[They've slowed down to a leisurely pace.]
Somewhat. Back home, the roads aren't so good for high speed driving, and there are speed limits imposed for public safety.
It's a rare opportunity to be able to test a machine's limits. Don't see it much outside of motorcar racing events.

To test a machine's limits...
[Yes, he can understand that. Limited, and then...]
Free, to drive to the stars, if you'd like.

You're really quite passionate about this, aren't you?

Hm? Well... sort of.
[It's a bit too embarrassing to just come out and say that yes, this is his passion.]
I'm no mechanic, nor a collector of machines... but I am a bit of an enthusiast.

Hehe. Your enthusiasm is contagious.
[Alright, time to move! Irene, poor daemon, is just preening her feathers, still a bit rattled from the experience.]
Let's see...once again, right hand for gas, left hand for brake, red button for...stop, yes?

Emergency stop, yes. Use the brake if you can; it's easier on the engine.
[He settles into the rear seat, Cecile perching on his knee.]
