But only play group lotteries composed of people you know very well personally.

67 Buick and 67 Olds - nice!

When I slowed down to 100, it felt like I had stoppped and you could walk alongside the car. Three decades later, I'm content to go half that speed.

Haymaker,

If I may, I'd like to help answer your question.

The Bugatti Veyron is the most awesome car in the world. It's the fastest production car ever made.

Some quick facts:

- It goes 0 to 60 mph in 2.4 seconds

- It has reached 268 mph

- To go into ludicrous speed mode (those of you familiar with the Mel Brooks movie Spaceballs will know that reference) which they call top speed mode, the driver must come to a complete stop first and then insert a second key to signal t... [ More ]

Yeah, that is EXACTLY what I was thinking!

And here, these guys were GIVEN that opportunity - and it looks like they still wanted to be seen and not anonymous (by being, say, a clown in full make-up).
