Am I turning into a grumpy old man???

[Monkeymagic]

I was driving to work today. As I came off the motorway onto an A road I dropped into behind a Mitsi Evo v111 MR??? The lad kept ragging away then dropping off everytime he did the thing threw flames out of the exhaust. Now I know we are all different and like different things. I know that sometimes I am like the original grumpy old man, but what the hell is the point in that?
I noticed that my windscreen was getting wet I thought it was raining, I then realised it was moisture off his exhaust. So being a tit I seized the opportunity to overtake and make a point....
This upset him some what as he came rocketing up behind me exhaust popping as he did so... No class.

Well done for the overtake, but don't get drawn into boy racer nonsence it's just not woth it. Get his address off the DVLA and stuff a potato up his exhaust

[Monkeymagic]

I am not a boy racer thats for sure, I had just washed the car and didn't want to get it covered in oily muck...ha ha.
Mate it would be a bloody big spud you'd need a melon, huge exhaust.. He would have seen the over take on the van infront of us was on if he wasn't messing about making his exhaust pop.

Typical ricer behaviour I find.

[Monkeymagic]

[Monkeymagic]

I had a **** tail gating me today I had the baba in the back fast asleep and I'm doing 70, I'm overtaking on the dual carriageway so every right to be in that lane

I speed up slightly and still on my tail as I overtake more cars, what does this prick do ? Undertakes !! Like a whippet snapper I boot it and as he's in the inside he had to slam the anchors on so not to rear end another car, what a prick !
I've got a baby on board !
I gracefully pull in and let him pass, get the evil look until I point to him to pull over...he wouldn't

What a fekin prick typical tourist maker I'm guessing judging by his m4 motorway style driving of under taking

I've got a baby on board !

Umm...tell this story to your missus and then tell us who she thinks is the "prick".

Think about the bairn next time and just let the idiot past you.

Having kids has slowed my driving down lots, let the idiots get on with it
Race at the track, marshals, drs, fire extinguishers etc that aren't there straight away on the road

My 4 year old calls my S2 the "Fast car" and is always asking me to go fast. I am currently teaching him about spped limits. Weird I know but as already mentioned there are some real noshers on the roads and I do not want him to be one.
I have never had any points on my licence and hopefully will never have.
I like a spirited drive but the race track is the place for going beyond your driving ablities.

My 5 yr old daughter tells me I don't drive fast enough!

[Monkeymagic]

Kids love em. My son keeps going on about 4 wheel drive and diff lockers! He thinks my dads 40 year old land Rover can drive over anything etc.
He also has a cheky habit of putting my diff lock on when I'm not looking and gigling to himself when I steer and it sounds like I have square wheels.

Gee thanks why didn't I think of that as I didn't go above 75 ! it's because the baby was on board I let him past as mentioned
