Religion and Life

I am not a religious guy. Though I do pray to my Buddhas everyday and in fact several times a day. However, I do not mean religious as in praying for the good of man kind or the prosperity of my family or wat. I mean saying prayers every few minutes and so on.

But since I started driving my old car, which is in shit state, I have been very very religious...... "Holy S**t!!", "J*sus Christ", "Oh my G*d", and usually by the end of the drive....... "Our father in heaven... hallowed be thy name". (Yes my gentle reader... I used to be a Christian)

The reason for this "religiousness" is because the car is a possible death trap.... the brakes do not work properly. I always drive no more den 100km no matter wat bcoz I am not sure if they will fall apart or they will not even work.

How my sister and bro in law ever allowed the guy to "rape" the car like that I will never know. But now it is not safe to drive. And usually the driver does not get nausea when he drives, but the car is so noisy and the suspension is so wonderful that after driving for about half and hour, I will be very sick. So if you ever see me rushing up your driveway and I am looking green, please be a friend and pass me a plastic bag.

Actually I have managed to get rid of the car by buying an Evo X. As mentioned before in my previous post, there are already people who think that they will be able to match my car. But lets face it, the car comes as a super car. It does not take much to get more ponies...... Just hange the exhaust and you will have 10% power gain. That pushes the car to above 300 liao..... so do your maths lah.... don think that a donkey can become a pony and a racehorse. Bu like my previous posts.... a Cs5 can run with an Evo or Rex without feeling shame. It is a light car ad the engine can push out 250hp. This is on paper on par with a stock Evo. Even if the Evo or Rx does not push higher ponies, you can still keep up. Like a race I once had, the Rex which was doing about 350hp needed 3rd gear before he could over-take me. So use this as an advantage. Do not allow the other car to spool his turbo-charger. One his turbo is fully spooled, you will lose. But then also remember, the Cs5 is more nimble in a way. And it is also the skill of the driver lah.... I kow of a guy who drove a super car, but crashed into every other car nearby.

So as with any power, it is the ability to control it. Not the ability to have more of it.

Cheers and Peace out brothers and sistas
