Things Can Change

"Ed, let's be realistic. You thrashed those Falkans for the last 6,000 miles and now you are instantly going to become a more sedate driver with your new PS2's on the car?

Not gonna happen. You have tasted the blood of high speed, edge-of-the-envelope driving in your Porsche and you have spoiled yourself for life. Your butt dyno is conditioned to the thrill of breaking it loose and you can't go back!!!"


Ahh, yes, good points, but things do sometimes change. For example, I attended an out-of-town workshop last weekend. After the workshop I met a very interesting fellow. We started discussing what my liscense plate means (NAMISTI). He seemed to know it was a Indian greeting that acknowledges the light in all of us.

I thought that was pretty unusual, most folks dont have a clue what the plate means. We had an interesting philosophical discussion about such things...... and then he gave me my speeding ticket. Because the highway patrol officer was such a nice guy he made the ticket out for only 80 in a 65 zone so the charge would not be reckless driving.

So, based on that recent experience, I have a little additional motivation to take a little better care of my tires and such........
