Ok maybe I stepped on my foot saying pin the throttle. I often engage in what I call spirited driving, which includes the occasional spur into triple digits, on back roads and highways where I am familiar with enforcement patterns. Do you really believe people drive the speed limit at all times. Additionally, all roads in the US are not shit, don't be naive. The truth of the matter is that all performance car are unnecessary, but they are fun to drive.
