decided to go for a spin cos its my day off & i needed to pick up afew parts and FUCKIN 'ELL  i'd forgotten how fast it could be 
i normally drive it every day & im guessing im just used to the speed 
enjoyed the drive tho  & the punk in the mondeo @ the lights tried to race me  ........not a chance

Corsa did today for the first time really!
Was raining and hadnt driven in the wet yet!
Pulled onto a dual carriageway and booted to find the revs flying round and wheels spinning up done this untill i got the revs down and in 3rd gear!! was quite happy though as a golf gti went to overtake me when i was spinning and when i got traction,
bye bye

my car only scares me in the amount of fuel it drinks and the fact ive gone through 2 engine mounts and that the handbrake that was fucked now works.

Braking from 135mph for a roundabout and the brakes totally fading is a pretty pant staining moment
