Recreation I know you ****ers aren't posting.

Man, that sucks to hear man. I'd be right ticked as well, if they just did it via text message. Mad enough to march up their faces and ask why, honestly.

Taxes for driving through London, though I don't know if you'll be driving, always scare me when I hear about the congestion charge. Yikes!

 

Hahaha, very true. I got most of my sense of London taxes through Top Gear. But, that's a motoring program, and I love cars...so I couldn't imagine myself not driving through London and having to pay 35 pounds everyday to drive through it.

Are you going to try and stay in construction?

 

Or 60mph EXITING an off-ramp on the freeway at 5-6k RPM, with a banked turn with a perfect heel-toe downshift right before the the corner into third gear into 7.5k RPM or so. Those are ALWAYS fun.

High-revving engine FTMFW!

I drove my friend's S2000 this past weekend. I really want to see about getting one now, and trade my Civic in. It's just too fun to have a car like that with the top down, have a nice sunny day, and being in California and 9000rpm to keep you smiling like an idiot.

In any case, about congestion charges. The mayor of LA and the governator is actually thinking of proposing that a few of the more inundated freeways (605, 10, 101, some parts of the 210) near LA will have their carpool lanes changed to toll roads. Idiots. Why hurt people in carpool lanes, when they're already ridesharing? Why not try and target the SINGLE driver? This is quite close to London's own congestion...where you pay to sit in traffic jams. $75 of your own money, in order to take 2 hours to get across London. At least we've not yet sunk that low.

I also made moderator in 8thcivic.com, my Civic site. Responsibilities FTL. =P

 

I've tapped 98mph before, but I was just following flow of traffic and didn't realize I reached that speed. However, cops will pull you over anyway. I'd rather cruise at 80, no one gets caught doing that. I'm often at 75, considering gas prices.

I will probably still mod there, even if I get an S2000. Great bunch of guys there.

 

Perhaps we shouldn't be talking about reckless driving here?

This being said, this is what awaits me just outside my neighborhood:

Canyon Run Heaven!

Well, actually, I'm really at the 39HWY, found on the far left. But, still, that road is there for the taking! Of course, it's also hounded by cops.

North Carolina has Deals Gap AKA "The Dragon":

East Coasters (all the way from the NE and as far as Florida) on the Civic board do a yearly meet there. I'm jealous.

 

Man, I wish I lived that close to the PCH. That in itself is a different type of drive...but gorgeous nonetheless. I will drive that if I do end up getting my S2000. LOL. Top down and just straight up until Santa Barbara.
