TerminatorX5 is on a distinguished road
hehehe, the speed bug bites us all and wakes up the speed monster within...

Last time i did a "race" was couple of weeks ago, in VA beach. at the traffic light a new Range Rover pulls up... It is a cool looking rover, smaller than the big brother... so, at 1am, we are at the traffic light, he launches to the next light... I pull up nice and slow... my wife looks at me, like, WTF man, you forgot how to drive??? SMOKE HIM!!! oh boy, man do crazy things for women... turn off the DSC, throw gear into the S mode and at the green simply floor it - next patch between the lights evaporates faster than sweat off camel's back in Sahara... I think that RR has a six... maybe even 4!!! poor kid... needless to say that I did not go for another patch between the lights, after all, i had my kids sleeping in the back seat, and doing it once was too much already...

Several years ago I did take my 4.6iS upto 140 MPH once though - car was doing fine, but I chicken out!!!
