Lovely. The river picture is very cool. I forget who has the Hyundai N. What is it like?

There were two identical Hyundai Veloster N’s. One was a press car brought buy “OpposResidentLexusGuy” and the other was a literally purchased the day before in Virginia and driven to the Dragon by a friend of “AR4X” (the Cayman owner).
The Hyundai make amazing sounds. Seemed like it crackled and popped on every down shift.

Having any trouble adjusting back to normal life without curvy roads and being in race car mode every day? I recall my first trip to the Dragon, I got home and felt so damn off. I spent three days just driving my car like a madman and then had to go home and drive on straight roads in normal commuter traffic. It was so bizarre to feel that way and why I am so happy now to have fun roads every day. Even if I am not driving at 11/10ths, just taking it easy at 7/10ths puttering around, its still way better than boring flat and straight roads at any speed.

I live in southern Ohio so my roads are still twisty, but yes definitely. The roads have lost their allure. They are too rough, not twisty enough, and too easy, there are intersection, and driveways, and all manner of things that inhibit you from driving like a scalded banshee. I can’t stop thinking about it and to be honest because my motorcycle immediately broke after getting back I don’t even get to putter around back roads and enjoy a different aspect of being an enthusiast. It’s kinda put me in a mood. I basically come gone from work after spend a whole day bored out of my mind thinking about how fun it was, then I get home crash in the couch, eat supper, then go to bed, rinse repeat. Went to church last night (had been prepping the car for two weeks so no opportunity ) so it was nice to talk to people and do something else I enjoy to get my mind of of it.

You are describing it exactly as I remember! Like a mood or a funk that I just kind of couldnt shake for a week at least. Picking up my other hobbies helped and eventually just doing a crap ton of autocross to get my driving itch out of the way. I did also end up putting a shit ton of miles on my Miata just driving to remotely twisty roads on the other side of the state as well since I kept going places like every other weekend in the summer/fall.
