Creative Writing Exercise: My Ideal Place
The ideal place for common people usually ranges from tropical vacation spots and outdoor activities, to stores and buildings. On the other hand, I do not fit this category of common people.

I could not think of a better place than to sit in the cockpit of one of Nissan’s line of super-cars the Skyline, preferably the rare NISMO 400R.

A rear spoiler is basically a wing attached to the rear of the car to keep the car’s down force at a maximum. This keeps the car from flying off the road since it only weighs about 1500 pounds.
