The only thing that I saw was the pasted conversation of you talking to blurr, it was in your own words, not mine.

now that i think about it, you should keep driving during the weekend with the "other people doing the same thing" may be you'll eliminate eachother and not some innocent person.

"I drive up to my personal limitations, no further. If something seems hairy, I back off. Sure I have drifted my front LSD equipped 6MT WRX around corners at 100+, but I can control and recover from a slide." -BADWRX
Andy and Dan had the same mentality. Andy parted out and moved away. Dan learned alot, and became a really good, responsible driver. Lets just hope you go that route someday. A session of race school might teach you what to do when you care understeers or oversteers, but they cannot teach you want to do when a Dually is coming the the other way taking up all the road, or another dumbass us is doing what you're doing and coming the other way and hit you head on. Too many complications. If you want the safest time to drive, drive at 1-4am. Weekday afternoons, just like DLUX said, will have people, family going home and even cyclists/motorcyclists.

-have i ever exceeded the speed limit? of course. find me someone who never has.
- this is a driver awareness thread, specifically about "spirited" backroad driving. you just admitted that you don't do it on the weekend, but rather on weekday afternoons. i'm just wondering where you get the logic to but that thought together in your head.
-and when did this thread turn into an environmental awareness thread? what do my mods or anyone's mods in regards to whether they are CARB legal have to do with people driving like idiots on narrow back roads?
i have a great time with my WRX, and so do most people on the board. i don't need mommy and daddy to buy me an M3 and an STi.
