Re: Bust on MY driving?
I beat yas all i drove 36 hours straight thru from PA to New Mexico (do not
attempt this at home)
I was in a Scirocco with cut lowering springs and (at that time great)
Bilsteins. The ride was rough. Most of the way after the mississippi was
over 100Mph in a convoy of truckers (helped to have the 2510 C.b.) They kept
on asking me if I could keep up if they went faster so i had to go blowin by
them and get them all lookin and woundering what kind of car I had...Most of
them had it made out to be a lotus hehe they were all silent when i said it
was a VW. We did 100+ Mph in a convoy of over 30 rigs for at least 7 hours
until the sun came up. I even stopped for gas (damn can't hold 300 gallons
at one time) and caught back up to them (at 120-130+) Damn that must have
been the best ride I have even driven in a scirocco!!!
