I woke before dawn on Sunday and was feeling restless for the quintessential American road-trip. I headed off to Lake Tahoe and made it back to San Jose before dark. The only rule is that you are not allowed to get out of the car to take photos, or video, so it presents some additional challenges.

In India, it could take you several days to cover 500 miles. Here, the exercise of extreme acceleration and tight cornering on a well paved open road is relatively safe and unbearably enjoyable. In 10 hours of driving, only 20 minutes were spent in a traffic jam. It feels good to have horsepower under your foot, wind in your hair, great music blaring on the radio, and not a care in the world.
