[@13_13k]

Bro, I see that some of those clips you are driving on Pershing Drive between El Segundo and Westchester at the end of LAX runways and the sand dunes of Playa Del Rey. I grew up and lived in Westchester and Playa Del Rey til I was 30 yrs old. Pershing Drive used to be one of our street racing streets back in the late 1970s and '80s, as well as Jefferson Blvd. Where Home Depot is where Playa Vista (Silicon Beach) sits on what used to be Howard Hughes Helicopters plant. I have a great story about driving 140 MPH down Pershing Drive with the cops behind me trying to catch me. I'd love to tell that story because it is absolutely hilarious how I got a ticket and mandatory traffic court appearance and only got fined $20 and $40 for 8 hour traffic school for doing 140 MPH on a street that has a 45 MPH speed limit. Those were fun days. The whole story is a crack up.
