I bet that was a pretty good ass puckering moment! I think you handled onstar just fine All things considered.

At 145, I could feel my front starting to lift.

Don't worry about the "rude" label from the snowflakes and trolls. You were direct and polite, probably more polite than the vast majority of the population would have been in that situation.

Hell, they used to say Big Daddy Don Garlits was rude, well they did not exactly use the word rude, and he was the greatest drag racer of his time.

Thank for posting that. It's always nice to see physical proof that something works.

I am very lucky to have a two+ mile long, straight, flat stretch of pavement in the desert a few miles from me that has ZERO traffic. It's a service road for the solar farm just south of Henderson, Nevada.

It's so safe and easy to drive on that I let my teen granddaughter get the SS up to 104 before asking her to back off. I've had the car up to 135 on that stretch with plenty of pedal and road left. It's my daily driver so I decided to not take it to the limit.
