Default I might have created a situation for myself

I wake up this morning and after telling her I don't want the the S to be driven in the rain, what does she do, takes the S to work the 2nd day in a row.

Besides the S, we have 2 other cars to choose from, a nice Acura RL, her DD and my 2500hd Silverado, my DD.

She is a great driver and actually owned quite a few fast cars as well as street bikes in the past, but, WTF!

I call her this morning and asked her, why did you take the Honda this morning knowing it was going to rain and she says " it wasn't raining when I left." Ok, I might have a problem here. Why did I give her the 2nd set of keys, I'm scared I've created a monster.

Before we brought the S 10 days ago, she thought I was overblowing how awesome the S is and made fun of me saying how can you call that small car one of the most amazing cars you have ever driven. Well, the proof is in the pudding, lol. I think someone is hooked

Yeah, someone has become hooked on the S2000.

I have been putting off teaching my wife to drive my S2000 for about 4 years.

I think subconsciously I am afraid of this very situation, she falls in love with it and wants to drive it all the time.

Better get a data logger, something tells me she's hooked on the 9G redline.
