To be honest, I kinda enjoyed it. It brings back a lot of good memories of running Woodward and Gratiot in Detroit during the 60's. You would already be in cruise mode, so backing down to 25-30 mph and giving it a go would be a no brainer. It was a bit different back then, with the autos being a 2 or 3 speed and manuals being 3 or 4 speed. We wouldn't go for crazy fast speeds, just 75-80 mph. Normally you would have it figured out by then, if not shame on you.
