Wow... this is one deep thread...:huh:
:thinking: Hmmm....
1) I drove and modified a base model 1991 Suzuki Swift following my conviction related to streetracing. And I thought I was sort-of-cool at the the time. :doh:
2) I have serious issues with self-esteem; my spastic xenophobia is no doubt rooted in strong self-hatred.

I too have
seriously considered suicide in the past and questioned why my parents bothered raising me. I'd like to think I'm getting better.
3) In reference to (1), I successfully got said Suzuki Swift up to ±110 mph (actual) on I-5 South, outside of Los Banos, CA....with one passenger and 110 lbs of luggage on board.
4) With the exclusion of takeoff and landing, I flew a then-experimental class 2-seat ultralight aircraft from Santa Rosa Municipal Airport to Half Moon Bay and back- at the age of 8 [!]
