Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask theBuddha, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

I am a nervous wreck expecting to die in a fiery crash every second with anybody I have rode with this past year or so. It's awful

Hmm... You should ride with me but not look out the window until after like 10 minutes. By watching what I do, while feeling what the car is doing, you'll learn that I have complete control of the car, both in predicting the outcome and ensuring the outcome is as intended.

Once you grasp that, it's safe to look up and just enjoy the ride.

I've put a whole lot of effort into learning how to drive. Like the guitar, I'm well practiced.

I don't know if I would be a nervous wreck with you driving or not. I think the people I have ridden with are just awful drivers

Your best bet is to do exactly as I said. Once you realize that, once you've seen the fluidity of motion and feel the control of the vehicle, you'll start to get more comfortable. Then you can start looking outside to see all the wonderful ways we're wasting gasoline and rubber!

I can leave it right on the edge - like we'll be going 60 mph down the road but we'll be sideways at the time - even though the car is moving in a straight line. The speedometer might say we're going 120 mph, but we're really only going half of that.

Then, I need the right car - as many modern cars have electric emergency brakes instead of a traditional hand brake - you should see what I can do when I can lock the rear tires up.
