Default Testrossa C3 and morons.

On the way home from the Genesis concert Fri. night I hooked up with a guy and his wife who were driving their Testarossa. We were coming out of the parking lot together and got a chance to talk and share some auto talk. When we got to the 427 a C6 decided to join in but he wanted to race and kept coming up on our tails, darting ahead etc. We started laughing, continuing at 100 kph. To clarify we were not laughing with the C6 driver but at him. This racing mentality has to stop, btw we did call in to report the lic. plate. It is morons like that guy who gives the rest of us a bad name, oh and it wasn't a "kid" either.

I heard the Sun and Star critics sort of panned it, I guess they had never been to a Genesis concert before or were there with the crowd because it was great and the crowd loved every minute. I had backstage passes and got up and personal with the stage and below for how it all was put together - bloody amazing. Still can't believe how short Phil Collins is, I have to get the pics off my camera. He and Roger Daltrey are about the same height so take a look at my avatar as that's me and daltrey and you'll get an idea of Phil (I'm just over 6' tall).

I hope the C6 driver was not one of us.

Sounds like another guy going through a change of life. If he ever grew up enough to get to the stage to have one.

Unfortunately there will always be some a$$holes who feel the need to do stupid things. The net, net result is that we all eventually get painted with the same brush, sadly.

I am sure that this person couldn't have been one of our group.
