We weren't being unsafe either. Some peeps just get jealous when they see some people having fun.

Anyway, sorry, but uckf 'em! I pay my fare share of taxes, and I have the right to push the limits. I was fully aware that if a chipper saw me, I was in hot water. We are big boys here, and we are individuals. Every man for himself, if you know what I am saying.

That said, some moron crossed into my lane on the way down the hill, and nearly hit me (On a straight). Damn fools. What about the idiots stopped in the middle of the damn road looking at the wild hogs? Man...what city slickers!

I had a great day. Damn that was alot of cars up there. Food was awesome too!

Andy, I saw your car in the lot all day, but for some reason, I never ran into you at the picnic. =/

When I was coming down I saw the chippy and figured he was coming to pay a visit to you guys, so I waved. Hopefully that made him a little happier...

Andy, you just said that your brakes almost failed. The other guy was driving as fast as you on RE92's.

You are a big boy, but when you come with a group of people, you are jeopardisng everyone, not just youself. That is exactly what happened.

Lots of cars look almost identical. So what if someone got in trouble because of you?

I know that you don't give a hoot about that, but come on...

I know that RE92's are ****ty from what everyone else has said but from driving alot on them i know what they can take. Also the only time when i was going out of my lane was when i was able to see the turn ahead of me, never on a blind turn. Thats one of the advantages of hami during the day you can see what ahead of you while at night your guesing what kind of a turn it is.

I think the point is, if people misbehave and tear up the roads (figuratively) we might not be allowed back. We don't want that to happen, right?

why would we even have our annual meet at a place where the roads are so insanely tempting to drive fast on? that seems pretty counterintuitive to me. how are we going to get the locals to look favorably upon us when nearly every single one of us has pushed it on that road? and some do it a lot more than others.

my point is that if the meet was in a more "normal" location, people wouldn't be as inclined to drive so fast.

I am thinking that some others must have been screwing around on the park complex. Just because I was brave enough to come forward and post an inquiry as to who was cruising with me, the finget automatically gets pointed at me.

Why else would "Ranger Rick" have become upset? The highway is not his jurisdiction. We were a good mile down the road before we ski dattled.

I am sure that Dan and I weren't the only ones driving spiritedley down that grade.

If nobody really did speed or screw around on the park compound, than they have no grounds to deny a return next year. As long as everything was cleaned up. If they were to deny it, then they would be on the recieving end of a lawsuit, and that is for sure.

Sorry if I made your guys upset, but if you are going to point fingers, you had better get quite a few more hands!

Yeah... the CHP guy said that people were driving wrecklessly in the park and on the road (prolly talking about that straight away).
