Not sure you'll have a lot of luck finding someone to publicly admit in writing to drag racing up to 160 mph on public roads, but maybe.

At what speed will her naglimiter kick in? Sounds like her naglimiter is set way to low.

I had never really thought about it, but after 12 years of marriage, my wife has riden in my Porsches less than a dozen times. If we go anywhere with the kids we take the kidmobile (Benz) or if it's the two of us, then I take the VW. She never questions my "investing" in the cars - she could care less. Anyone else have a wife/girlfriend/boyfriend/husband/significant other like that?

My wife loves to ride with me in the Turbo, and she loves to drive it too.

Yup...Ignorance is bliss ...except for the hobbies the gf's into as well

And on long trips she falls asleep instantly so that 3hr drive is over in 1.5 with my foot buried if the traffic is light haha
