Ultimate Driving Fantasy

dylancox · 01-11-2010, 02:39 AM

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

Driving LA to Vegas (Route 66) in an old classic. E.g. Cadillac, Mustang, whatever.

Let's go! I'm ready! Gotta full tank of gas!
Half a packet of cigarettes!
We'll take mine so we can blend in!

I did it in a 1.4L Turbo Diesel Peugeot 206. Does that count? It did do 170km/h quite nicely, eventually.

Got a rented Mondeo Diesel wagon up to and maintained 210 between Schweinfurt and Hamburg when last over in Europe , scared my coworker to death , told him to lighten up and live a little . Mind you we were being passed every few seconds by Benzes , BM's , Audi's , Porsches etc , you get the idea . He told me afterwards he'd never been above 100 KPH in a car in his life . For some strange reason he has refused to ever get in a car with me since that day .

Would love to cut a few laps on the Nurburgring.

Ultimate driving fantasy though...mmm, any Zonda on any road.

Australia needs it's own Nordschiefe styled open race road.

ExAreSix · 01-11-2010, 01:08 PM

Yep, Nurburgring. In my STi, or an E46 M3.

Driving the Italian Alps, in a Lamborghini, with Matt Monro on the radio.

Hotlap on the Nurburgring with Sabine Schmitz. That woman pushes all my buttons.

Iggypoppin' · 01-11-2010, 01:49 PM

Hmmm...well I don't want to breach T&C so I'll just say it involves a GT40 and Jessica alba...

Whilst I like your choice of car, I think you'll find I'll never be finished with Ms Alba and she won't want to leave that GT40 once I've shown her a few laps in that thing!

fiestaz · 01-11-2010, 02:03 PM

Alps of Europe, Switzerland, or Italy, in a Manual Aston Martin Vantage, convertable..... ohh yehhh..... either that or my own Fiesta will do

flappist · 01-11-2010, 02:13 PM

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.

Defiantly a flappist comment for you

FTE72 · 01-11-2010, 02:32 PM

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.

My idea would be much the same. Crusing the deserted australian highways alone in a all black XB Falcon GT coupe on a warm summers night. Just following the open road no matter where it takes me. Absoulte freedom! (til I run out of fuel).
