Uhh Ok ... so tell you what ....

You go out and drive an $80K Porche .. that probably means you'll be looking at
a '99 Carrera 4 .. then go out and drive a Viper GTS.   You'll be openin the
door and kickin granny out while you lay 200 ft pathes of rubber to make up for
the fact that you can't stop pissin yer pants :-)

Driven a Viper .... the word "Heaven" doesn't do it justice.  And no .. it's not
physically demanding to drive, it's downright civilized.
