hot, but i can't complain. you don't live in the south for the mild summers. and there are a bunch of country backroads a quarter mile away that have no speed limits and narrow shoulders for some technical driving. lots of trail braking and weight transfer to enjoy

i stick to route 28 from utica to inlet, and usually hit moose river road for some fun. but rt 8 up to utica is freaking awesome as long as you can stay out from behind the trucks

Same reason for the AW ban, cuz liberals.

I think LA is a large part of it, the location of it causes smog to sit in the basin it is located in. I dont live anywhere near that shithole but a lot of people do, hence the regulations.

Whats the point in having a fun car that isn't a muscle car here? I know of a single hairpin in my area(Oshawa) and every other curve in a road is just a big sweeper or hard turn immediately followed by a stop sign. I guess if your're in the Kawartha lakes area a lot a sports car would be fun but you pretty much have to be a millionaire to be in that position.

or you can just not be stupid and slow down to a manageable speed

What about speeding isn't stupid? We don't drive around at high speed to be safe.
>>
>>15433510

you don't have to drive at high speeds to have fun, you just have to drive near the limits of your car

my parents own a 1993 caravan that they use as a NY work vehicle for the cargo room and, if needed, the seating. it's slow but it has low limits, so you might think you're really going fast because you can feel the body roll and the traction build through the steering wheel through tight turns but you look down at the speedo and you realize that you're never going so fast that you're in any danger

>do you think having emissions testing makes for a better used car market?

Yes. It reduces the chance of getting a scam car. That's because some of the cars with junk engines and parts cannot make it past emissions testing, thus they scrapped for parts instead of being sold by a scammer as a used car. Insist on the used car being able to pass emissions testing before buying it. With regular official testing, that also makes odometer fraud more risky since mileage is tracked across time and the car's physical performance should match the odometer. After all, if it runs rough but the odometer is low, then it was treated roughly or is a lemon. If it runs the same as in the previous sentence but has high odom reading, then you can assume it was treated well to get that far.

>Same reason for the AW ban, cuz liberals.

The problem with mixing cars and AW is you get those drive-by shootings. AW can be used for self-defense, but it is better as a first-strike weapon.

i live about an hour from the 129 dragon.
it's a n00bfest on the weekends, but about 4 am on friday mornings we rip the snot on one out and back, then leave.
usually nobody's there, you can spot headlights of oncoming traffic if there are others.
so the entire width of the road is usable.
hell yeah !!

on the other hand, the traffic is awful and the surface streets are wildly inefficient. Lots of Floridian halfbacks and old rich people driving slow. Like 10 under on a 60 mph highway while traffic is doing 80+. That kind of slow.
