Nobody ran me over today but some shithead in a corolla almost wandered over a lane to get me. The **** must have been DUI because they had a problem sticking to a lane

Drove my FR-S today to pick up youngest granddaughter from school ...... picked up the older one later, due to her choir practice.

Thunder storms and a possibility of hail was predicted. Lightning knocked out some traffic lights ...... people got stupid ..... they can't count to three ...... it WAS my turn ..... another driver thought it was their turn ..... however, due to the responsive power, superb traction and my expert driving skills, I powered through the intersection and averted an accident.

The hail was just starting when I pulled my tin foil wrapped FR-S into the garage. I took ma-ma's tank on the other trip to pick up the other granddaughter.

I DID NOT CRASH ..... and the hail did not crash my FR-S .....

Destined for work, I drove my 86 a couple of days ago down the I-10 for about 30 miles and didn't crash.

No stop signs, no red lights... just moving along at 75 to 80 mph.

Such a great car, and I've not even modified it.

Monsoons on the highway this morning.


Crashes to the left of me.
Near misses to the right.
There I was safe in the middle with view.


Did not crash

Was hoping that @Ultramaroon would read it and get it stuck in his head. It is my new hobby.

On my way into work today, stopped at a light next to a Mustang GT who revved his engine while looking at me. I gave him the 'nod' of acknowledgement.

Light turns green. Mustang guns it. Fish tails and slides into a ditch on side of the road. I haven't even moved from the line yet..

..I did not crash.

Have to wonder just how busy a "Did not crash" thread would be on a Mustang forum. In fact there may not even be such a thing.
