They could do the 2904, which already exists. It’s the cannonball, but with their budget for everything being the dollar amount equaling the mileage of the trip. 2904 miles = $2904 for EVERYTHING. Car, fuel, tickets, food countermeasures, the whole 9 yards.

@@pnb17001 I honestly would not ever believe this tbh, not for another 5+ years at least. Crown Vics (In very very sparse and shrinking numbers within police) are still used in Police forces in lower budget departments or reserves due to their long term usability. Even seeing them as straight up Taxis still even. The Crown Vic is old enough that most people 30+ definitely know what it is because of its age and significance. It is also Iconic enough I believe anyone young and born before 2012 would even know what one is even, again, for the reasons above.

Having also grown up at the drag strip, my two favorite things were the smell of race gas being burned by the engines, and feeling the vibration from a T/F Funny Car or Dragster reverberate through my chest from barely 25ft away at launch. Fucking mind boggling how much power they have. If I could get greedy and throw in my 3rd, it’d have to be the jet cars. I loved them so much as a kid that I found out a way to mimic the sound they make while prepping and staging, if you’re wearing earplugs. It sounds the exact same to me whether I’m making that sound myself or at the track watching them with earplugs in. It’d be tricky to describe how I do it exactly, and I honestly can’t remember how I even figured it out, but it sounds the same to me and I still get a kick out of watching jet cars run when I get the chance.

I have thought for a long time that the DMV should make a new class of drivers license. Perhaps the S class. S meaning speed of course. And the test would be have the driver attend a pro driving course that would teach the drivers high speed driving on multiple surfaces.

[@fastinradfordable]

But the problem is stupid people drive bad at even very low speeds. Think grandma merging with no signal. That’s why you shouldn’t speed. Not to mention that you can’t see obstacles in front of you when you go too fast. There is no reason to speed in a car. Unless en route to hospital. Any other time you speed you are being selfish

I just think there's a time and a place. We definitely have the places with all the less traveled roads and times of day when people can unleash their cars. It happens anyway might as well make it safer.
