Default The "Challenged" Challenger!

Not sure if this is a re-post, but it's pretty funny. Is "R" for "Race"?

Some people need to take a crash course before going to the track, it's really not that difficult!

And go Chevy for putting junky trannies in performance cars! When will they learn to put a 4L80E in V8 powered vehicles? That Vette sounded all sorts of bad.

Been there, done that.

I staged my back wheels and was wondering WTF the other guy was doing not pulling up. They finally just started my lights. I went down the track thinking, "That guy was so stupid they got tired of waiting and sent me solo."

When I got my time slip and realized that I'd picked up a 1/10, lost a MPH, and had an INSANE 60' it started to dawn on me what happened. I felt pretty damn stupid, ROFL.
