White-knuckle ride...
I took my sister out to a place I'm thinking of moving to. Two-lane hiway with passing lanes, which most people consider the place to see how fast they can go before resuming their 50-mph crawl.
I never once did anything I would consider crazy or dangerous. I took turns at the posted limit (or maybe faster, probably) and never once approached the limits of a stock FR-S. My sister left her finger prints in the passenger door handle, and her husband drives like a madman. Heh. How odd to think that the vast majority of car owners never have fun. The FR-S is a sweet little car we are lucky to have. Sucks to be you if you don't know that. |

I like the ones with 45mph corners and uneven pavement. Even in that scenario the car exudes confidence.

Eh, most people would say this car rides like shit which amplified what you were doing, if you did the same thing in a modern Camry she wouldn't even bat an eye.

Your sister sounds a bit like mrs humfrz, and I quote her, "I just know I'm going to die in this car" ....
![]() So, I give her a security cushion to hold onto and she just shuts her eyes .... ![]() humfrz Last edited by humfrz; 03-09-2015 at 07:52 PM. |

Damn, I guess I got it good. My gf loves driving with me in my car.
Mother on the other hand ... "OH MY GOD THIS IS SO LOW, SLOW DOWN, YOU DRIVE CRAZY, I HATE DRIVING WITH YOU, THIS CAR IS SO LOUD, TURN AROUND I WANT TO GO BACK HOME AND TAKE MY CAR!" ![]() Bone stock .. my bmw was on coils, had poly bushings, hard rubber, loud, and much faster and she thought that was more comfortable. Women .. go figure. |

If someone can scare my missus in their car then id give you a high five...
She is alot braver than most... been around track with professional drivers, didnt even bat an eyelid... been with drifters around a course... they came to a stop and then took off again, i was confused and asked why he did that, she said when they finished the run, she asked him " was that it lol.
