Well went out to eat with my family and a friend of ours who owns a Passat. And I asked him if I could drive it. He said yea sure, to my surprise since I'm only 16. So I left the restaraunt and flipped out that little badass key and started it up. Unbeknownst to me the speedometer read 160. I start it up and pull out of the parking lot and find a deserted road. I mash the gas and at first there is a slight lag but then the tach just jumped from 2 to 6. I nearly shit myself. As I got faster and faster I heard that turbo winding up, man it was enough to give ya butterflies. I managed to get up to 100 and then decided that was enough because I didn't want to find a surprise cop and get a ticket in a car I don't have insurance on or am registered under. But anyway, I had to tell some one of my adventures in the Passat and I figured this was the best place. Sorry if this is stupid, but yea i had to get the word out.
