Simple, set your chronograph (pick any hi-end brand you like) five minutes ahead.

Same here, but it is three Corvettes to see who is going to be parked inside vs the one that goes to the park and ride ( going to sit outside all day anyway), and the one doing errands. The blue one needs to come inside and sit on a tender more often, because it rarely gets driven at this point.



Definitely first world probs.
