as the first tip.... for car control instead of using a cup of water like in initial d. use a can

and when you drive try not to let the can tip over... when you brake, accel.,turn, etc.

this make you a smoother driver... and girls love it too.

Girls usually get a kick out of my wilder driving (within reasonable limits). The ones that complain can always take the bus.

Actually, if you can find one, the better idea is the big bowl on the hood with a ball in it...

I took a traffic survival course that had those, pretty impressive once you get the hang of it.

I'll have to try this. It teaches you to predict whats going to happen, instead of react to what happens (which usually ends up effing you up pretty badly)

I love my 240sx with no cup holders. For some reason everytime go to lunch alone I foget I don't have something to hold my drink. This is after I order a large drink. And Being I'm rushing back to school to meet up with friends I'm hitting turns at a good pace shifting fast etc. Whole time watching the dirnk fluid almost spill into my lap. Don't know why I just don't drink some of it never think of it for some reason. Anywayz just the other day I hauled a** bigtime made it to the school without spilling anything eating fries and a double cheeseburger while shifting. It figures that once i get into the parking lot my phone rings in the passenger seat I reach over to get and guess what happens..My drink spills all over me. Don't matter how skillful you are, it's always little mistakes that you never think about that screw you up. I had a pair of sunglasses on my dash and saw how many times I could make it go back and forth until it fell off. 1st attempt i got it to go back and forth 5 times. Next day when trying it again I forgot to roll up the windows and hit one turn just a little too hard because i was rushing to work. They were Foakley's anywayz.

I'm only a danger when THEY interfere with my car's need to express itself.

Actually, anything that diverts your attention away from driving is bad. The first lesson in car control is eliminating the distractions. Florida240sx's provides a good example of everything you should NOT do. The water cup is a bad idea too.
