Default First ride

Took the Jag out Friday night for the first time. Cruzed around Atlanta, top down, it was great. Got into race with a Corvette, got beat but had a blast. Car runs great, everything works. I set aside money for tires, etc. I may have to add to that fund for bail $.

And to quote Clint, A man's got to know his limitations. These are Grand Tourer, not Sports cars. I wouldn't try to show off to anyone - and this includes Camry's, Accords, Taurus's. You never know what they've got under the hood..

I know when the Corvette took off it sounded like a NASCAR. I knew then I bite more than I could handle. I still think the Jag looked better losing than the vetted did winning.
