Well, they probably would, especially if you take off and get "out of control". But I saw maybe 4 or 5 tickets given out thursday and friday combined, and like 20 or 30 saturday. There are just toooo many cops out on saturday. They borrow them from springfield and all over. but last year, thursday and friday there wasn't any extra cops out those nights. Last year there was this crappy old v12 jaguar that did like a 2 minute burnout, no joke. he had tires that smoked good too, he backed up traffic cuz u couldnt see anything. no ticket, but then again, probably no cops around because that probably deserved one.

Yeah it's a Z28. Miles im not sure. It has a 427 LSX block with a F1 supercharger. full cage, tubbed, runs mid to low 8's....




HAHA Jk man it's just a roller Z28 I'm trading my S-10 for it. The car might end up with what I listed above.. but not for a while.

I hope I get to build it! The extra money from selling it would be nice but I want something to play with that will be fast. I'm getting sick of the slow SS.

I saw the evo driver the other day riding in an f-body. He was taking a pic of the back of my car after I got the spoiler on,so i'm sure the ****-talkin' is about to begin about me somewhere.

I bet he was in the HOSS. What color is your spoiler? what one is it?

Yea,it was the HOSS. I have the freedom design 1-piece spoiler and I painted it black,I don't like them in red on a red car. I have a few pics of it on myspace,kinda like the 2nd&3rd gen cars.
