Whoops!
Well I just got my car back tonight and I must say-it feels like a whole new vehicle, I get back on post and my buddy says "hey i wanna go for a spin" so we get in an take off towards the back roads of North Fort-I turn onto this little street and unleash the fury all the way to the next stop sign. I think my buddy was about to **** a brick . We get back to my barracks an I open up the hood an we start chatting, all of a sudden the cops pull up an im just like "shhhiiiiiiiitt".
I knew i was in for it now-he gets out an asks for my license, registration an what not, asks me if i was doing a test drive. Well it does no good to lie so i was like "ya i got some work done" He starts telling me that a full bird colonel saw me go full throttle down that street an called me in. He went on about some Neg 2 crap an that i could get a ticket for reckless driving an blah blah blah, the usual. He then tells me if all my stuff checks out that he'll just give me a verbal warning. Wow, what a relief, he also tells me he's got an LS1 Camaro that he put a 396 BBC in so i guess he knows what its like to have a fast car. Man did I get lucky, cuz i bet the whole post heard me when i got on it, haha true duals rule!

haha, i wasnt really too upset about it, I was in the wrong an was willing to accept the consequences. Ya, I just can't get over how awesome it sounds, i can see now why true-duals are so popular. I have a feeling my gf is gonna hate riding in my car now cuz those mufflers are like RIGHT under the seats

I'm not exactly sure which mufflers are on there, I bought it used from a couple in Montana and they couldn't even remember. Whichever mufflers they are tho they sound sweet My girlfriend came over earlier tonight an I told her it's pretty loud. I started it up an she was like...."Well, its not so bad" then I was like, "Ya but thats just at idle" an I revved it up an she jumped a good foot in the air. Haha! I love it How do you guys deal with the gas smell? I don't mind it too much when I'm driving but it kinda makes my interior stink a little, think about 6 airfreshners from the rearview ought to do it?
