Watch Me Drive a Volkswagen Very Fast

One Saturday Volkswagen invited me to a parking lot by Ontario Place.

They asked which cars caught my eye, then, “okay, here. Now make it go as fast as possible around this awesome track we’ve built.” And then the angels sang.

Here’s footage from a rearview-mirror-mounted camera.

Casie cleverly filmed another round from the back seat.

I’d have stayed all day if I could.

Thanks for being great hosts, Kristi and Danie (who should be in this photo).

This is the new 2012 Beetle, and the only one in Canada.

Better, non!? Less hippie-ish, girly.

Look at the interiors, see the consistency? Mine’s a ’99, below.

Also, to talk photography for a sec, this may be one of my best framing jobs to date.

I’ll now conclude with…

… don’t VW and I match very well wink?!

This driving event was 3 weeks ago, and my car had just broke down, remember?

They emailed me shortly after, they felt my woes, how about an Eos for a week to help out?  Thank you very much yes please!

I’ve been flying around, morning drives, Grandma and errands, a road trip yesterday, and not showing up places sloppy from riding my bike.

I’ll leave you with this.

See the sign? I placed that in my parking spot when it was empty, for good luck. It worked.

Yellow arrows – that’s my parking job BOOM first time like a glooooove.
