You edited the post. When I looked at the first post there was no article linked, just an emoticon of a bouncing low rider.

Yeah, the link didn't show when I posted it for some reason. I had to go back and edit it.

Funny read. Some people can play an musical instrument without practice or music, some can sing without lessons, others may be able to drive well just by 'feel'. Doesn't make it the only or 'best' way to do it for eveyone. This tool saying it does only reflects on his own shallow arrogance, not his driving skills.

Thanks, I enjoyed that. I am a perfect example of someone who turns his fastest time trial lap in the first few and then "over thinks" everything trying to go faster.
