After a week here in Sacramento I 5099518685will never get into a car with my brother again, except to get to the airport. Eghhhh! Clicking bumpers @ 70mph on these freeways in heavy traffic all the while cursing at every other driver on the road, no thanks. I' m going home tomorrow and hope to never see a freeway again. Racing the Vette was mild compared to a ride to Cosco with my brother, he drives our moms Hunyda. Ha ha. Max still shaking

As we were driving past Henry's we got in a race with a new Vette. Holy crap, 125 mph is too fast for my 240 diesel Mercedes mentality. I guess it was a rush and I couldn't do anything anyway, I was just along for the ride. Max
