how do ya like it?
well, for the first time ever, i got to sit AND ride in a ferrari. even though it was for 2 minutes, it was really cool. heres how the story goes...
on sunday i was at private tennis lessons, and my coach coaches a vasity team for a school called punahou, one of the top private schools. anyways, he told me that today one of his kids mikey was gonna be driving a 360 modena that he rented for a day, costing him 1200 bucks...... so after my lesson was over, i waited for about 10 minutes, and sure enough i hear this roaring, like a super big muffler or something come down the street. it was echoing everywhere. he put it into park, and a nissian spec V and the 360 both started to rev their engines. anyways, the guy mikey asked my coach if he wanted a ride, but my coach had to say no, because he was teaching someone else. then my coach goes and tells me, tyler, go look at the car. i said sure, and started going there. then, my coach yells out that im coming over. keep in mind that i dont know any of these guys, theyre from a different school, and older tnan me. anyways, i get there, and he says, wanna go for a ride? i said, uhhh sure.
it took me about 2 minutes to figure out how to open the door, because i didnt wanna break anything. so anyways, i got in and we were off. first he told his friends that he was going here and back. no big deal. so first, goes onto the road, goes about 20 mph, and just floors it. basically, we went for about 20 mph to 80 mph in less than 4 seconds. it was the most fun of my life, but at the same time, it was the scarriest thing thats happened in my life. i was scared that either a kid was gonna run out onto the street, or a car was gonna come in front of us. keep in mind that we were in a residential area, where the speed limit is 25 mph :O. so anyways, we zoomed all the way down the street, turned around, and went back, wayyy slower. i think we went back at around 40ish. lol, when we were turning around, mikey's friend in the spec V was like, "what the hell was that???". i guess he didnt expect mikey ot go THAT fast in a residential area... man, this guy mikey was a nice guy, that loved cars. sure the 360 was dirty and full with swirls, but i didnt really care, because it was just a rental. just being in the car, and listening to the engine roar, as my body was pinned against the back of the seat, and my heart beating super fast. now THAT was the most fun ive ever had in my life, something ill never forget.
didnt get any pics, because i dont usually bring my digital camera to tennis practice

OK, I can see we're going to have some comprehension issues here.
