Oh we jest.... Alas, in a rental out in Florida, I decided to pull out from a side road in a gap that my 530 would own any day of the week. My lowly powered rental alas needed a much larger break in traffic than I allowed, and I found my right foot plunged deep on the go pedal to get moving in a rapidly decreasing gap. As the car approached red line, I went for a quick gear change and mashed the 'clutch' pedal of my automatic down leaving a rather healthy number 11 on the road. The guy behind me left an even larger 11, and probably left himself a 1 somewhere along the line too.

I somehow think that I may have made it onto Krozi's does anyone know how to drive thread. I sadly tender my resignation as a driver...

I know what its for, it's all the way to the left and it's for resting my foot when I am using cruise control right?
