How does it feel to ride in the back seat: Faster than you dreamed - but not so nasty!
At a red barn atop the hill, Ewy Rosqvist and Ursula Wirth had stopped their gray Mercedes 220SE by the roadside. We'll start here. Ewy fasten seatbelts, Ursula corrects the block with the directions, she made just before. They sit relaxed as two ladies on a shopping trip.
-Run! said Ursula.
The car rushes down the hill. As a mastiff as torn loose from its leash up there on the barn wall and discovered a hare down the meadow.
Ursula talks constantly:
- 50 meters weak right ... hundred meters straight ...
The car sucked down by the hollow, a shower of grit hitting up against the undercarriage, when we ruch through the first right-hand bend, straighten upp ... "a hundred feet straight" ... pushed out of as an explosion, out over the plain. For a few seconds we are thrown back in the seat, when fullgas release all horsepower free and G values.
- Long ... left ... right right right angle plus ...
Ursula turn down the right hand, the speed goes down at a sharp turn ...
- ... 300 feet straight ...
In a second ... it's full throttle again! The speedometer dancing as a seismograph for a bomb, plunging into 140, slipping in 90-80 for a sharp curve, sucks fixed around 110-120 in the small curves.
Ewy is reflective and accurate as a data machine after Ursula's orders. I have never seen two people so completely subordinate each other's special tasks, in an occupation in which the stake is - life.
