I'm not worried about it though, cause If I saw you, you would be rockin your "fun" Insight for 20-30 hours a week.

this is true, my R1 is not stretched, i like being able to take corner, nor is it lowered, but i can still keep it down i might spin a bit if the tire aint hot but once i hook i'm gone, as for seein you in my insight odds are we would both be in traffic so it would be a pretty even race, i drive to and work only in it so unless you work 5:30 to 13:30 odds are you wont see me.

So now you have all these high powered cars that waste a shitton of gas but you're talking shit about us geting 25 mpg on the highway in 500-600whp cars?

while that may be true, whats wrong with that? He isn't using anyone, he posted an idea and everyone jumped on him. Any noob can get 75 or more replies, it's not hard especially the way this site jumps on people nowadays!
