| Comment | Don't get me wrong. I think that's dickhead behaviour myself. When I say I'm a car and motorcycle guy; I like the engineering and learning about how all the physics and mechanics work so I can be a better driver and rider.
The people I'm friends with who share my interest are generally not interested in trying to garner attention from other people but just sharing a hobby.
When it comes to reckless or careless driving, that's isolated to track days and we also talk about avoiding driving or riding on saturday nights because that's when the real dangerous drivers seem to come out in force from your boy racer who wants to show his car off and hasn't clocked that no one cares yet to the middle aged men in SUVs and BMWs wanting to flaunt their klarna finance.
I have one down my neighbourhood who redlines every friday and saturday down my street at about 11pm on the dot. Why he does it, I'll never know. However, his car doesn't sound like it's been remotely tuned or modified so I think there's just a stigma that loud car / motorcycle = tiny dick seeking attention. |
