The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working

[ucMP3]

^^You must have a different Jeep than most of the SUVs I've seen. It feels like we're gonna roll if we go around a corner even a little bit fast in my buddy's Blazer.

Are you able to at least double the "suggested" corner speed signs? I was able to triple one...

lol, have you ever ridden in a wrangler? It's not a f'ing blazer... (hand)

Wranglers corner decent. They have a fair amount of body roll (they're made for suspension travel, not lateral g-forces) but they hold pretty well. He never said his jeep handled better than your car, just that it corners well.

And btw, tripling suggested speed limits is a bad idea. Just sayin...

 

[PrinceValorum]

No, I haven't ridden in one. I don't read about suvs, trucks, offroading, etc.

I wasn't trying to have a pissing contest, I was just wondering how well they cornered.

Yeah, I didn't say I did it every time...(shrug)

 

[iSpoon]

Those corners on the Mohican run weren't exactly set up for anyone to travel them super fast as it was. So keeping up with them wasn't exactly a super feat of racing. I haven't come to the point where I've been nervous about losing wheel contact with the ground.

I think he meant that it would 'feel' like you're gonna fall out.

Yeah, that's all. Hell, I feel like I'm going to fall out of Phens MSM with a 4 point sinched down on me. It's just a weird feeling riding in an open car like that, that's all I meant. I'm not bashing on you guys or anything. Jus tasking if you've ever felt like you were going to fall out.

Oh, but I don't do roller coasters either, that probably explains everything.

And you live in America!!!???

How could you live near America's Roller-Coast and not like Rollercoasters!? LOL

 

[ucMP3]

I love roller coasters & basically anything moving fast... The more loops and turns, the better. Been that way since the first time I rode a real coaster when I was 7 & went to Kings Island when we moved to Cincinnati.

 

[frenchy chan]

I HATE rollercoasters

 

[Lewis7789]

^^^ Yeah, I usually just kick it with the ladies when the other guys are on the roller coasters. Haha

I like going fast, but only when I'm in control (aka driving) or when I'm with someone who I really trust driving (aka Marlon). (wrc)

 

[squirrelmincer]

He has to work

Ya I wish I could make it up. But it was either this weekend off or Oct. 2nd and 3rd to run with the Porsche Club at Mid Ohio..... Just trying to squeeze out all the track time possible before winter. Levi, or anyone, if you have any questions give me a call. I'll share all that I know. 614.357.7896

You really took a risk riding with me, then!

 

[rally2003]

Just put my newly painted RacingHarts on. They look sweet. Now I just have to paint the center caps. Just bought a new laptop too. Man today is a great day. A good old ZJ would finish the day off great.

You mean BJ?

You guys ever come upon some pics on FB or whatever of that girl from HS that you used to have a huge crush on/talk to/have a decent shot with? But now she has a family with some guy that she's meet since you used to talk to her, and you're like "dang it, that could be me!" and you wish you had been like "man, f college, I'm doin my own thing," and just run off with her?

I hope I'm not alone here, but damn, that's me right now...

 

[THE Phen]

There were a lot of girls that I was interested in when I went to school with them. Since graduating, I never talked to them. Found on facebook, friended, and now laugh to myself because none of them ever did anything with their lives.


But yeah, there were two of them that I thought the same thing, but never really had a legit shot with them. That's common for me tho.

 

[PrinceValorum]

I was a freshman and she was a junior, and it was one of the few times I'd talked to a girl that I was really interested in. She was everything that I wasn't, but kind of darkly wanted to be. I guess I never really had a shot with her, but we talked for a looong time, hung out after school, it was one of the best times of my life. I would have traded most of my major organs to be with her.

Other than bring two new lives to this earth, I don't think she's really done much since then. But I'd still trade something big to be with her. It seems like she's happy, and I think that's what ultimately matters most in life, not necessarily what others judge to be "success."

 

[THE Phen]

I agree with you there. I question some peoples happiness at times...

Even when you find the person your going to spend the rest of your life with you still have those thoughts. At least I do but thats the same for alot of things in life like my job and what not. I know most all of those "what ifs " worked out for the best, the others who knows. All you can do is look forward b/c you never know how much time you will have here.

 

[THE Phen]

Absolutely. I used to hang onto should haves and stuff, but since then, I've pretty much said screw it. What happens happens. Bring on whatever's next.

 

[PrinceValorum]

Until more recently, I lived my life in the past, relishing the good memories as I bumbled through messing up everything in the present. That's good advice though. I doubt I've got too much longer left, considering my love of adrenaline..

 

[THE Phen]

I mean... I had some good memories in the past. And being on a long dry spell doesn't help me thinking about some of those memories. However, I've had more fun in the last couple years than I had in most of my life, and things continue to get better for me because I take whatever comes my way and make it Phen's b****. LOL.

I wouldn't be in China now if I continued living in the past.
