DUCKMAN

It's been 17 days since I was reunited with my 550. Yes, I agree with Mr. Bush, I AM addicted to oil. I find myself buying a lot more and now, only the good stuff. Compared to oil, marijuana is nothing. I need my fix. And this drug also requires that I drive fast. The car possesses me. I MUST drive fast. If I let someone go by me, I ask myself a question -- am I going to let that happen again. So far I haven't been caught by the police but it's only time. What can I do? Will this need for speed ever abate? When I enter tight turns requiring braking, I don't feel like I am going fast enough unless I see that the safety functions illuminate on the dashboard. Now that I am at 2700 miles, I am almost completely free of the break-in period. Maximum rpms are soon to be the norm. Is there a psychological program I can enter? Will electro-shock therapy hurt? Will the judge cut me some slack when I explain my problem? I wish I could let him (or her) drive the car before they take away my driver's license.

Move to Germany...they don't have speed limits...

But if you get stuck in jail and need someone to buy your car...I will be willing...I am up in Fairfax....

I for one understand you. But most of the time for me i go even further, going for full fun. DSC completly off, and slides and tire smoke. Also when it comes to speeding i find myself glued to the thorttle. It like if i suddenly floor it i can't take my foot down (of course if conditions are met(traffic)) till i end up at 250. And every time i do it i get a big smile on my face, and a surge of adrenaline.

But the most important thing is the fact that i drive most of the time in town. So traffic is often quite heavy and the roads are not in the best shape to floor it. But there are pices of roads that are either wide enough and good in tarmac quality or traffic free. I have roads like those near my home. Now the strange part comes into play. Whenever i head home i get a tingling sensation to not go home straight away and give it a hard run on those kind of roads even though i detach from the road to home. That happens quite alot and most of the time i follow that senasation. Also i must add that most of the time i'm alone in the car when i do that so there's no room for thinking i'm doing it to show off or smth. It's just for mu pleasure. It's like the car is a little monster that wants to be fed and usual runs to the university or to work don't do it. Then after i had my fun wich lasts a few minutes i head home again returning on the same road. Anyone else experienced stuff like that?

Happens all the time ... I usually get a "where have you been" from the wifey and I sheepishly have to admit that I was just "out for a drive." My family thinks I'm a loon.

Duckman - yes, this is an intense addiction.
