   Yep, it may be fast, but I guess what I have a problem with
is the "perception of speed". You can't really tell you're going
fast unless your eyes are the size of dinner plates and you need
a change of underwear. ;-) Going fast in a "refined" vehicle
is about the same as sitting in your La-z-boy and watching a
speedometer on your TV. I think I'd be happier going 20mph on
a death trap moped than I would at 150mph in a BMW. :-)
