By those terms my old 1980 celica gt was a speed demon. How stupid.

Police say the second car, driven by a man, was built for speed and included low-profile racing tires, a radar detector and a special tachometer to monitor the car's speed. That driver was also hurt. He was taken by ambulance to a hospital for treatment. He will now face charges-police say he was speeding when he lost control. They have not released his age or name

:lol: LMAO !!! :lol:

Does that mean if I put a radar detector and a tach in a Geo Metro that makes it a Race Car ??? :confused:

Yep, but don't forget the low profile racing tires! :lol:

[sean]

well I think that only makes it built for speed.

So, there on the same page in the local reports, is this one: http://www.local12.com/news/local/story/Car-Flips-on-I-275-Ramp-in-Blue-Ash/1HGA-sV_UU2_5znb3gtebA.cspx Now, isn't that a 'vette that is upside down? Yet, this article is very brief and non-spectacular in it's account when you compare it to the other one :confused:

I happen to know the guy that wrecked that 'Vette. He just bought it last week. Rumor has it, he didn't even have insurance on it.

He was at work, thursday morning, but left a little later.

I can tell you this, I never thought the guy was right (in the head).

"special tachometer to monitor the car's speed"

LMAO

[djom1cincy]

The news is such bs these days when reporting stuff. I love it when they report a crime from the hood. Most of the time its a description like this. A drive by shooting happen last night. The victim was killed by a mid 30's male with short hair driving a mustang. That sounds a lot like me or about 90% of the men on this board. They fail to put black male into the description ruling out one whole race of mid 30's males.

or a special tachometer for that matter:lol:
