A couple of times now I've arrived at race tracks so late (early?) that it wasn't worth going to find the hotel so I sacked out in the car.

I just had to this past weekend. Being drunk and trying to get some good rest is not a good combo, adding your deuce in to the equation and its just bad. Still doable tho.

I had a hard enough time sleeping in my firebird when I had it, plus I usually keep camping gear of some sort or another in my car, and I haven't ever driven it far enough to have a reason to sleep in it

I had no cash and was way low on gas. One night i was coming home from a friends house and ran out of gas in the boonies. My cell phone wouldn't get service for another 8-10 miles down the road. So, i walked for about 4 and a half hours until my phone finally got a bar of service and called my friend to bring me a can of gas. All they had was a 2 liter pop bottle of gas. Those 2 liters JUST BARELY got me to the gas station. On the way there the car would sputter and die, so i would have to wait until the gas settled into where the pump was and then start her up again and go a few more feet until i had to turn left. If i turned right it was all good, but any lefties and she died. So i'd coast the corner, wait a few minutes, and then try to start her again.

I finally got to the gas station and of course it was closed. I tried to used my bank card, but it wouldn't work. So i had to sleep in my car from around 1 in the morning until 7AM.

Around 3 am a cop knocked on my window. I opened up and said "hi" very politely. He asked if i had been drinking and thank God i hadn't. I recieved a field sobriety test at the gas station, then told him my story and he left me alone. I ended up sleeping till almost 8AM, filled up, used my card insde and it worked. ANd went home. I was so pissed that the pump card reader didnt work. I tried my card in all 8 pumps at the gas station and none of them worked, but of course the one inside worked JUST DANDY!

hahaha, thats my sleeping in the 2 story.

Ive taken short naps, but nothing too crazy that I would want to repeat. The car is too cramped to spawl out and the seats dont recline to a comfortable position.

haven't even driven my 2 yet, and not to be rude, but the 2 by comparison to my miata is a "big" car, which is why I like it. To get to the point, I have not slept in my miata either, but let me tell ya, anything's possible...even with the top up. I'm 5'10 and she's 5'7...it works.
