

Of course I was 19 at the time.

And that's the point of this thread.

Grow the f*uk up.

Only think missing was a youtube video of his cannonball run..

Morgan Shepard is 74 and still racing, and gets to the garage on a pedal bike and leaves on it.. but at least he gets his thrills on the track..

I think the problem people are having with rogers joyride is that he comments on how others are stupid to do silly things on the road..
Kinda like the older car guys that complain about street racers but they also did it, but it was "different" when they did it.. lol

Roger is or "claims" he is well off with bunch of rich buddies.. need to get your rocks off, run the silver state challenge.. 90 miles of flat out ..

It tis comical the photo of 110, but wait texting is the devils work..lol
I don't care if he ran 140mph on the public road if it was 2-4am with no one on the road . but day time.. were the new trend of painting cars earth tones.. it's just nuts..

Of course that's when those big brown rats we call deer are all over the place.

How'd you like to hit one of them at 140MPH? Man talk about a viral Youtube video!

Then again, it would definitely be the end of the problem as far as having a demented old man zipping around the interstates.

What an amazing male specimen this man is.. the skill set, countless talents and incredible intestinal fortitude is absolutely magnificent. The car owner couldn't possibly have the vehicle transported like normal human being, it had to be driven by Roger, and only Roger, because of his tremendous driving capabilities and fearless cunning abilities to outrun the apocalyptic hurricane floods of biblical end time proportions. Dozens of barely legal females tore their panties off as he drove by at mach 1, if it weren't for his need for speed he'd have taken the time to nod and wink.. those poor girls.

Deer lives matter..
It be nice if everyone that needed to get that rush of speed had a way to do it on a track.. but it isn't for most.. I'll take clipping a deer or moose/ect and only harming myself, than doing it and harming someone's family member(s)..

I'd be a lier if I said I never did the 2am foot through the floor boards , or the 3-4 am line up and go 1320 .
was it smart, nope, was it legal nope, was it fun hellya, would I do it again.. not sure.. I think I'd take a open track day first, but If someone handed me the keys to a super car at 2-3 am, well , I am weak..

Wait!

No one said anything about girls tearing off their panties.

Forget everything I wrote.

On second though, isn't the top speed of the a stock Fiero 115 MPH or so?

Maybe they wouldn't tear off their panties for that but how about a little navel exposition?

I'd take a little navel exposition.

BTW, this is one of those times where spelling is especially important because a naval expedition is something quite different -
