What's wrong with that? Who normally goes more than 80 miles on a twisty ride?  :P

80 miles in 30 minutes in the twisties?

Further, if it's a 620.


Measly li'l S4R only can do so much.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

I think the comment was that to do 80 miles in 30 minutes, you would need to be going an average speed of 160 MPH.... and I don't know about you... but I have issues cornering at 160. Twisties may be a tad difficult to maintain that average.

I picked those numbers specifically to be sarcastic.  :P

I think a lot of it depends on the passenger.
I've had my girlfriend out for 4-5 hours w/ only the occasional stop and she's been fine with the stock seat.
