One thing that Bobby Nitro has noticed when leaving awesome petrolkop events of most kinds, is that people tend to get into their cars full of the spirit of the show and somehow believing that they need to imitate the performance of highly trained professionals on our public roads.
So, you’ll get the guys who floor it when leaving Killarney, or come roaring into the drags. Now Bobby gets it, there is a certain amount of show involved here, after all you don’t roll on a V8 without wanting to let mense know just how it sounds.
Thing is, that stuff really needs to remain on the track. Letting just a little of the petrolkop enthusiasm for speed onto the public roads is already too much. If I speed, it gives the next guy permission to do so, and so on. If we are to make our roads safer, then we need to adopt an attitude of no compromise. There is never a good time to drive irresponsibly on a public road, not even for 100m.
Come Saturday night, there will be thousands of revved up mense climbing into cars after the Monster Jam® . Wouldn’t it be totally ridiculous if those drivers decided to imitate the driving they witnessed inside the stadium?
