Wow, Harry, you had a crazy fast experience with your Buick. I think all boys are pretty much that way, and I'm sure my boys were, too. I just never found out about it.
Thanks for sharing your misadventures with your ultra fast toy.
Take care,
Rhonda

Comment from jacquelyn popp
This story is a thrilling and nostalgic ride, offering ban excellent glimpse into the reckless spirit of youth. The writer's vivid descriptions immediately draw you into the action. The adrenaline fueled chase scenes are written with such energy and excitement that you can hear the roar of the engine and feel the rush of the wind.
What makes this story even more exceptional is this reflection that follows. While the wild, high speed moments are gripping, this story takes a meaningful turn as the writer looks back with a mix of regret and fondness. Great and enjoyable story.

Hi Harry!
One thing is sure, you loved that car! The passage where you describe the car has more passion than when you describe the teenage girls. So many details. It reminded me of stories my Dad used to tell. Nice work!!

Comment from Lana Marie
Oh my goodness you got my adrenaline up a couple different times during this racey story. I know it's not a word. I don't think I've ever been in a car that went that fast. I mean the cars had the potential to go that fast but I would be too scared especially as a passenger. My dad used to call me a "race car driver" Because when I was young and dumb, I would ride the tale of a semi because I heard once that you get good gas mileage that way. I'm glad to have met you on here and you lived to tell about all your stories.

Lol! Yes, I was very lucky when I was young. Thanks so much again, for the great review! I truly appreciate you!

You're welcome, I didn't realize that the reviews were yours back to back to back lol and when I saw your name for the third time, I figured what the heck I'll read it. I'm not stalking you. These just came up in the order of the reviews. I've been falling behind on writing and reviewing so I figured I'd try to catch up a little bit. Keep up the great work thanks for appreciating me.

Oh no worries! Thanks!
Comment from bob cullen
Are you, my brother. You have described my twin brother to perfection. John knew only one speed in Dad's car, flat chat. He was skilled, but rather mad behind the wheel. You really described him perfectly in your final sentence. He too was young, dumb and liked to drive fast.

Comment from giraffmang
Hi Harry,
Yes, the folloy of youth I think most of us young males have been there at one time or another! Lol
I had an old beat up car which my Dad had changed the engine on to something really fast. You wouldn't have looked twice at it but it was a beast under the bonnet!
Another enjoyable piece.
Good stuff

Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
I was a girl who didn't like shopping, but I loved to go fast. One night I got into a drag race with my big yellow boat that had a golden eagle engine. I beat the other guy and kept on going. In the first curve after the race I discovered my engine died at a 100 miles an hour. Managed to keep her on the road and gave up racing. I forgot to tell you what a great story this is. It sure reminded me of younger days and wishing I had a car like yours, even if my old boat was a race winner.

Comment from Kirsten Shonle
Wow. I have never driven that fast before. 100mph was the max I've gone but I am a speeder often going 85 in a 65 mph zone. But that was when I was younger. We do crazy things in high school. I liked the part about avoiding the sheriff. That was funny. I guess that is why there are rules now that teenagers can't drive with their friends in the car. I enjoyed this read.

You were lucky for sure. Most kids do crazy things in HS; I wasn't allowed out of the house. lol
This is very thought provoking with good flowing imagery descriptions.

Lol! Well, thank you so much Alex for the great review. Yes, I was lucky when I was young. I tried to always keep my angels happy!

You're welcome!

I know right?

To me, because I never went out. ;) I liked to hear what my friends did.
-
That is a shame you could not go out!

My dad was much older, from Greece, and a merchant Marine. He kept the girls safe but my brothers went out. They were like 2nd dads too. It's a Greek thing. My brother who was a marine went to my bustop to tell boys not to ask me out. Well he just asked who the hell was asking his sister out and he scared them, for my dad, he was up visiting on time off. Yesh. I was married on my 21st birthday so it wasn't the best plan, divorced at 25. It's been a long road but I'm finally settled. My dad meant well though lol. It's a Greek thing but some girls ignore it. I didn't. I just respected my older dad.
-
Lol! Well Alex, at least you had a Marine to look after you lol...

You are right, most boys are speed addicted, I on the other side don't drive so I am scared of speed or any race noises:) Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.
