Quite often on the highway I get challenged by a SUV. They take one look at
my roadster and think they can blow by me and cut me off. No can do! The
look on their faces when I pull away at over 80 is worth a thousand bucks.
Now I know what's up. Their front ends! Our roadsters are far more
maneuverable than many new cars.
I know when to quit (like against an Integra and other small rockets). But
a lot of these bloated jelly bean cars can't keep pace with our roadsters.
Just my 2 cents.
