You can catch her all the time, just gettin’ her kicks now
(Go granny, go granny, go granny, go)
With her four speed stick and a four-two-six now
(Go granny, go granny, go granny, go)
The guys come to race her from miles around
But she’ll give ‘em a length, then she’ll shut ‘em down

And everybody’s sayin’ that there’s nobody meaner than
The little old lady from Pasadena
She drives real fast and she drives real hard
She’s the terror of Colorado boulevard
It’s the little old lady from Pasadena

No, they bump the side of the rear of the vehicle to make it spin out.

It slows the perp vehicle down and with several cop vehicles they can some times pin the perp vehcle down so the chase stops.

And they re still routinely putting down 320+mph passes. Nothing like watching Ashley Force putting down a 323 mph 4 second pass at Epping. Absolutely mind blowing.

I had a blowout on the freeway the other day. I installed the donut spare by the side of the road. The next day I drove to my favorite Hispanic tire shop. Got a fresh used tire mounted and the donut back under the van for $40. Cash. No receipt. A year ago it would have been $25. Am I part of the problem?

I was slowed down by the car ahead of me on a country road a few years ago. I was thinking “Who is this idiot?”. When I passed her I realized it was my 85 year old mother-in law! I did not recognize the car beforehand.

No, contrary to that stupid Congress Critter the other day, almost EVERYBODY in the US is cognizant of the concept, threat and practice of Inflation. [Except maybe Yellin’ and Powell]

Janet Guthrie is a mere 84. They probably would have never caught her.

Nope, it was the joyless Reid.

She’s way smarter than any ‘Rat Congress Critter. But they would all agree with her.

I lost interest when the NHRA shortened up to 1000 feet for the nitro classes

From what I heard it was either that or slow down the cars, because at 1/4 mile they were getting too fast for the available shutdown at most tracks.

All I know is that her cartoons/memes always say what I’m thinking! Must be a, ‘Middle-Aged Woman Thang!’ :)

Muffled screams from the trunk could be either Husband and/or Children, depending upon the day.

Maybe the kidnapped Mother In Law? LOL!
