Can you describe your ultimate driving fantasy, a time/place/vehicle that you would be happy to freeze in time or relive in your head forever. For example, mine is going down a desert highway, in the cool of the night, in a Mustang convertible (with the eagles Hotel California playing on the radio).. very unimaginative I know

300km/h past the Victorian state parlement house with the slip stream knocking Scrooby and Lay on their bums and into a speed camera causing both of them to suffer amnesia and take legal action against the Victorian government for misusing road safety as a revinue source instead of a public service.

Ultimate driving fantasy?
Being able to do a consistent 100km/hr on the Gateway motorway, with people keeping left after overtaking. ![]() That is a real fantasy.

LJ Torana down Conrod with highway to hell playing. Road up near/daintree rainforest in an Impala. Personal best bit of driving I've done old road near home country queensland, nice corners can see through them in my old gemini.

Route 66, in a 63 T-bird convertible. Not a cloud in the sky. The best 60's and 70's rock n roll playing through the stereo. Then on through the night, moonlight creating an errie silver glow off the chrome work.
Yeah cheesy, but without a doubt a slice of heaven. |
