I agree on the 1-2 gear races. Always get paranoid about pedestrians and idiots cutting me off on coastal

also why i never run anyone really. twice all last trip. And I was scared on both. But like the RT challanger. He got the jump. and half a gear just isnt enough to make that up. next time I doubt i **** around at all.

We raced every chance we got, everything from each other, trucks, f-bodies, old school GTO's, ricers, anything that moved.

One of numerous burnouts...

I enjoyed seeing all the G8's in action. I also ran just about anything that wanted to. I am a little jealous of you guys that get to row gears the whole time. I had to sit in my leather/suede heated seat the whole time and took cat naps between lights. By the time first gear winds out, it was about time to let out of it.

I need to roll with a few more cars looking to play, my buddies in a blown 5.0 and a turbo wagon were the only reasons any car near me would play...guess my car is too quiet or something I'd literally have flag people down lol. Worst part about it was I only got 6/7 pulls in and I only had my camera on for two of them...I didn't mount them up until my friends got their cars on the street so I missed a little action.

Last spring no one bothered with my TBSS. Once the cutout plate came off (e-cutout was broke at the time), it got attention.

CTSVBiggie- Mind PM'ing me the contact to the person who owns the house you stayed in? We are considering staying there.

3 gears wow that would take me to 160mph lol. I did some 1st gear pulls but that's it. Need to find out why when I'm 3rd and floor it it goes 2 then 1st instead right to 1st.

My car is no fun down there lol. Spring this year sucked because of the traffic and fall sucked because the lack of cars. Hopefully well get a happy medium next spring.

That's the only thing I don't like about Spring is the traffic. But at night the traffic dies so it opens up the lanes for cruising
