Keystone Heights representin. Yea...most of ya'll haven't heard of this place...ya wanna know why?! Cause it's so small that if you blink when you get close to it, you drive right through it. I'm serious. For such a small town, there sure are a lot of Porsches here!!

I'm from Hope, went to college in Arkadelphia. I miss those Arkansas highways. I've driven my 911 back there 3 times in 6 months...so 20,000 miles total since bought it new in the summer. a wonderful 20K miles.
An old Porsche driving technique manual from the late 50s said that it takes driving 20,000 miles in a reasonably short time to really get to know how to drive a POrsche.
Of course, driving a POrsche in those days was much trickier than now, but still a good idea.

You miss arkansas highways? Man those roads suck. I remember driving to work over these bumpy *** roads. Major interstate I540. I could barely stay in my lane. Don't make me mention I40.
Although the roads over the mountains were kick ***. Hills and curves.
The roads in Fl are way better, just not the drivers.
Hay SeaCay I'm in New Tampa interested in helping me check belt tension?

oh, i'm definitely talking about the mountain roads... and the just "hilly" roads around where I grew up. I learned to drive on some roads that were smooth, banked properly, twisty and a thrill.
