Default What makes Vettes so Great?

http://www.gm-cars.com/BSCCVideo.wmv


This Video is by Mr. Magoo and is just now being released from top secret clearance status, well it was released a couple weeks ago on the CF. It is now finally being posted on LS1tech <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

This is why you should hang with the N.E. Crew


Very big file but well worth it.

Those are the most grab-asstic vette owners I've ever seen!
That yellow L-98 is pretty damn impressive top end.I'm guessing it's not stock.

By "grab-***" I mean that most vette owners rarely mod their cars(besides basic stuff,usually appearance)let alone use it properly.Those fellas were really tearing it up in that Auto-X & drag race.The icing on the cake was that *****-out freeway blast.That kinda **** is usually reserved for us street punks in F-bodies. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

That run was at the first track rental, you guys were all there, I thought someone saw it <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> guess not <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> I didn't want to run again at the track cause I figured if you guys saw it you wouldn't come out and play anymore. I ran a couple 11.8's on that last Wednesday night but way to cold and slick to get a solid run in.

It should be really close this year <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" /> but there are no give mes
