well spoken +1

Cars are meant to be driven not worshiped. Grow up put some hair on your sacks and learn the true meaning behind life.

If something were to happen to the car I would rather it be me causing the damage rather then someone else thats all. I do not if that really makes sense but thats how I see it, at least I know it was MY fault something happened that I have to pay for.

my wife is a boss - her little 5'2" 100lb ass has been able to handle everything i have ever driven.

from FWD turbo'd beasts, to my WS6, to my lifted Ram, to my Cobb tuned 335, to my STi on meth, to my mobbed out SRT8 300C and now our two HEMI Challengers.

she drives the one with 470hp.

yeah, my wife could probably out drive most of the people who have posted in this thread.....

just sayin.......

But only if she's good at working the stick.

even though she has driven stick in the past, her 392 Challenger is an auto.

she tracks her own car too

upstatedoc · 11-01-2013, 01:01 PM

If you two were in Cali I'd have her go up against my ex-gf. Watching her rip that E90 M3 at the Performance Center and the E92 at VIR just made me tear up a bit. I was so proud.......

....not so much when she beat me at one event though.

She rubbed it in like no other.

our car club had a massive event at Hennessey's Facility here in Houston.

tons and tons of people showed up without helmets, so the track officials declared that only people running 11's needed to wear helmets.

Nope, I did. I see his point, but there were still a few who thought their BMW 3-Series was too beastly for a woman to handle.

i would love it if my wife chauffeured me around once in a while but she doesn't like driving. I pulled a back muscle a few days ago and I used that excuse so she could drive me to lunch and I think I felt like a Baus!!

dreamingat30fps · 11-01-2013, 07:55 PM

My gf can drive my car whenever she wants. She doesn't much care for driving my car, but she can drive stick so I have no issues with her driving it. It's actually great because if we go somewhere and I get hammered she can drive my car. Up until the SUV all our cars were stick.

I suppose since it's a dodge that drag racing is considered a track day.
