I need a 12 step program to reprogram me so I can actually be an adult again.

I said on another thread that I can't drive our 6MT because I am going to get in trouble with it. Well I think it goes beyond that. When I am in that car I start doing stupid things. I was thinking tonight that I should be on the coupe forum or on that forum with "celica boy".

Does anyone else experience this throw back to being a stupid teenager when they get in their car? Yeh, it's fun but I am a little scared I may actually race one of these little **** ants in these ricers that keep looking at me like it's a waste for a woman to be driving that car. Guess those effects last a little while after I'm out of the car.

 

hehehe, I'm only 25, and can't resist driving it hard sometimes!

 

I have driven some serious street rods before, and even owned and built my own. I’ve used manual mode on my automatics before manual mode was invented. To me this car is the perfect blend of mussel and sophistication. I don't beat the crap out the car, as I've seen what happens when you do, I do however love the short shift throws, and the firmness of the clutch, which reminds me of driving that old modified Nova I had. And of course I still get that stupid grin on my face when I "get on it", after all that's why I bought this car and not some stupid Toyota.

 

That can be good or bad for Trey I'm thinking, depending on the circumstances. LOL..

 

Yes we do experience the "throw back". We bought our G in Feb and my wife got her first warning ticket in several years. SHE was the one that wanted the stick! I said "sure!". I also seem to be like a 17 yr old behind the wheel. We should know better, she's 51 and I am 50...

 

The second I get in my car I start to pop and lock to an Afrika Bambaataa song.

 

Gee, I am "spirited" enough without the after effects . He just stays away from me when I get as wound up as I was when I posted. LOL

My new favorite quote: You say I'm a b1tch like it's a bad thing. Of course I'm not sure that's what you meant

 

Hehehe - I do that too
