Just be careful in it. Street racing is not worth your life is all we are saying. The car can get away from you pretty quickly. If must drive fast, take it to the track like we do.

i remember saying back when i got my car that i would baby it and not race around town, well look at my car now, two broken rims, hole in the oil pan, bent lower control arm, and minor body damage, but i did learn one thing from all this, trying to pass two semis before my lane merged with their lane while its raining and driving on bald tires.......NEVER AGAIN!!!

Then again, since you have so much track experience, you should have been able to make an educated guess on what you'd run.

anybody know if you have to get a tune after puting a ls6 intake on? also i was looking at a pair of bolt on slp sub frame connectors but was wondering how hard they are to intsall. i heard there might be problems with the clearance with the loudmouth exhaust.

it is rather pointless to shake a fist at him and say "never ever ever ever race on the street", give me a break.

Dude don't BS yourself! I told my dad the exact same thing when he bought me my SS. You live up to what you say for a while, but after that you get comfortable with the car and one thing leads to another. And if its got any kind of power its like you got something to prove to the car next to you that revs their V6 up at you. Its a great car be carefull and enjoy it. Oh yeah and dont go anywhere in it where you dont want to be noticed because its gonna turn more heads than you can imagine! Have fun!

I have a wife and three kids depending on me for financial support. I can't afford to lose my license or make my wife a widow over a stupid street race.
