I KNOW it's not me they were looking at.
Just made my week, is all.
Full Version: Got a thumbs-up while doing a test-drive yesterday
I just got through updating the "gas gauge" on the electric 914, and decided to take it for a drive. Just as I was pulling up to the stop sign near my house, two cute girls pull up at the stop to my right. Their jaws drop, and both give two thumbs up.
I KNOW it's not me they were looking at.

Always a cool experience! Did you "rev it up" for them?

Rev what
Electric motors don't really rev but maybe you could add sound effects... 
Like putting playing cards on a bike.

Thats what I meant, but apparently my humor is about as misunderstood on a forum as it is in real life.
I got it George. Kinda like the "gas gauge".
I was amused.

Heh, that WAS funny, and yes I did rev it for them. Sean calls it the "spaceship" sound. Not sure if you can hear it outside the car tho.
Hey, at least I have really good acceleration now (well, for a 914).

The sound of the Toyota TS030s leaving the pits at Le Mans this year was KILLER!
