Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
). Even your state troopers were nice
You actually meet some Texicans . He!! I thought most everyone here was from another State or from Mexico . You must off not spent much if any or dam sure not enough time around the Houston area . Come on back and spend some quality time on the Houston area roads and freeways , you will think differently ---------------------------Oh I know there is a lot of nice folk here but you have to go to a small town to find them . Hey CFast if you do move here make sure that where you live is about a one and a half to a two hour drive to the nearest big city ( like Houston , Dallas , San Antonio , Austin ) you will probably be just fine . If I live long enough I am gonna try to move to a small town (a town that is dieing or turning into a ghost town ) Where I live now was a small town until that fine life style of living in big city caused every to move out to the suburbs . I use to be ably to tell where Houston stop and the country began , not anymore .
) could emit in 10 seconds! At dyno days, see what they can do in a couple seconds.
I dont think I said anything about TDR members in my last post Rusty and if your talking about the LSTDR members thats a pretty small group of people. That all kinds of TDR members your talking about is a very ,very , very small percentage of people in the greater Houston,Galveston area. He!! it so small of a number it wouldn't put a dot on a map . I have to put up with a lot more people a WHOLE lot more people than that everyday and it does take a real big bush ( and on occasion a red brush ) to paint that picture . When the last time you stood out in traffic ( much less in a set up ) with a orange flag Rusty? Wont find to many nice folk there . This ain't the Galveston , Houston area you grew up in in the fifties ,sixties . seventies , much less the eighties , it has change and not for the better either and I know cause I have lived here are my life and I am not that much younger than you but if you don't believe me I can let you talk to some one over eight years old that has lived here all his life and he can tell you how much things have change . I have kin that lived in small towns no where close to a big city and I do spend some time in these little towns and the country folk there are the real nice people . Well he!! when you pass them on the street everyone will wave at you and pull to the side of the road and let you go by if your going faster than they are , wont find that happening around here . Around here they will shoot your the finger and run you off the road and you might just get shot too and if your going to slow for them ( lets say seventy ) they will just pass you on the shoulder .Originally posted by RustyJC
Painting with a pretty broad brush, aren't we, Wayno? I can name all kinds of TDR members in Harris & Fort Bend counties who are "nice folk".

Hey Joe I saw a story on TV about a year ago where if I remember right it was 48 Hours came to Dallas and did a comparison on two auto. They put all kind a instruments in the autos to check to see witch one was polluting the most . They found a old black man that had a 1978 Ford Fairmont and a Suburbanite Female with her all most new Chevy Suburban and let them both do what ever the do for I think it was for two weeks . The old black man work'd at a tire store a couple of miles from his house . He went to the store once a week and didn't travel far from his house when he went anywhere . The female Suburbanite use to live in the city but now drives a good distance to her job now back in the city and was all ways going here and there and running around a lot . Guess who was putting out the most pollution------The Suburbanite female in her gas hog lead sled I mean Suburban . Just thought I would pass that story along . I see it everyday and more and more people are telling me they notice it to . Lots of Suburbanites that are living in my area now are driving to work in Houston everyday and a lot are females driving a big SUV or a four door truck some 4x4s going to work by their self and here I am five miles from my job car pooling every chance I can or driving a motorcycle to work .
Every time I get behind the wheel on a Houston area highway I risk it ---- getting injured or dead because of all the no driving people out there . I ain't got time to worry about people with guns and I wont even mention about the risk I have to put up with for eight to ten hours a day at my job .
