Another one bites the dust
The other day I was headed back to Chi from Indiana on US 30 when I pulled behind an all blacked out 2005 Infiniti g35. My girl and I thought the car looked cool, but then the unexpected happened....he started revving his engine hard and pulled off . I'm thinking "okaaay....?" I tell my girl this guy must want to race and at first she says that not everyone that does that wants to race against you (yeah right). So as we are still goin west on US 30 this guy is now weaving thru traffic and really revving and staying close by. I am seeing this as an outright challenge being that by now he has pulled off several times in heavy traffic and knowin my girl is in the car (sorry, but I can't refuse a guy that believes he will embarass me wit my girl in the car in a "lesser" ride .
We pull to the stop light left turn lane about 2-3 mi before 394 and shoot the shit. He revs repeatedly and I ask him "what you got?" He says he is stock and I tell him I only got a lid then I rev on him and my girl says "smoke him!" The light goes green and I hit 70 mph quick -like outta the turn leaving him and traffic behind.....far behind, so I am thinking "did he turn off...he backed off...he got scared....this is over already....what!?" Hell No!! As I was slowing down nearing the 394 expressway we see this guy barreling down the rear view mirror thru the on ramp. My girl says "don't let him catch up" and I say "nah...he evidently came THIS far for a challenge, so I will give it to him!" So it was me, my girl, my son and 4 suitcases vs him and his guy on open str8. We look at each other and he gasses first and gets like a 1/4 car at best and my girl says "get em" and I mashed it, pulled him and buried him by 2-3 car lengths before he let off. He then turned off the expressway and that was that....properly handled and disposed.

Yes...but make no mistake I am not an idiot. I would not do something that would endanger my kid. Traffic was not close at all and I was not willing to peel rubber on the expressway, which could cause probs, for a win. Again...not near traffic...warm sunny weather...also trained in pursuit driving. Yeah I know...to each their own, but I really didn't see a risk.

You raced with your kid in the car. I'm sorry, but that's my definition of an idiot supreme (actually, I lied....I'm not sorry).
Few kids (even kids that have kids of their own) "see risk" (or in this case, extra risk, as driving is already inherently risky) until something bad happens.
Not that it makes it any less stupid, but what kind of training in "pursuit driving" have you had? How does that make it less stupid?
Stupid. Its stupid to even admit it - let alone do it.
