Default First time on highway....

Went to a wedding down by Ft Myers yesterday,took the scenic route down and I75 back,first time I had my car at 100-105 mph,blew some carbon buildup out from the fossil who owned my car B4 I got it,the handling was awesome,the car would cruise around 80 and with a tiny acceleration would be up to 100 in seconds,it hugged the road like hooking a sting ray that wants to chill on the ocean floor,very impressed for first time opening my car up!.! (ps wasnt drunk lol )

I work a lot,have a 7 month old kid,and went like 45 miles south. I work 1.5 miles from my house and usually take my other car everywhere and put miles on it,Ive only had the Audi for about 3 weeks so do I get out much? More like I live close to/in the middle of everything in my city and never got out and opened my car up.It has power but it could use a 6th gear.

I like how your mods are totaly not legible in your sig, and how it doesnt matter because there are asses and thongs which are the main focal point...

I am not big on speeding and I dislike the idiots who cruise on interstates at 100+ but I do find it sometimes necessary to pass the people in the fast who keep to the speed limit and don't get over to the slow lane. I was heading home from Chico, CAon I-5 following this lifted F-250 in the fast lane. This guy was cruising at 75mph which is the limit. Everybody likes to push it a bit. I usually hit the cruise control at 80-82. CHP's (NOT ALL) usually go for people 10 over (at the least). I followed this guy for awhile but we had a line of cars building. Problem was, and I'm sure this goes for a lot of interstates, we couldn't pass due to the line of semi's hauling their loads. I finally saw an opening but I knew I had to be quick about it. I cut into the right lane and accelerated. I passed the F-250 and beautifully slid back into the left. It literally felt like nothing. The handling was superb. It was so beautiful, I hadn't realized I was changing lanes at 115mph. I mean, holy ****! I had no idea but I am just happy these babies can hug the road. And that's my story.
