Your opinion is that you love to "open her up" a bit on a course.  If your
opinion is about what everybody loves, your opinion is false.  I love to
pick my way through a technical course in a car whose dimensions are
second-nature to me.  (Some of you have seen what happens when I get into a
car whose dimensions are a mystery to me.)

My opinion is that for me, it's not.

>Probably more fun if you do have them
