I had a great Saturday - me and my buddy did our areas Toy Run Bike and Car Show me in the Z and him in his Factory Five '65 Cobra. We made a 80 mile trip and took 2 hours..........a lot of twistys and police escort the entire way - we were topping 75mph at times got to go through all the red lights it was a blast!! We got back to the show and had a great BBQ lunch and talked cars and bikes.

My buddy deceided to come over to my house with his wife and tighten up his header and some dumb 19 year old chick pulled out right in front of him. He and his wife hand built this '65 Cobra in their garage and every nut and bolt they put in..........3 months of work and the front of the car is in bad shape. I was so bummed out for him - but I'll tell how much of a trooper he is. I called him up Sunday and asked him if he and his wife were up for a motorcycle ride into 3 states and he said "let's go". Now after a front impact I might be a little nervous getting on a motorcycle but he did not even blink...............

I've gotta give him a "atta boy" ! I only heard him say "damn" one time..........

The chick got the ticket needless to say

Man what a shame....I hope the Cobra owner didn't get a ticket for not having his car under control........

I can only wonder how the dumb chick describes your friend to her friends.

She was probably too busy texting.

? I don't think that applies in this situation. Otherwise you could ticket both sides of every wreck.

I understand the principle but it is physically impossible to have enough control over your car to stop it in an instant if a car jumps right out in front of you. We'd all have to be inching around at 2 mph otherwise.
