I used to beat the **** out of my old 88 z28 when I was 16-17. Now I drive my Formula like an old man unless I am at the track. I just lost all desire to drive crazy and if I would lose my license I lose my job.

i run my car pretty hard. i try to avoid pot holes but when you live in ny its impossible to miss them pretty hard. But my car gets the best of every thing i can afford. i was and wax it every 2 weeks. out of all the cars i have had this is my favorite one and has a lot of sentimental value. i plan on doing a complete restoration on the car in another year or two.

158,xxx and i wont even let my dad rest a beer on the spoiler unless theres a towl under it... hell and im only 18. I guess i just know that if i beat my car and pull dukes of hazard stunts ill loose my baby(no homo) i mean i guess my car might mean more to me then some people in this forum(not most) but some, partly because its my first car and its an ls1.
Regardless you should want to take care of the items you hold close to you and appreciate the times when your putting buses on cars, not drifting a turn like were in Tokyo or something. To each there own lol

since i just got mine, and it has decent miles (57k) i dont screech around turns or anything, i open her up on the highway a bit but thats the extent of it.
now my 84 Z28..
i beat that thing to hell, she takes everything i give to her. i have Radial T/As on it and i have the tires screaming when coming out of a turn.
but with any vehicle, if i have new tires sitting on the porch then i'll take the car out and do burnouts like crazy

I baby mine most of the time, am **** about oil changes and maint. stuff but when I see another hot-rod that's when the kid gloves come off and really let her eat. 
Back in H.S. I had a buddy that had an old '52 Pontiac Hearse. His nickname was "Bone". He brush painted it orange and we called it the "bonemobile". We used to get drunk 
and drive through corn fields as fast as he could go. the corn was over 6ft tall and we couldn't see where we were going. 
I'm not sure how we made it to today. That's close to the general lee stuff but not with my 'camaro.

depends on if im in a hurry. If im late for something all hell brakes loose lol. i love making a 30 min drive in 15min.
When i take out the TA i usually have to get on it just a little bit but i take it on long drives too, just cruising. Really cant afford to get another ticket so i try to take it easy most of the time.
