Project 7 Virgin, No more.

Project 7 Virgin, No more.
Saturday was the day I lost my Project 7 virginity.
Back from the Lobster Run, Saturday was the first opportunity to take the Project 7 on it's first run. The weather was perfect, Roads were finally cleared of the winter sand and stones.
First impressions, the sound is fabulous this is so much louder than my R coupe. Hard to see the the power difference on the road, but the handling is superior due to tweaked suspension and track focused tires. There is a hair pin curve on my favorite route with speed warnings all over to slowdown to 15 MPH, I normally take this turn at around 30-40, in the P7 went straight to 50 mph first try. The P7 just took the turn like it was on rails, not even a chirp from the tires. My wife told me if I did that again she was going to puke.
I know if I get my wife close to vomiting, I am doing well.
Looking forward to next weekend...weather outlook is perfect and we have a long weekend in Canada.

LOL . . . Sounds familiar.
When I tell my wife I'm running an errand, if she says she wants to go, and if I'm taking the F-Type, all I have to do is ask, "are you sure?" It took awhile, but the answer is now, "no that's OK." She has learned that's code for, "you will be subjected to G-loads you do not like." :-)
Now the above is not as bad as it may sound. If it's something fun, I do invite her along and promise her I'll be good. The only problem with that is I have a base without active exhaust, and I have no valves to close to make it quiet. It's too loud for her all the time.

Poor gas mileage, triple digits speeds, what else am I gonna take the rap for? Gaining 10 pounds in 3 1/2 days? (My guess is that's why Zach and Lisa left early; although they did stay for said Lobster Roll. I wonder...).

Next thing you're going to tell me is Tamela is eating, enjoying and ordering lobster [from Libby's; like another Lobster Runner already has me doing].

Thanks for a great time!

Ah yes, I forgot...I am [also] the cause of Unhingd's sooty tail pipes. Sorry about that U. Oh, and the very last thing I ever want to do is think; for myself much less others.

With Liz as her attorney! (Thankfully Liz doesn't do divorce law). I mean, was it really all that bad? I got us all through infraction-free didn't I? With perhaps lingering smiles all around?
