The sun has got his hat on

[stevec]

So we have a wet, foggy, snowing, cold, damp weekend.
Still enjoyed being with the family, took the dog for a couple of nice long walks, dropped the boy off somewhere, picked him up form somewhere else and soon it was Monday.

Drove to work in the cold and the damp and then spent 5 hours at my desk fighting off problems coming up with solutions and then I went home for lunch and......

The sun was out!

I pushed the button on the sunglasses drawer and eased the sunglasses over my squinting eyes, pushed the button that fired the 5.0l V8 into life and started the drive home.

The Orange paintwork on the hood shone as I drove along the road, acknowledging a couple of admiring glances as I went along my way.

Started down towards my house, following a learner driver but just as I was going to signal to turn into my driveway, the learner turned off and I have the open road in front of me.

So, I knocked her down a couple of cogs and opened her up.

Ten minutes later, with a smile on my face I pulled in to my driveway for my lunch. Suddenly the day seems brighter. This car is awesome anyway but when its dry, its just amazing!

Dog didn't seem that impressed with her shorter walk though!

That's probably why the dog hurled in your seat the last time ;)!

I literally just did something similar.

DPD were delivering tyres to my house between 12:54 - 13:54, gotta love their 1hr delivery window.

So the sun glasses came out, I walked upto the M3 looking filthy but ready for more like a dirty so so. Got in, harnesses fastened, check, DSC disabled, check, sport mode activated, check, gear box into S6 full attack, check!

Out the car park, proceeded to attach the roads and every corner with so much commitment, some of the dustier sections the tail was waggling but with absolute finesse. Opening up banging through the gears at 8000rpm.

Arrive home smiling, see that after yesterdays cleaning old man magnetic is looking clean and water spots about to dry, so with speed, hose the car off and a quick gentle drying session whilst waiting for Mr. DPD to arrive, just as I finish, he drops of my nice sticky Ferrari tyres. Oh yaaaaa!

Back in the M3, harnesses fastened, everything dialled upto eleven, out my side road sideways, down the hill full chat, lots of looks in disgust, driving quick, but no brakes knowing that in my boot is one massive truck Ferrari tyre, so easy on those brakes, don't want a tyre attacking me, though in theory it would never get past the bright yellow climbing frame.

Arrive at Jaguar specialist, drop the tyre off, measure it up, can't see any real reason what makes it a Ferrari tyre, except it feels light and only 6.9mm tread new.

Back in, dialled upto eleven again, sideways out of Jaguar, engage 2nd, much wheel spin, put the car sideways and spin it around the junction blast it up the road next to the high walls listening to the induction sing of the walls, into work sideways, into park space.

Glasses removed, heart beating, damn that was fun though I am sure I disgraced at least ten people on my drive with my wasp like sounds and roaring induction sound track, nothing turns heads better, even beats the Mustang for noise from the front-end.

My gym is 2 miles from my house. Yesterday I drove +20 miles to get there.

 

[hinch]

i drove the 2 miles to the office and its been in the carpark all day and it'll stay there until 6pm tonight when it'll probably be cold/wet/shitty

Since I got the car think we've only had probably 2 good days to go out and hammer it and at the time i was still breaking the engine in so couldn't do much :( so looking forward to summer

 

[Centurion07]

Real drivers put it in race mode and hammer it in all weathers!

 

[hinch]

With all that extra driving you didn't need the gym!!

I may use race mode but I put the steering back to normal mode.:gossip:

This sport mode on steering is aweful!

There is an easier solution though, just hold the traction button up for 15s.

Must admit took my baby out for a drive today, really enjoyed it

That's how to turn MPSS/PS4S into Pzero mode right?
