      the only time I don't like driving the Festy is when I can't muster enough speed to pass the goober in front of me. But, that's currently being addressed...

            That is when it is time to be aggressive, B-E Aggressive :twisted:

            Ever get stuck behind a slow poke, with another next to you on a 2 lane road? The festy is small enuff that you can get way to the opposite side of your lane farthest from the goober beside you, then jerk the wheel, and recover just before you side swipe him/her. The goober usually freaks, puts on the brakes, you accelerate around :twisted: My wife HATES it when I do that with her in the car....

            I like delivery in mine, any time except lunch traffic, Chapel Thrill has become my favorite go kart track of all time! They put in a bunch of those loooong speed humps to slow traffic, but with the short wheel base, I barely notice 'em. At work, they have taken to calling them "paully bumps", (or johnny bumps, he drives kinda nutz as well).
            I miss delivery in daytona beach, though. It has longer roads, higher speed limits, so you don't get all the twisty turns that are so much fun, but I grew up there, went to school with most of the cops. They let me get away with murder, and told me in advance when and where not to be crazy(residential before 10 o'clock, etc....)

                Cruisin' Yellowstone Nat. Park in late May. Driving 35-40mph and ejoying the scenery. Not as many tourists and the weather is usually warm enough by then to have the windows down without using the heater. I take my daughter and we don't really plan too much. We just decide let's stop and see this or maybe will catch it next time.

                  I agree, anytime I drive it. But, there is something special about driving up North in the Muskoka area, big hills, curves.... man and machine baby.

                    Hey, that's my station, if I ever turn the radio on. Id rather hear the car run. My favorite part of the day is going to or from work . I seriously look forward to cruising down the interstate in a festiva. I love the connection to the road. Its the real deal, no cover up.

                                ^^so that leaves 60 seconds to sleep/eat... LOL!!

                                For me it (USED TO BE) is on a sunday arfternoon. I would spend all morning cleaning the car. I would then have a shower, grab the missus and off to the road. We generally went somewhere different every time, but some places would revisit.
                                Aaaaaahh. Those were the days.....
