When you are paranoid about whether cops can see any sparks as the lip of your rim hits your fenders constantly on the freeway....

lol i know exactly what you're talking about. took 5 months to find a new place because so many damn apartments and developments have damn speed bumps. i live in a suburban housing area now and there is only one route to my house that doesn't have speed bumps haha good enough!

It didn't take me that long. The one we liked the most actually doesn't have any at all. It was literally like a dream come true. Speaking of this I just got an email about 30 minutes ago saying I got approved. Fuck yeah!
Hang Em Low

When someone records a video of you at the track and you can hear your car scraping/rubbing, and you can hear people talking about it in the video LOL

Road reflectors become your new speedbumps - or landmines when you don't see `em.
AngelsAndBombs
When you feel like throwing up while driving after a long night of getting hammered because the freeway is so damn bouncy.

When your butt hole automatically clenches every time you change lanes.
Michael
when you are driving on the freeway and someone asks you why your tires are "like that" LOLOL
hellaunflush
when the tech inspectors at SCCA events ask you to raise your car or not bring it back because of constant tire rub/smoke
David48
When you get stuck somewhere and a hick gets eye level with your fitment and asks how fucked your suspension is, assuming your springs just imploded
zephyr
when your scared shitless of driving around because everyone else around you is driving a 3/4 ton pickup and at any moment could drive right the fudge over your low ass. and most farmers are drunken bafoons that drink alllllllllllllllll stink'n day. (not all but most)
Michael
When you dread going to school because of "The gauntlet" A harrowing series of 3 large protrusions of concrete in the middle of the roadway. Also known as speedbumps. Why they are there is beyond my comprehension, but all I know is that a lot of morning commuters are really really mad at me everyday. LOL
kfed
^You actually sound human, interesting
PotatoSparkles
^You are such a dick, lol

to add:

when you stall your car in front of your friends trying to get out of the side of your driveway you don't normally go out of and you're at a really weird angle and everything binds up and the car won't move :|
AngelsAndBombs
You just suck at driving. Go drink half a smirnoff.
stan

When you're picking a girl up for a first date and make this face sad.gif when you recognize her neighborhood as the shortcut you never took to work because of the road conditions..
AngelsAndBombs
No joke, about a year ago I went on a date with this chick and went over a speed bump. I guess I pulled my rear bumper off and didn't realize it until the freeway. Pulled over, zip tied it and told her everything was going to be ok.

First and last date with her.
joshg51
She wasn't about that life, I dont think many women are like that though. It's an acquired taste, like honey mustard.
jay_yaj
went to a girls neighborhood filled with speed bumps . as i started going over one she asks if she needs to get out

When you have to pull out all your airbags to avoid them from exploding from too much frame banging.

I don't wanna get Fabel'd and this is actually a fear of mine... Should I ditch my airbags? I'm paranoid and it will help me sleep at night even if there's no chance of them blowing at my height... I've been meaning to ask this though... I figure "better safe than sorry" or "better off being mangled in a gnarly wreck than risking blowing your airbags" haha

I'm sure everyone knows who Fabel (the miata) is, but here's a pic anyway...
harry
you don't need to remove the actual air-bag. You should be able to pull a fuse or even disconnect one of the harness connections.
This will "throw a code" for the air-bag system (air-bag light should come on) and the air-bags won't go off.

someone correct me if i'm wrong

edit: whether you ought to disable your air-bag system or not is a question for you to answer.
bobbawon
I definitely want to. I was just curious if I was being reasonable and also seeing what others were doing. If I did do it, I'd pick up some air bag defeats from Ken so the light doesn't show and I'd remove the bag from the pass dash and I plan on getting a new wheel anyway.

edit: I've been planning on doing it regardless. Just wanted some input before I did. I get anxious over these things and would rather not have to worry about the bombs in my dashboard going off while I'm cruising.

edit 2: I just really hate my dash being lit up. Well, I hate all interior lighting, including radios haha.
joshg51
Just get a new steering and a fuse. Also I like dash lighting, especially Audi interiors because their all red

hahaha pretty sure you aren't low enough to have that fear
bobbawon
I know haha. But I still have a fear of it. I was trying to make it apparent that it was somewhat of an irrational fear, but I still want to disable them. I don't know. I'm weird and I can trip over little things like this.

Fabel went pretty far before the bags blew too. So it's not something that just happens I'm sure. I would just feel more comfortable without them.
Louis
When I had my nardi I wired in a resistor in the air bag circuit and that kept the light off. I think its was 3 or 5 ohm. Its on CR somewhere.....
Domosacco
When you get stuck at the only exit for the parking garage and Formula Drift just let out so everyone is trying to leave. Including the angry soccer mom.
