    I'm driving as a passenger in the back seat of corolla and the driver, my aunt is so quick in turns, I am surprised how much traction the car has with those tiny tires. Incredible!

    I guess it has to do with weight of the vehicle that it's easy to hold maneuvers without losing grip, but still, three people in the car!

    Incredible!

    Fixed proof-reading. It's better now.

    I'll expound.

    You were "driving" as a "passenger"???

    in the back "swat" of a corolla??

    "driver aunt"???

    "Tiny tiger"???

    "easy to hold maneuvers without losing girl"???

    Much incomprehensible nonsense

    I enjoyed it. "Tiny tires" and the description of an "Evil Knievel" aunt. This is legendary status in my book.

    Damn right it is incredible! It is perfect!

    I wish I had seen the unedited OP. Trust Knabores to get the scoop.

    Probably could've worked the word "twat" into it for maximum flair.

    Sad that I missed the original, (and the inevitable @hagrid response) however the @KNABORES breakdown gave me the gist.
    I gotta ask OP @EmergencyMaximum :
    Drunk post? Stoned? or just letting the stream of consciousness rip? Either way, probably a semi-epic post. Previously. Now that it makes sense, it's just meh.
    Probably should have left it. :D

    And yeah, respect for Auntie racer, testing the limits of grip.

    Sorry gang, it's phone autocorrect and I was tumbling around with my seat belt fastened. It's not that she's a racer, but just sort of drives like that.

    I was complaining how new york drivers cut into your lane when their lane already ended and zebra line ended and its offroad and they still cut it and she sorta innocent shrug off and said: "I do it all the time". I lost my words and argument at the same time.
