The down side came when I came around a blind turn with some Asshat sonofabitch scoundrel in a truck was in my lane. I laid on my brakes and let the 7000 RPM's drop to 1000. He got back in his lane, good thing as it turned out as I could not stop in time. But I did come to a stop to have him flip me off. I nearly came unglued.

When you are mad, upset etc driving can have ramifications. I was really mad. I am way too old to let this get to me, but it did. I continued driving uphill and when I got to the top I saw nearly 90, and was about to punch it and go down hill. I finally got hold of myself and brought it down to regular speeding. Although it was an exhilarating drive, I must reiterate do not drive when you are mad.
