The Joy of...

driving my RX-8 never goes away. After picking up some CD's and DVD's at Borders today I "accidently" took the long way home. Hit the beeper a number of times while winding my way through one of my favorite twisty roads. Didn't really push it in the turns, but just made those-oh-so-satisfying "like on rails" through some esses while stiring the gearbox. When the twisty road ended I enjoyed the incredible induction sounds as I briskly accelerated to highway speed on the on-ramp. And besides the grin on my face, I drove long enough to eliminate the foam stuff on the dipstick :-)

Good on you! That's how I drive my RX8 when I get to start her up once a week.

I know exactly how you feel. I feel like that everytime I get in it.

Yeah, no matter how many times you get her going, it still makes me happy and brings a smile to my face.

Haha, you wouldn't believe I drive all the way (24km) just to get some razor blades when I could have just take a 2 minutes walk and get them. When I really feel like it, I drove for 200 km just fooling around in my neighborhood.
