It's not set in stone so if somebody else is interested in doing it feel free but i will see what i can maybe do
Hell yeah! A poster would be sweet! But you have to use at least one pic of my car in the background

guilty of all but the mullet.
got two more.

-you look at everyone you pass on the road to make sure they look at your car when drive by them.

-you try every chance to back into a spot where more people than not will be affected by the sound of you exhaust the next time you start it.

i'll have to have my buddy help me with his photoshop to put pics in the background. I'll start a thread of pics people would like to see in the background. rk_2000~ your car would have to be there, as you started the thread would be cool. I'll be going out of town on business soon and will be gone a month and in my downtime i'll try working on it Should be cool. You guy's will have to be patient with me as i'm not sure how long it will take me but i don't imagine long i'll do them to order if possible or get a list of for sure's to buy first. i don't want to spend a whole bunch then not have many buy them. I'll see what i can do

Here's one: your blood pressure goes through the roof the second you see a car parked right next to yours (non fbod), and the only relief you get is after a thorough investigation of that side.

Awesome thread, here are a couple more:

-You can't hear the person next to you talking when you're accelerating

-You treat stop lights like the tree at the drag strip, watching the other directions light for when it turns yellow, then red

-You know where EVERY fbody in your neighborhood is

-You cut your arms on the cowl when swapping the intake manifold

-You break you're oil pressure sending unit when swapping the intake manifold

-You avoid puddles at all costs

-You know where EVERY manhole cover is and dodge them like doing slalom

-You don't have "ohh **** handles"

-You can put your car sideways at 25mph

-Your car has the "corvette engine"

-You watch for cops like your life depends on it

here is another few. when your not in your car like during the day at work you just can't wait for the ride home. or when you get to your car all you can do is smile. your drive to work is the best part of the day. you think normal cars suck. you get all excited when you see it sitting in the garage, or in the parking lot at work.

31. when you are coming to a dip in the road too fast, your stomach twists, and you involuntarily pick up your feet cuz you know the exhaust is about to scrape.

AHAHAHA! And I'm at STOCK RIDE HEIGHT too!

3-9, 18-20, 22-25, and 29-31 are all very true for me, even most of the ones people have added are true.

For a lot of these it is not just F-bodies though, I find I do them with my Camaro, our 69 Camaro and our 70 chevelle, lol.
