GERMANY AUTOBAHN - 1999..

GERMANY' AUTOBAHN,1999. THE NEED FOR SPEED..240 k/m/....!!
 The year was 1999, and I was stationed overseas In Japan, and i took my family to Europe , to visit relatives and of course experience cool things. One of the most thrilling experiences was having the opportunity to drive the Famous Freeway or speed zone in the world.. The World famous Autobahn, to be honest I was a bit intimidated at first because I have driven fast in my life,, 120 , 130 mph and thought that was fast. But this time I drove in excess of 140 to 160 mph , well let me say this its a humbling experience when your driving at criminal , almost life threatening speeds , only to see BMW's , Mercedez Benz , or Audi's fly by you like your standing still. Exactly if I'm going 240 k/mh 160 mph  + , then they must be in the excess of 200 + mph.. Yikes,, I mean its amazing to see these high performance cars move in and of of lanes like its nothing. I was impressed but their precision driving and their break neck speeds.. But I must admit , because I was driving faster and longer than ever in my life, the road gets smaller, your vision gets more narrower and you feel every bump or lump in the road. I know your asking, " Why the hell would you drive such a high rate of speed in a foreign country in a foreign car and to be honest be so unfamiliar with these highway? Was it curiosity? Perhaps ? Was it ego,, Probably , or was it that Crazy , adventurous youthful ego maniacal feeling every man feels when he has chance to do something , he may never have a chance to do again. To be honest that minute or two or maybe longer driving at 160 + was indeed the most enthralling , exciting and daring thing I ever did or have done in my life. It was a experience I will never forget and the memories and story retelling sends goose bumps all and around my arms. I still get chills talking about it, because of the thrill of going the fastest I ever done or will ever do. I know I have a Muscle car and I have taken at high rates of speed, but nothing will compare to going on that faithful day in 1999, driving that fast for the first time along side other fast cars ,, is what made that day special. I felt even for a brief moment a race car driver, a Lemans 24 hour European Race Car driver. I was so immersed at the speed I was traveling , and impressed with myself,, even for a few moments, until those dog gone Germany drivers zooming by with their performance machine's, I mean , I felt like I was getting school or teased by these great European cars. But oh well. I enjoyed that afternoon driving the autobahn , and to this day is one of the most memorable day in my young life. In life I realize you get opportunities only so often and I took advantage of it.. I'm not saying I will never return to Europe an do it again, But I must say I will never forget the first time feeling. You all know those first time feelings right? The first time driving a car, the first kiss, the first fight .. the day of a cool relaxing ride, those memories will always stay true to my heart. I will never forget that speed I drove on that fun filled day in Germany 1999. I know I will probably one day top that 242 k/m + of speed and stay their at a longer time interval, but I will never feel that awesome feeling of driving on the autobahn at a great rate of speed for the first time. I would like to drive that freeway again , but in a Mercedes benz,,or SUPED UP AUDI.. ah,, what a day I will never forget and perhaps one day I will achieve those speeds on a Race track In California, Ontario or Fontana, or whatever right? You have certain opportunities in life you need to take advantage of and on that fine day in 1999, I did and because of that experience I did something alot of you probably would love to do if ever you go on a European vacation, oh by the way The German dude I met at a Bar was very kind and cool, and talked about how great America must be.. I said " oh yeah,, but I was so impressed with how humble and down to earth the German people were during my stay in Germany.. How I would love to make another trip to Germany and drive the Autobahn,, once again,.. I would really love to drive my Challenger on that open road to unlimited speed....
