Do you have a fast car?



I was driving (the speed limit) in my car and this song came on the car radio - -

Wow - - I forgot how much I enjoy the song and Tracy Chapman


"Fast Car"     Tracy Chapman

    I'd not do well driving a truck at any speed, I don't think. I learned to drive stick shift on a big truck, though. :)

    That's okay about the song. 
    I've very used to liking what most others don't like.  :)
     
    Or not liking what most others do like.

    Ha!



    And I like how you used human body parts in your answer about a car - - gut and ass. Cool.     :)

      He should keep a cool head about that type of thing because a speeding ticket (or tickets, plural) could cost him an arm and a leg. The knee-jerk desire to apply the lead foot might seem pleasing at first, but the brain has to take over and calm that daredevil heart. I really have to hand it to Nevan, though, due to the way he’s always on the ball and doesn’t poke his chest out like a braggart. He nose what he’s doing. It’s no skin off my back how he drives, heck, I’m in San Diego and he’s in Sacramento, so we’ll most likely never cross each other’s driving paths or even lay eyes on each other. I might get a lump in my throat if I ever met him, he’s a really hip dude. I don’t know how to express it, I can’t really put my finger on it even though it’s right on the tip of my tongue, but it’s a sentiment of a brother from another mother.

    Wowww!
    :)

    There's a nearby rollercoaster at an amusement park that starts at a standstill -- and goes from 0 to 120 in about four seconds (or something like that) - - it petrifies me! Ha!  :)

    "Top Thrill Dragster' at Cedar Point amusement park in Sandusky Ohio, USA. Great park!

    Here are a couple of videos - - one POV and other off-ride.
    :)

    The opening of the ride is what scares me - - the 0 to 120 in four seconds.  :)

    I hope it works out that you do. :) 
    From your wording, it sounds like there are reasons that are keeping you from it; hope they can work out for you.
    I can meet you there if you'd like, ha! I've not been there in a several years, too.



    Believe it or not, it's the Windseeker that truly terrifies to my core! Ha!  :)

    It's pretty intense, yeah!  :) 
    Time-wise, it doesn't last very long.

    Key word...could. It's probably a steel I-beam somewhere.
