That feel of constant acceleration at such speed is simply amazing.

Aaaaaah....I see the difference. U drive your car! i think I put 500 miles on mine this season

Sad, isnt it

It`s just the routine. I work from home these days so for me it is just regular routine stuff - drop off kid at in-laws, get on occasional meeting in downtown, etc. On that particular Saturday morning at 6.30am I was driving to auto-x.

It`s possible to find an excuse to drive car you like any time you want if you really want it. Today I will go to lunch with my wife, so will drive it again. Life is short, anyway...
