FEMALE racers are so weird....reminds me of a story about a race I had on Rt
17 in NY down near Liberty.

Oh well I was in a Buick Park Ave. and the Chick was in Probe(slow one).

Well since this is non-glx content I will stop but the girl was hot as hell.

First RACE in a year. Wow how can you go that long...better question...how
come no one has tempted you before?
