We're not so lucky here unfortunately.

Portland is really congested, it's a city that was designed in the 1870's and really hasn't grown much to accommodate traffic. A lot of downtown has been consumed by the TriMet train tracks.

Ahh that is rough! Sorry brother!

Tulsa is pretty great. Low to no traffic. And my daily commutes to work and the gym all have spots for more "Spirited Driving" haha

Yeah..this is why I say sometimes I wish I had a V6..








It's not all like that, but Metro Portland has a lot of side streets like that. The further out you get, the better it gets, but "Portland" Portland? Yeah...being hit by a train is a genuine concern most days.

I was feeling a bit obnoxious one night about 2 months ago and was running around finding every opportunity to rev and show off..

Then I got firmly put in my place by a 458 Italia.

There is a lot of money here.

I would be perfectly okay with being put in my place by something that nice.

I wish I had opportunities like that. There are quite a few Ferraris, lamobs, 911 turbo S, 1000HP supras, and Alpha GTRs, just haven't found each other yet on the road.

Still haven't seen a 458 Italia, Im sure I wouldn't mind losing if it meant i got to stare at it, not sure how fast they are though.
