Traffic and slow people suck. Hopefully the rest of the day will be better...

RCF GT-3 looks like it will “take care of” everyone else for me.

That’s a bummer. I always have a few spots where I can let the S3 sing on the way in.

THIS is why i didnt get one and got the much softer 3rd gen is350 F sport RWD. I knew fun with the ISF would be few and far between.

And i got to redline twice on the way in today, AND got the uphill twisties to myself so had a good 3rd gear 60mph pull through the empty business park!

I usually leave the ISF at home during the week and bring the LS400. When I do get to let it sing on the weekends or after work... glorious,

Even my fun back roads the last 2 days have been spent following a semi that sure as heck shouldn’t be there yesterday, and a truck carrying a bobcat today... Just nothing worked out for me.

That’s always the worst. I have two turns where I can usually give it the beans, but that can be quickly ruined by traffic. Before I moved, there was one really nice windy section of road that I took on my way in, the only downside was that it was right along where a bunch of gravel trucks would get loaded up, so if your timing was off, you could be stuck behind one of those guys. If not, you were rewarded with a bunch of fun curves.

Where are you at now? Brentwood has all that construction going on right now, you might have to swing further south get a decent route to work

I take Split Log to Wilson to get to Moores Lane. There is no construction but everyone still sucks at life.

LS would definitely be a better traffic car. On rainy days when i know there is 0 chance to have fun because of traffic i take the LX470. Something satisfying about just lumbering along. I imagine the LS experience is a similar mindset, just a lot more comfortable.

It also doesn’t eat premium gas, $$$ tires, and give me the gas light after only 13 gallons haha. I’ll get 21 gallons out of the LS.

I feel your pain man. Had the exact same issue in my M3 today. . . Though I did follow a Fezza 488 for a while. He seemed equally irritated.

The only time I’ve been stuck behind something and happy was when I came up on a Olds 88. You can see it a few posts back.
