Default My First Own getaway video, and i´m just 16 years old...

Well...cars for me is the most important thing...i think that i am one of the few that make part of the fanatic cars group....i guess to say fanatic is few..but, let´s start with the important thing

Last year, precisely in August 03...i was on ICQ, talking to my friends..and i decidec to ride...
.i´m from Brazil....and i always stay here talking until midnight or more...

My parents always go to sleep early, i think 11:00 pm... and i stay here until 02:30 am or more...

Last year, almost every day i gone for a drive on the streets of São paulo, my city, here in Brazil... These "cruising fast drives" were ALWAYS with my parents sleeping, because if they catch me going out...well, i´ll be dead...

Then, in August 03 i gone for a very very fast ride, and i took my camera too, to record every thing...that was nice...every thing was perfect...
That time was just the eighth of all times that i gone out at midnight for a ride... It´s very hard, i have to open the doors with total silence, like James Bond... In the afternoon is most easy...

Then i put the camera onboard, in the head-seat of the passenger seat...well, was complicated, but i get
Then i started the engine, like Indianapolis 500 starting hehe =P
"Gentleman, Start your Engines!!"

well, i gone out for a ride..a fast ride...

here in São paulo, there are good streets to run, with good asphalt, but there some a litle bad, then i had to take care with speed and handling...
the car was a Chevrolet Corsa 1.0...yeah, i know that is a shit, but, i guess that nobody did what i did, and nobody will do what i did, with the same car....The car is slow at acceleration, and not so good at corners..well, it´s a front wheel drive car!

But who knows how to drive, drive in any car...
Then i was driving through the avenues very fast, there were fewww cars on the streets, and i was driving always up to 140 kph( for a 1.0 car, it´s too fast!)

I tried to make all corners with full gas, wheel spin at all time, very funny noise...the car understeer at all time, because i took the corners at the limit of the few handling of my corsa...so, even on a slow car, it was very adrenaline rush!

The overall braking of it is few too, so, even he doesn´t runing quickly, i have to brake not inside the turn, but a lithe before, because it´s a front wheel drive car, and, if u tap the brakes into the corner, the front of the car slide down through the corner very hard, and u lose control, and crash!...so, i had to make a shift-lock every time the corner was arriving and i was at highspeed, to brake and down the gears..one by one, like in a real race hehe =P

There´s an avenue here, near my house, very long straight, i calculate about 2.4 KM, but with many many junctions..it´s VERY VERY dangerous to pass there at highspeeds, about 160, 170 km/h...but i passed, lucky!
So this avenue starts on a litle descent, and then continues on a very long plane straight...to run there with full gas, it´s like to ride on a roller coaster hehe...very exciting... i traped almost the top speed of my corsa(really, it´s my mama´s corsa hehe)...the top speed is 185 km/h or almost 115 mph...i traped there on the straight 170 km/h... if u think that
it´s not too fast, then try to go this fast on this car on a street avenue...just full gas at all time!!
The avenue has about 2.4 km of extension, i ran it in exactly 60 seconds...

Well, i can´t tell everything because the ride was to cool...
If u want to see the movie, i leave it sharing on the Kazaa every day, and on Emule too..the name there, both kazaa and emule is
