Ah, youthful exhuberance ...
However, you might want to know that street racing on NY roads carries VERY severe penalties. I mention this because in post 19 you indicated you were pushing your car hard and even racing on the highway.
If caught, you WILL do jail time, they confiscate and sell your car.
See this thread:
NEW STREET RACING LAWS ! In New York.
Spirited driving is one thing, racing is a whole 'nother matter.
Just thought you might want to be aware of this...
