I told them I would lead the group and that if I wasn't fast enough then I would pull off and get in the back of the line. They looked at each other quizzically, obviously thinking "is this old guy crazy?". After a few awkward seconds, they agreed.

When I got to the bottom of the mountain, it was boring waiting for them. They showed up 2 minutes later with the smell of their brakes heavy in the air. That made my weekend!
Negotiating curves with even a little bit of speed is not covered in the turbo-stance and fart-can manuals. Want to make your car significantly faster for very little money? Learn how to drive it well.
