I'm sure you've all taken the Groat Road test.
If you live in edmonton, and drive a car that handles like the P5, I'm sure you've taken it up & down Groat Road once or twice (if you haven't, try it late one night). Well, I just drove home from work (it's about 11PM) and I was "pushing" it a little (not too fast, but fast enough), when some guy in a truck attempted to make a move along the outside, so I punched it. I was absolutely amazed at how well the car stuck to the road. I've "tested" my car a couple of times since I bought it, but not like this. I was going approx. 80 up Groat and it felt like I could have easily gone faster. I've said it once and I'll say it again....
I LOVE MY CAR!!!!

There must have been no traffic and you must have been cutting some corners...what a blast!!!! I was forced to stay in the one lane so it was tough.

If there's room, I love to take the line down Groat. Before this car I had a '80 Ford Fairmont, so it wasn't all that exciting.
Know of any other good roads like that around here?
