It is good to be Tsar...!
To: pobeda1945
he does get to do fun stuff
And it keeps him in the news, appearing “strong”, without boring the people with policy details.

No, I think Vlad is a helluva man, a very dangerous and cunning one, especially in comparison to what we've got now running our country.

He has more cajones than our dear leader !
> Is he overcompensating for something?
To: vladimir998
I think it has something to do with the way Putin swings his left arm when he walks.

Another silly physical endurance stunt by Putin to impress the
muzhiks. It's a Russian thing.
Even if it's not all that impressive. Almost everyone who's ever been on the autobahn in Germany has driven that speed or close to it.
To: pobeda1945
That's nuthin’, our Zer0 has driven the car of state off the Marxist cliff while golfing.

I’ve had my old LS-400 up to 130, and there was still pedal left.
To: Blueflag
Exactly. Just head west out of Munich. No matter how fast you drive, SOMEONE will pass you. 220 kph is just a nice cruise.
Boy, you ain't kiddin'. My first time on the autobahn, I was doing 225 and was passed by a soccer mom driving a Peugeot wagon full of kids.

“While one can be jealous of the opportunity to drive an F1 car at 150 mph, one should not be impressed. 150 mph is cruising. You barely feel it.”
My thought, too. Looks like he was afraid to put his foot in it. sd

brewcrew,
there are several drivers schools around the country like the one at Sebring, Florida where you can get trained to drive race cars.
You want to bad enough, check it out.

“Is he overcompensating for something?”
Are you kidding me? I turn 60 in 11 days, I'd give my left (well you know) to take a Formula 1 car around the track! Would you accuse me of the same? Hell I still want to ride a Harley some day, is that another overcompensation? Men are a strange creature they may go to extremes just to retrieve a little of they're youth and excitement. They can't help it, It's in they're DNA. I've never heard a woman say “Hold my beer and watch this”
Correction!
Many years ago my buddies girlfriend had drank enough she decided to take a turn on the bucking barrel. Those were the last words she spoke before saddleing the barrel. There was a loud scream and a sick thud as here nose an saddle horn met in mid air.

I agree with you. If Pooty-Poot wants to show he is a real man let’s see him get on a GSX1300R Suzuki Hyabusa and push to 150mph or more.
