That magic moment when we bond with machinery, the elation of the unleashed fury, the adrenalin rush of the flirting with danger.

I think all of us have taken the bridle off and given the thoroughbred a good run at some stage. Ive seen 200km/h in my 740iL (about 120mph) and was blown away by how much faster she wanted to go. Heady stuff indeed.

All of us have 'owned' a challenger at the lights (a few have been owned right back too), a few of us have powered away from someone chasing us on windy roads and a few of us have just enjoyed the shit-eating grin and 'eat me' look you have when cruising by with the roof open and a big smile.

You've just become addicted to something many of us have fallen victim to, and happily I might add.

Enjoy. I hope there's lots more to come for you.

Cheers
