To all of those who are criticizing this story, let
those who are without guilt themselves cast the first
stone. Although I do not condone road racing like this

stop signs when I was in High School. After all, for
those who are increasing the HP and TQ of your
engines, are you doing this Just so you can reach the
speed limit quicker?????
