Funny story:

My girfriend has my car today. So she is cruising down Hwy 27 and a red S2000, dropped, big fart can on the back, WV plates pulls up behind her and they start accelerating down 27. She gets caught behind a cement truck, the red one keeps going, and by the time she gets out from behind the truck, she sees FHP pulling a u-ey to pull over the red S2000.

She calls me to tell me how much the car pulls once you pass 6000 rpm.
DUH!!!

I can hear the smile on her face.

meanwhile, I'm cruising down Hwy27 in her Expedition....whatever.
I ought to call her and tell her how much her truck pulls once it passes 6000 rpm.

 

BOOM!!! gos Expedition nice

 

Hope she knows it doesn't pull much past 9000!!

Sometimes, you gotta luv cement trucks!

 

Yeah, she asked me one day what happens if it revs too high.
I said, oh nothing to worry about the car has a rev limiter, and I went into somewhat detail on how it works. After about a 5 minute explanation, she fessed up and told me she was busy watching the road and hit the rev limiter in 2nd gear. I said "it scared the sh!t out of you, didn't it?". She said "OH YEAH!!"

 

You must love her very much to let her redline your car!!!!

 

My wife shifts at 2500 no mater what. I was embarassed to see her "out accelerated" by a school bus as I was following her to work one morning. Oh well less wear and tear than if both of us loved to drive fast.

BTW...as I stated in another thread....Red is always the one to be pulled over.

 

ABSOLUTELY!!

I always tell her to DRIVE the car. Don't pussy foot around with it. It's meant to be driven!!
...that's why it's got 105,000 miles on it.
