Hey, I already get that rush with my truck now, imagine what it'll be like on Tuesday!
BTW, I had a nice adrenaline rush on the freeway last night. I was so pumped I was on a high for about an hour and a half!
I was on the freeway (3 lanes on my side with an intermittent right exit only lane) going with traffic at about 80-85 mph. We were in a pretty large sized pack, but with plenty of spacing. All of a sudden, the pack ahead of us, about 20 cars, slows to about 50. I could just see an accident waiting to happen. I whipped into the acceleration lane (#1), got up to about 105, then changed to the #2, then #3, then back to the #2 lane. I'd cleared most of the pack, but there was a rig in the middle lane and a Boxter, a Vette, and a Z3 passing it in the left lane. So I passed the truck on the right, then moved to the middle in time to wave to all the old farts (sorry, they were) in their nice cars. It was an interesting 40 seconds! Needless to say, I ended up doing 12 miles in 12 minutes on that trip, including 3 miles of that off highway.
I normally don't drive that aggressively, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do! It helps when you've done some autocrossing and gone through an emergency driving class, though! After taking that class and tossing an ambulance around, an Explorer is no problem!
So, who wants to ride with me after I get the blower?
