Dood, like the other day, there was this old woman crossing the parking lot at the grocery store. So I like totally floored it and ran right into her cart and freaked the crap out of her. Then I turned around and did burnouts in the parking lot. People all over were staring at me. Man they thought I was so cool.

I wish the guy would have cracked his bumper going thru the water tho....no MAJOR damage (engine, suspension...etc.) But enough to serve as a reminder.

One time at band camp I drove my AWD Subaru suspension'd tC out of an F16, did a triple backflip and stuck the landing right into a parking spot at school. >.> <.<

I did this with a humvee and set a sheet of mud water up about 10 feet into the air. It was a canvas top though, not a hard top... and it was torn. My ACUs (and my tc's) were soaked and brown.
