Coupe in So Cal

[xlr8or]

Anytime.


PS.... The fastest we went around a corner was 35.

YOU went for a "RIDE" with Scott? How'd the HANES hold up? I've heard of some "rides" that a fellow enthusiast went on..........

It felt like 90 and now Mike and Alyssa are making fun of me. It was way faster than I've ever taken a turn, so there!

[xlr8or]

Ok so that one turn onto the ramp may have been a little faster.. Say 45 and in Julie's defense it was a 90 degree turn and I was passing another car going through it.

[QSL]

LOL. Julie is a granny driver. I dont even know how you got away without her slapping you for going too fast through corners. When i cross the challenger up, i get a beating and a half hour lecture.

[MRSQSL]

A beating? I weigh 110 lbs and I have the arm strength of a small infant.

Thanks for upping the speed and throwing in the 90 degree while passing thing. Damn, there's that smile again!

[QSL]

my thumb still hurts...

[MRSQSL]

I have no idea why your thumb hurts. Has nothing to do with me. I'm sorry you are suffering though. Put some ice on it and maybe have someone at work kiss it for you.

There is the problem.... I didn't cross it up. The car just stuck to the ground and went around the corner.

She spent most of the time either commenting on it not being as loud as she expected or just giggling.

Is she usually like this:

[QSL]

NO, that lady is much calmer.

[MRSQSL]

Scott is right. He DIDN'T cross it up. I hate that feeling of sliding. I want the car to stick to the ground, not whip around all crazy like. How many times have I told you I don't care if you go fast in a straight line?

Now I'm offended. I look NOTHING like that wife. In fact, I thought that looked like a blast. I'm surprised her husband didn't pull over and throw her out with all that squealing and hand flailing. I can understand her initial reaction, but clearly he's driven on a track before and knows what he's doing. Once she got used to the g forces, you'd think she'd have calmed down. Women!

[xlr8or]

But she was in a full on Daytona Prototype with 800+ HP and he' a pro driver.
Imagine someone taking you for a ride in a Formula1 car.

[MRSQSL]

Sitting at my desk with a chair that goes no more than 3 mph at any given moment, I'd have to say that riding in a formula 1 with a professional driver on a track in full safety gear sounds like FUN!!!!!! Ask me again when I'm all suited up and about to be strapped in. I might be seen flailing my arms and screaming for help too. Doubt it though. I could see the screaming, but I'd be too busy gripping on for dear life for arm flapping. PLUS, that was HER HUSBAND! I trust mine completely and have to say he is an excellent driver. A stranger may find me annoying and have no issue killing me, but Mike promised to love me and I'm holding him to that.
