SVX - Canyon Carver!

[Chiketkd]

After owning my SVX for almost a week, the technological pedigree of this car continues to amaze me with each drive...

With my previous two cars being your good ol' american point-n-shoot '95 Camaro Z28 and 2000 SVT Lightning - both of which had waaay more hp than my SVX - I'm just thoroughly impressed by the way the SVX can cover the twisties markedly faster than anything I've ever driven (including my '90 300ZX TT)!

Yesterday, for instance, I took a route home which took me to 2.1 miles of lonely, twisty road where you would often find skid marks of cars that completely drove off the road into the ravine below... (gulp) The fastest my 380hp/450 ft-lb Lightning could cover this distance - with all four tires singing - was 3 min 10s at an average speed of 39mph. In my SVX, I was able to cover this horrendous stretch of road in just under 2 min 54s, without even breaking a tire loose.

Now, I'm not encouraging hooliganistic driving on the streets by any means (I personally have already attended several performance driving schools), but has anyone else ever gone looking for twisty roads to 'carve' SVX style?
