drove around for a couple hours right after work today, with the t-tops off since it was 80 freaking degrees and sunny!
and got off to a great start!

seeing my camera out, this guy decided to be silly and show me 0-60, which as it turns out only takes about 150 ft, and some rear end looseness over winter-damaged side streets

at this point I was thinking, all I need now is a Lambo and I can go home happy. Little did I suspect it would be my first Aventador!!!!!!!! btw, kid in the pic was in the process of going crazy, in case you were wondering. dad had to run across the street and drag him away from the source of his hysteria.

and then I noticed the RX-7. He's an SCAA dirt racer. The 10,000 rpm tach made me even more curious, so i had to bug him again while he was working on the Audi's I5. 10k because 12k is too expensive. 230hp rotary. At this point I'm in man-love. AND two Quantum Synchros!
