Have you ever gotten on throttle with mom in the car?

I'd laugh my *** off if i handed the keys to my dad or mom and THEY got a ticket. good stuff
I let my mom drive it once. She barely gave it anything and she was like, "wow!" I think it's a little too fast for her. She's driven slow civics for as long as I can remember.
This other time we went to town to pick up her Rx for glasses. I had driven civil the whole way there, and on the way back as well. Then this older Integra decided to try and show off by flying by me at a nice clip. I let him go for a few seconds, and then was like "what the hell?" I floored it and caught up rather easily to say the least. I hit about 110, and my mom didn't freak out at all. After that she told me she had never gone that fast before. That was really funny, surprising to say the least.
And of course when I go to leave from visiting I get the whole, "be careful" thing. And then the last time I talked to her on the phone she was asking me how she could make her car faster.

My mom just tells me to slow down and watch out for cops when I floor it. I don't think she's really impressed with the speed. I thought I'd freak her out but still didn't manage to do it yet. Maybe on a cold night I can....

Few days after getting my Evo I took out my mom for a little spin. Car wasnt broken in yet so I kept it to 5k. When I got on it all she could do was grab onto the door and center console, the whole time saying, "How can they do this, how can this car be doing this." Then I took a nice 90deg wide right turn at about 45 and Ive never heard her scream louder. Funny stuff
My mom drove my car the other weekend when I was back home visiting, when she got back from driving it, she said nobody had any business having a car that fast.....She said it scared her when she gave it gas and it took off of on her, plus she said the steering is to twitchy...
she just doesnt understand performance cars.....

lol...this is a funny thread. I took my parents for a quick spin a year ago when i got my car back from the shop. I drove my car below 4.5K most of the time to show them how "normal" it could be. Then I decided to show some "muscle" and whipped up 350 something horses and my mom just smiled and was amazed how fast a car could get. My dad was mad at me for driving so reckless 
Of course after that I always get the be careful, dont speed, cops out, etc. lecture everytime I take the car out the garage lol

lol i took my mom for a ride the day i got it. turned and looked at my brother and i said "should i" and he laughed and said yes. Ripped through 2nd, to screams and when i got off it, her hand smacking my head, telling me if i ever did that again she'd disown me lol
