We were somewhere north of 120 in a souped up car from the auto shop class. Speedometer looked like it was trying to register over 130, but we both chickened out when the front shimmy became a roaring bounce.

The engine in that car ended up in a different car, and ended up placing in the top 3 at UIL state competition (second place I think).

Life really looks different once you realize that one is not invulnerable.

That, and answering questions from parents about why you threw out a perfectly good pair of underwear, if no girls or alcohol was involved.

Sounds like good times! We would have known each other if we grew up in the same area. Hell, I would have known a lot of people on this thread.

For the record, I now know I’m not invulnerable.
