Thanks again everyone...

... Chris, if it wasn't for the fact that I'll have to get an alignment afterward I'd say let's do it soon.

Jack,
I disabled my DRLs, so during the day Inferno looks like pure evil... everyone - and I mean everyone - gets out of my way when I pull up behind them.

Before Blackouts (BB), I would have to get a little 'aggressive' to get the '40mph in the fast lane on the Interstate' crowd to move over. Anno Blackouts (AB), I no longer have to do that - they just JUMP into the slow lane.

It intimidates everyone - even the Ricers

There is much to be said for a loud, low, totally black missile coming up 'at speed' behind you...
Stephen

p.s. Besides, I told you that I do not like

They move out of the way, to keep the rice from spreading to their car,lol. You know, they don't want that rice to overtake their car, like it did yours. Sorry, had too

Ah ha! But my "Rice" is packing a serious punch to the tune of almost 500rwhp (497 to be exact)

Out of 1000 cars that you past on the highway, how many are at 600bhp, I wonder?

Combined with 2.73:1 gears, I'll blow past them on the highway anyway. They have no choice in the situation.
