Tonya Jordan and Mike Formato certainly have the best of both worlds, whether it’s cruising around in the MGB with the top down or a day of 4 wheeling.
We bitch endlessly about every aspect of this game. That’s a perfectionist mentality. And when you get a few thousand obsessive perfectionists in one place–well, it does not add up to perfect.
