Those of you "racing" in the streets are the ones making people think the tC is a car for little ****** and that all of the tC drivers are _______ little kids.

Keep it on the track or don't do it at all. If you're that interested in driving fast (nothing wrong with that) look into your local SCCA region for some autox events. It's a lot safer and a lot more fun.

Or like someone else said... just crash your ____ now and move along.

Well it may not be the "general public" that thinks that... but go look around some other car forums and see what they think of tC drivers... I know a lot of people that love the car but seem to always run into some kid in a tC that wants to roll up on them and race.

And I don't know about the new beetle. I think it's far from that. It might be a regional thing for your area - I see more guys in them around here than girls. Then again, I'm lucky if I see 3 other tCs in a week around here.

OK dad, you've convinced me... I'll never drive fast again on public roads, i promise

And no i'm not one of those "a$shole kids" doing 100 mph through rush hour traffic. A lot more fun at the track though???.. thats an opinion

Ya, because I'm saying no one should or does drive fast on public roads. Right.

Just too many people thinking they're badasses as soon as the light turns red and there's someone next to you. And no it's not just tC drivers, by any means...

Same thing... It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or by a mile... winning is winning But seriously, there is some truth to that. whether it be the car or the driver, winning is winning
