Wife/girlfriend get queesy/sick during aggressive driving?
Mine gets motion sickness... What I've found on curvey roads, it's best to set the cruise control ar about 50-55mph and just drive as smoothly as possible without jerking the car around. When I do that, My wife is fine... If I get on the gas and brake a lot and late apex/throw the car into corners, I'm in deep ****...

My girlfriend actually got real used to my 911 Turbo... she just doesn't like it when I race on the freeway and whoop on AMGs and M5s. A bit frightening for her at those high speeds... but what to do when the other guy decides he wants a shot at the title... So we agreed, for safety reasons, no more racing unless a Ferrari, Lambo, or GTR decides to roll up. But in all honesty, I don't do it anymore when she's in the car she's much too important.

Mine definately does. I got her an M3 so that she could start driving more agressive on her own and get more used to it (it was also a great excuse for a weekend warrior track car). hopefully it works.
On one of our first dates we where driving down the road and I was in 1st, told her to hold on, she didn't listen and as I hit 2nd gear she flew forward sending her glasses into the windshield, needless to say she knew what she was in for then.

I always considered removing one's wife from the car as the first mod to make for the Official Turbo Weight Loss thread.
It removes weight and the annoying noise coming from the right side of the vehicle when at WOT.

Thank god I'm not married-
Mine won't get in the Pcar unless she's driving...
Tahoe or Colorado mountain roads she loves it if she's driving...
I think it's time for a newer younger girlfriend because it was differnt about 5 years ago!

AGREED with that. I am 42, GF is 31 and she would be even happier is she could co-pilot everyday. The first-grade-teacher-psycho is almost a bigger speed freak that I am. Her saying...get em baby!
