Had an "S car moment" this weekend and figured I would share:
I was out running some errands with the wife, and happened to be in Paul K's
neck of the woods, home of Johnny's Mobile and 105 octane race gas. I
thought "what the hell" I'll give the old girl a treat (the car, that is).
I pulled in and up to the center pump that dispenses the liquid gold. I had
barely gotten the nozzle into the filler when the attendant popped out.
"So have you ever used the 105 before?"
"Nope"
"You know what it costs, right?"
"Yep, I know..." <smile>
"Um, ok. 'Cause some people put it in by accident."
Back inside he went wondering what kind of a nutcase would put $5/gallon
racing fuel into an old sedan. God, I love owning a sleeper. I thought
about explaining the whole A6/S6/it's really a fast car thing to him, but
opted instead to bark the Stromung at him on the way out. What a great car!
