She looks a little nervous in the second picture. Now you need to teach her to take it past 2K RPM and get it near redline

She does look good in the car

Good for you Jimmy, but you now that there is no such thing now as just that once, trust me i know, she kind of looks like she's white knuckling the steering wheel... but Mike's right know you have to get her up near redline, its a thrill for her and for you to watch... really....
but the pic's are sideways, that must have been quit a ride...

Amanda has driven mine twice. However- she was not allowed to go within a mile of a curb, and I was in a seperate car behind her.
As nervous as I was- I think it was kinda hot.

Way to go Kelly.

I'll have to PM you with some tips on how to get dibs on being the driver.

Nice! I let Mary drive the S once ..... She could drive my Accord pretty good but when she got in the S she went ahead and killed it the point to where it wouldn't start and I freaked out. She was out with my buddies wife in our neighborhood who can drive a stick and has more patience than I. Mary rolled up in the front of the house looking like she was doing good so I asked her to take me for a ride and then she couldn't get it really going as soon as I got in the car, she said she was nervous, and when I finally had enough I told her to get out and get to the other side and she wouldn't get out of the car because she thought I would leave her

Needless to say she hasn't asked to drive it since and she told me on Sat that she doesn't like riding in it at all right now because the car doesn't mix well with pregnancy and it makes her feel like she has to pee the whole time. LOL
