If you're referring to me again it wasn't heavy traffic.

It couldn't be with this car.

How could I get up to 115 in heavy traffic?

If I didn't have wide open interstate, with no need for braking it might be impossible.

And, yes, I am aware of the physics involved.

Go fast, bigger boom.

I get it.

I regret ever bringing it up.

I feel like I just got through mentioning to a room of elderly relatives that I once smoked pot.
