i enjoy washing my car every week to see it shine at its best. i love to take it out and drive it fast on the highway when its all empty late at night. and everyday, i love blasting my music with my windows down and just chillin down the road while everyone looks at me with envy..

I put the top down and go race around the rocky mountain passes. There is a pass I drive on my way to the lake house just about every weekend in the summer. Speed. Turns. The mountains have it all.

OP how old are you? you sound like your in high school. The way your talking on this thread gives younger drivers a bad rep. if you want to get your car up to 155 do it on a closed course.

Meh there are stretches of flat open highway where the speed limit is 75 but 155 is just fine. On a clear sunny day where you can see for miles, little to no traffic, its just fine IMO.

I'm on your side here. While I don't think I'd go up to 155, I've down 100-130 on some long open stretches of road. I'd never, NEVER, do these kinds of speeds with a passenger or when there is any notable amount of traffic... give me a quarter mile or so of open road all to my self though...

yeah true, and i admit did it once. the thing that irritates me is this OP sounds like he does a bunch of unsafe driving. on the highway there are times you can safely get over 100, but that doesnt mean you should get on the highway whenever you just want to enjoy your car and use it as a race track.

Unsafe driving ftl. Had a friend that almost lost his life in a speeding accident. (He was doing about 110 when someone changed lanes and clipped him. He spun out smashed into the freeway median -- Remarkably he didn't roll though, that's probably what saved him)

Do you drift?

Are you in it for the speed and see how fast you can go on the highway?

Or do you like to take it to the backroads and play in the corners?
where in dallas do you live?

Turning her on in the morning and hearing the VQ hum.

Going to a big parking lot with a couple of round abouts and practicing my drift techniques. Yes tires are expensive but so is my car payment. Luckily I have a friend who works for a whole sale distributor I get my tires from.

Letting loose on the streets is stupid IMO
