When I first bought mine I was driving home on a long straight dual cartridge way and a MX5 came bobbing up behind me, giving the Boxsters ass a sniff a little to close so I dropped a gear and put my foot down. When I felt I was going fast I looked at the dash and it said i was doing "123 mph" and I still had another gear to go!
Looking in the mirror and there was a little red dot in the distance (the mx5).
Laughing to myself like a mad man I slowed down, heart pumping and amazed at how fast, and more scary was how easy it is to drive fast without knowing it. The hood was down too.
I then cruised all the way home under 70 and haven't been much over 80 ever since.
I did learn one lesson from this though. Wear a cap! My first day out in the Box and I had half a sun burned face and looked a pillock.
If anybody wants to race me I let them past now...knowing that you can probably beat them if you want is a wonderful thing.
