Street Racing at it's Extremes....the Amish are Doing it Right!

Hello everyone there in the cyber world,
It's been a while. New merchandise is available for my fellow C.R.A.P. members, if you don't know what that is...then you probably won't be much interested...for those of you who are interested in a tshirt update, one will be coming shortly.
To my next topic of discussion, in strange local news I have discovered you don't need an Italian Sports Car or a Chevy pick up to get a lot of horsepower in your life...you really just need the good Amish people of Ohio. Apparently...in Ashland, Ohio they don't rely on crappy Hondas with their mufflers torn off to race...they resort to cart and buggy....that's a true show of horsepower right there! A man was charged with reckless riding for apparently "drag" racing a horse and buggy on a main state route. the 2 men involved in the race were racing to their local church and as one passed the other he clipped an oncoming vehicle...don't worry though, none of the daredevils involved in this collision were injured other than the driver who only sustained a few cuts and an extreme hit on his pride. I was jolly to know he is not the first amish man to be charged with reckless driving...not because I have anything against the amish, but because I thought mostorist...namely myself, were the only ones charged for it. But, no the amish have to deal with that pesky police quota that we all have to deal with. I think we should tip our hats to them, in a world filled with cellphones, Ipads, and other communication technology, and even cars we usually don't build ourselves they still manage to have fun and enjoy life as well. And they build their own vehicles...so kudos to them. My only concern is the poor horse who has to lug these people around...guys I understand that you work hard and play even harder...and I realize that this won't make it back to the amish, but if anyone reading this knows anyone from the good ole amish country please tell them to give those horses a little break. it's not easy pulling a carriage at top speeds! Well I suppose that's all I really have to say for the night. Cheers everyone! Xx
