Fired up Sabbath for a quick lap around the neighborhood. It is an absolutely gorgeous night out. Cool, slight breeze, plenty o stars - Haven't seen ole Johnny in awhile,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, 
OK! Coast is clear. In I go, fires up after some heavy pumping of the pedal. Fires up, check lights.
DAMN!
Whole left side is out. Should I chance it??
Decide it is better not to - out comes the multi-meter. After a quick look over, a fuse is missing...
Funny, it was there last month.............Scour home and skunk works for fuse.
Nothing
Then I start wonder aloud : "How would VanWilder handle this??"
Ok, rob fuse for headlight retract and go!
HA! IT WORKED!!
Start pulling out of yard, see a car coming. Decide better not chance it - tags are out and no ins. (but is just a lap around a gated community)
Car passes. It is local PD!
So I sit and "wait him out"
Been 5 minutes, and no repeat drive-by............I making a run for it!
Quickly I zing in the opposite direction. Quickly make turn towards interstate bypass. Slap shiftin @ 6800!
Make another turn, then another, then I see it! The Texas turn-around is coming up. 180-degrees of newly asphalted apex - I shift to second, RPM's hovering @6100, speed about 58 but cannot really tell due to malfunctioning speedo with crazed bouncing needle!!!!
I swing to the outside and then dive deep to the inside, no braking, just pure throttle control.....get all four HOWLING and a nice perfectly aligned drift to the right - - not much, just a foot or two.
DAMN! I forgot how freaking NIMBLE this thing is, how perfectly BALANCED!! 
Coming up on turn two of the turnaround - got a stop sign to contend with now -
Doing about 50 at this point and still a slight drift - quickly come off the gas while burying my foot into the brake, fully stopped from 50 in about 100 feet flat!! Freaking GRIP!!
Make the west bound turn onto the frontage - -keeping my cool now, got two lights to go and then..............
Ok, HERE i AM!! I thought to myself. The one stretch of road I am fully blessed to be living next ------
9 miles of ruler straight, no other cars around, top speed high test facility ---
The light turns yellow for the cross lanes - -
I hold the brake with my right foot while blipping the gas with the remaining side of exposed foot ...letting out the clutch until a firm tightness is met...
Light is red now,,, countdown time...................
2 seconds and it is GREEN FOR ME!!!!
ONE! --- RPM's raised to a steady 65oo ---------slight release of brake pressure, allow the car to "inch it in"
Two! --- Letting clutch out , watch RPM's fall to 6100 and continue --- Bury my foot in the gas while slipping her out-----Foot comes off the brake fully---
GREEN! --- Snatch first @ 7100 RPM's - Tires spin about 4 revs and HOOK! Less than a second and shifting up mad!!
Second, don't miss third! I say to myslef as I watch the needle swing madly past the red, see 7200 and BAM!
A perfect third shift - I am pushing the gas pedal so freaking madly I just know I am goin to rip it out of the floor!!!
BAM! 7200 again and fourth arrives - I begin to notice a definite decline in forward ummph.....I really got to do my turbo set-up I onder loudly in my head --
BOOM! Fifth gear - smoking at 105 right now and climbing, but falling off even more rapidly than before---that is ok I think - I still have 8 and 1/2 miles to go --
I AM Giving BlackSabbath pure HELL!!! - I am asking, no demanding more! more! MORE!!!!
Keepn it buried until she coughs and wheezes ---
See 142 and she is done! That is it! No more ass hole--get your fucking foot outta my ass already Sabbath says to me...................
And then it really happens - - - the completely UNIMAGINABALE!!! SHIT!!! Son of a BITCH!!!
I wake up from my dream ---
I do not even remember falling alseep --------
Or was it?????
