Default Virgins and Vettes

So, I have to know... Is it just me or does eveyone here feel like a lucky school boy when they sink into the curves of a vette? I will try to find ANY excuse to wake the girl up and take me somewhere. My lunches are spent driving around, I can eat later. Am I insane? I have even taken a pillow and blanket out and snoozed to some nice tunes. Do I need medical help? Or is it that this car was meant for a certain smart and wise individual? <-

I'm in love

<burp>

Vettes??? Haha...Im like that with my TA. Ever since I did the LS1 swap I find myself going out randomly just to sit in her and start her up. My favorite thing to do, especially in the spring is pop the tops out, recline the seat, and just take it in. My car (87 TA) is probably the most comfortable care Ive personally ever been in. Everytime I drive her it makes me feel alive.

In fact...I had my girlfriend do a test. I told her to find my pulse while we were sitting in the car getting ready to go. Then I fired it up, and started driving while she held my pulse. She swore that from the second I started it it jumped a few beats per minute. Then, after a few quick throttle squeezes she said it felt like I was running. haha. True story.

IM ADDICTED!!!

lol yeah welcome. I do that too...i LOVE my car. May be just a petty LT1 but i've ran with 2 stock LS1 vettes(1 auto, 1 m6) and surprised both of them with a 0-100 win From a roll i usually get pulled on the longer we go but from a dig with a good launch i got 'em. I've also gotten my *** kicked by them before too. I respect Vette's though and just love to run with them from time to time. Good times Yeah enjoy it, they are eye catchers. It's always fun to crack open the throttle of a V8 and let 'em rip. Also as one guy posted about the pulse my heart was racing and i could keep the smile off my face the night i bought my Z. I even had a lady in a silver Vette 'vert say nice car on my way back from buying it. I love it i'm a GM muscle/sport car nut to the bone. Gonna get a Camaro Nose emblem tatoo this year in Sturgis. The one with the red, white and blue stripes and bowtie. LOL can't wait~Cole~

Have you ever felt your pulse after a VERY close race, especially with another V8... For me my foot shakes uncontrollably for like 5 mins and i cant wipe this huge grin off my face... you could probably get my heart-rate from the pulsing of my foot I had to pull over once i was so excited, then the rest of the drive feels like pure Zen..... God i love my 6-speed.

You guys rock! I have had the shakes too and the permagrin to where my cheecks ache. I mean pu$$y is great but it is VERY different than controlling a machine through the curves. I don't smile like that after sex.

Bring on the addiction! And yes, I can still get it up! I beat up my wife with the thing regularly!
