Don't most of us grab our crotches when we feel it's in danger?

I'm one who has to cap myself though, I love speed and general thrills that give you adrenaline dumps, including roller-coasters. If I had more time to to go to Six Flags, I probably would be satisfied more often.

You're right though, it is a lot of money. I will not do it if it will be a financial burden, I like my monetary freedom. You know, to go out and have a few ICB's with friends. It is fun flirting with people on the road. It's too bad for her though, she missed out :wink: ! They're sort of stuck-up here though, I don't put a lot of emphasis on looks, I'm just freindly and like to wave to everyone.

So many possibilities here! :twisted:
But I will refrain for the moment. I will attest to her loving the thrill of carving through a good stretch of esses, pushing the Z to its limits. Personally, I think she would look very good (read HAWT!) driving a Z4M, not that she doesn't already. :wink:
F-n-I, if you need a refresher, I will let you drive mine on the next GTG. :driving:
I will agree with previous posts, to drive one causes a person to lose sanity and end up signing on the dotted line. Had a perfectly good MINI S (modified) that I truly enjoyed, but 3 days after a test drive, I came home with the Z4M.

Cheers!

ovrkll I love you! What a great eye you have there! Thanks for highlighting that, that was a good laugh.

zee42 Yea, that's me grabbing my crotch. Actually I was trying to hold that bar down as tight as possible cause over the top when the coaster would go negative I felt like I was going to slide out. I'm used to having shoulder straps on when I go negative so it was a bit of an eerie feeling for me.

After 20+ years in the aviation community, and riding one of those roller coasters, I have come to realize that I do not like heights!! Go figure :?

This is gonna sound a bit concieted, but I don't care. Have you seen any of the pics of me? Girls chase me, I don't have to chase them. "I'm a single, successful guy" -I'll give you $1 if you can name that movie. It's also a man's world here (dating wise), the single girl/guy ratio is greater than 2:1.

[edit] I should note that I was attempting to be funny with those statements :lol:

I mentioned on one of the "suggestion" threads to add the stick poking emoticon just for that specific reason.

Who has ever had a squeek in the steering wheel after a long drive on a hot day? It was gone the next day, so I didn't worry much about it, but is there a history of this?
