I didn't take any offence at all and don't understand why you think I did.

Sory then, sometimes it's hard (for me) to understand someone online since I rely so heavely on tone and body language.

I used to do that, back in middle school. Do you live in a big city?

On the edge of a city and by the sea. Farmland around as well. (Strawberries)

I wouldn't give up my licence for anything..

Taxi are just too damned expensive for me to use

A good driver makes good driving decissions. And speeding is not a good driving decission.

The other truth is that the time difference between driving the speed limit and speeding 10 - 20 km over the speed limit does not really change the overall driving time unless you are driving for 5 hours without stopping.

As for Road Rage - I get out of the way of a bad driver. I would rather have them infornt of me where I can act defencivly to what they are doing, then have them behind me. I refuse to let those people infringe on my enjoyment of driving.

That is a BEAST of an engine!! With that kind of throbbing meat under your feet, the road would be yours and FUCK the competition. Geez, what I'd give for that kind of kinetic energy at my command.

I haven't been tailgated since forever, and only once or maybe twice been bested in a straight fight at the lights, and then only because my own lane was blocked off.

For the moment, I've traded some brute force for luxury with my Saab 2.3i SE convertible, but it still gets me ahead of the pack on kick-down. Not a great deal you can do in town traffic with a 5.3 anyway, sadly, but you must spend your weekends either screwing or driving!

I'll trade up sometime in the next 18 months, but as a convertible fan, I'm not sure what'll have a 3.0+ engine AND not cost the earth, either.

See you...in my rear view mirror!!
