Default Been there, done that, lost my license!

Well back in the golden days of my youth, I had my license at last, maybe 6 months after I got it, brain lock! Yep, driving my Mom's 56 Pontiac Chieftan (I think that was the name), my friend had a 57 Chieftan? with three deuces, we had an attack of the stupid.... we raced on the street (stupidity for sure), got caught, lost our licenses. Learned a vauable lesson, if you want to race.... take it to the track. Good luck with your "track race".
