not cool at all
Lost my license , have not driven my car for 2 and a half weeks!!! does not sound like much when i write it down like this, but feels for ever, only another 2 weeks to go (hopefully).Been driven around by the girlfriend in her car cos she wont drive mine and i dont blame her cos im NOT a good passenger. took the vette out of the garage let it run for 10 min gave the throttle a couple of quick stabs. OK ive learnt my lesson. Dont get CAUGHT speeding.
but seriously, im going to have to go to the track to let loose from now on.
