    As a passenger, I drove with a friend through a tunnel at a speed I have yet to experience in a car, but I felt extremely comfortable. I have other friends that I would never get in their cars with because they are crazy drivers, and do not have the respect to properly handle the available power at hand.

    Do some of your friends scare the hell out of you when you are in the passenger seat?

    I'd rather say I have only one friend I have no apprehension being in the passenger seat. All others are crazy numbnuts! LOL

    I know a car guy who likes to drive really fast. It really scares me sometimes, so I've told him that fast driving makes me car sick and puts me at danger of throwing up in his car.

    Try being a car salesman...........heh.

    About thirteen years ago on a test drive in a new BMW 735il, I had the proverbial little 75 year old (filthy rich mind you) lady turn across three lanes of traffic to make a left turn when she realized she was going to miss the exit ramp.

    I was constipated for a week. You don't need speed to get scared....but I hear ya brother.

    yeah - but did she buy the car(s), and did you got a decent risk-premium!

    Remember the used RX7 salesman about 10 years ago that killed his client while driving out of the dealership? Goes both ways - but always surprised we don't see more test drives gone bad. I remember 20 yrs ago scaring a dealer, great fun!
