Its funnny how many pricks drive up and give you dirty looks wanting to race, and when you do and beat their ass then meet them at the next light, they wont even acknowledge your presence.
Who WILL acknowledge your presence is the cops. They love pulling over f-bodies. I screwed my insurance and had my licesnse suspended for a few months cuz of getting a lot of points. But it was fun tho.

oh man, i couldnt have said it better myself!
I know the feeling you mean when you beat someone, heh ... yes it is a fast car, but not many people realize HOW fast until they meet one at a light!
With the help of that car, i got 12 points on my license, lol .... your so right about the cops!!! My insurance is still fucked up, im paying near $12k for full coverage!!!!@!#
BTW did you ever have problems with tranny mounts?? As i said above, id blow through one every single week!! It was like a routine i had on sunday nights, id jack up the car, raise the tranny, pop out the old and in the new! I was buying box's of 12, LOL!!!!
They did have another option, some harder material or something that wouldnt wear down as fast ... but between that and the shift kit, when i bang second, it would throw me in the back seat! LOL!!!
