School is hectic, and sleep is in demand but short supply...Hope all has been well lately.
I just came back from a month with my girlfriends family in mexico city, and I had blazing good time test driving some vehicles. If you guys get the chance you have to get behind a Shelby GT500 Mustang. What a killer drive, the clutch is huge and you can feel it....The body is solid, roll/sway bars. A bit heavy for my taste, but still fun..
Another good ride I tested was a Ford Focus ST (european version of the SVT but Tubo instead of NA) (same engine as Volvo C30)...Light, Nimble, and fast.....
However the C30 is going to be smashing hit once some new trims are introduced next year (lips are sealed).....This car can run rally in fwd.
Jaguar XKR ....what can I say....looks, style, HP/Torque and a light body.....was even more fun then the Shelby but just didn't have the cool factor...

Neither would I, I spent the entire time with my girl and her family. I could talk about the drinking and enjoyment of the Copa America and FIFA under 20 World Cup (talk about intense, streets are like LA for driving, during the games - -- -- empty)...
Otherwise it was a food fest with: tequila, congac (X/Os), Victoria/Bohemia/NegroModelo/and ... various forms of inebriation..Of course it ruins me to eat Americanized Mexican food ....I pretty much just order tacos al carbon and that is about it now......Luckily there is a taqueria gourmet down the street from us =D

Sounds like a great time! I was hoping to make it down to Mexico City this year for World of Concrete...Doesn't look like it's going to happen. To much going on.
Oh well, maybe next year.
Ahhhhhhh...
