Not that I condone it, but drifting on public streets is more dangerous IMO.
Yes. Removing your ability to maneuver in an emergency situation (which we can of course all predict) is not at all that bad.

No...it's being a poser because you're sitting in your car doing 4 miles per hour with your steering wheel hanging out your window like you're....ummm....posing for something...

I don't mean to insult, but someone could take this picture in the wrong light.

Do it themselves, not at 4MPH but at higher speeds and well i'm sure your mind can wonder.

I always believed in the, why take the chance for the public?

because my friend asked me to help him out by using my car?

If someone wanted to film a car chase scene in a movie and asked to use your car with you driving it, and you agree... in real life youre not chasing anyone, but in the film it seems like you are. does that make you a poser?

No, but there's a purpose there. Other than for attention, what's the purpose of these pics? Seriously. I don't get it. If it was for advertising, or for a video, or for some other reason I could understand spending the time and energy. Is it just entertainment? I'm a bit older (43) so maybe it's just a young guy thing...whatever...I don't know. And get off my lawn!!!

I'm 20, and I think it's retarded. The "car guys" that usually do this shit are the same ones who nearly cause accidents on every cruise and then don't understand why people hate them.

Whats the purpose of any hobby? seriously.

So youre saying theres a purpose in a movie but not in Chris' photography? If its your opinion to prefer film but not photography i respect your right to have an opinion but to say someones hobby has no purpose, i just cant respect that. How about he just generally enjoys it? How about hes looking to build his profolio? Live and let live man, youre 43. Hes 19. smh

So it's entertainment and to build his photography portfolio? I get that. That's why I asked. I still think it's completely retarded to hold a steering wheel out the window and ruins what would otherwise be a great photo, but whatever...that's just me...Great pics other than that.

LMAO, hold up. Has anyone on this thread been diagnosed with Down Syndrome or any other form of mental retardation? I doubt it. Misusing "retard" as a derogatory term like a 12 year old would demonstrates ignorance. Saying that while attempting to argue reason for your actions? I wish many, many luck for you for long time.

rig shawt... wut dat
