Default vent driving

man after a hard and agrivating day of work i like to go for a little joy ride around the countryside before i get home...it really hepls you cool down....well i did that today and i noticed that 2nd gear didnt end until like 65...that PWNs!!!
anyway, the road i drive down goes through a ranchy style area and has long straightways mixed in with sharp turns and relativly few commuters so its a fun ride....
so who else does these "vent drives" when they want to cool down and relax???

OO yea I go on vent drives. Thats usually when I drive my worst tho (too fast, unsafely), and I cant afford anymore tix. But it is fun to get some frustration out, with your car. What kinda car do you have?

i need to hit about 100mph to get any frustration out, curvy roads with no cars are a rare occurance close to me, so i hit it on a nice straight area when no one is around, or run throught the business district at night when its all closed
