Hey, don't forget, I ran 55.xxx times in 2, count them, 2 different cars!

(Big bragging rights!<G>)

I told you it was a scary fast car! Just be glad my car was running on 3
cylinders because if you would have gotten back into my car, you would
have been bored by comparison! :) 
You did really good! You were only a full second slower than my best time
of 71.1 which considering your total unfamiliarity of Mikes car, was
really good! I think you would be really fast with a little more seat
time.

No you did not! You burnt rubber all the way to the first turn!  :)

Oh yeah, that was funny. We got into a little speed competition with a
2door A2 Jetta on the way to the race. I had a full load of race tires,
tools, jack, cooler and other related stuff and that Jetta really wanted
to play, so... we did. Once I hit about the 130 mark and pulled away from
the Jetta(120 mph spedo with the needle pegged is about where 130 should
be) Paul looks over and says, "Holy shit, (its Jesus!) your doing 130!
OK, you can slow down now!" Heh, what Fun!
He wouldn't let me show him deadman's hill and 150+.... 
I think he doesn't trust me or something.... :)

Hmm, I always thought it was from them rubbing my head with their inner
thighs?? We wont get into it now I think..... :)
