Racing in 'THE TWILIGHT ZONE' comes to mind.
That is what it felt like.
Entering the THE KINK in 4th at 5,500 rpms (3.73 rear end...that's 107 mph if
you take the time to do the math) dark, DARK skies, windstorm on the left,
vertical lightning on the right, dirty laundry in the middle.
Talk about your "Pucker Points".
