Final season of Breaking Bad......that SUCKS. IMO, it is one of the best shows on tv right now.

Top Gear UK? I don't mind the US one, but the original is better.

I can deal with Tanner and Rutledge. The 3rd is the one I don't like much.

Also, the chemistry is lacking between them where it makes it funny and entertaining

There are so many good car shows on tv right now that my dvr is constantly recording something. I watch them when I get the time.

Well the new wheels and tires only shaved off 66# of rotating weight. Kind off disappointed. I was hoping for 100#

Opinions:

My buddy's bolt on z06 pulled me by a car and pulled a bolt on gt500 by a car.

Me and GT500 run side by side. I make 606whp not sure what gt500 makes but is in the 600s also.

Is the Z really bolt on or does the ****** have a sleeper cam in it?

Me and GT500 had previously pulled some cars on another bolt on z06 with almost identical setup. I think the only difference is the winning z06 has a fast intake...

Sounds about right for a well-driven bolt-on z

c6 or a c5? fwiw i know someone that had a bolt on c6z06 and he ran pretty damn fast so it wouldn't suprise me. It's also a much lighter car.

Depends a ton on what tire you're using. Slicks are a lot lighter than dr's or street radials.

Sounds right. A well driven bolt on Z is a consistent mid-high 10 second car.

Finally got my Black Car back together last Friday night, transmission has been out of it for 4 months.


Friend of mine got video when I cranked it up and afterwards made the comment that he thought his Vette was louder than my Fox.

To me, the vettes louder. It's a rare bird, Speedway white. If its mod red, its 1 of 148. I'd hate driving it with that exhaust. Mine's louder than I'd like, and it has a cruiser exhaust on it.

Nice to have a car that drives isn't it heater?
