Yeah, mom's 06 GP (3.8 NA) needs her tranny fluid flushed at some point in the near future. The 3.8s are reliable as hell. Just wish GM would have puts a trans worth a damn in them.

I thought 2005 was the last year GM used the 3.8.

They dropped the GTP badge from the Grand Prixs and just made the GTs supercharged. Think they go til 08?? But still the 3.8. And yes my budsy's WS6 is an 02. He's calmed now. So not messing with him again lol. Check out my YouTube page 06CherryH3

Whooped an 01 wrx the week before. Not proud of that one. About a mile between lights and we raced a short one in between the lights. Next light turned red so we stopped next to each other again. He had already lit a cigarette 15 seconds afterwards. Think he was pretty upset with that one.

I have. I am assuming it was an auto with a bad driver, and it was a roll. Ran even from 15-70 when we both let off. I had two people in the car. Can't go faster because it was in town and a lot of people cruising.

I'm not sure if Pontiac was different, but I know in the Impala and Monte Carlo, 2005 was the last year they used the N/A 3.8 and the S/C 3.8. In 2006 they offered the 210HP 3.5 V6 and the 240HP 3.9 V6.

Like I said it's a cruise late at night and there is like 100 people out at a given time. Nobody really goes faster than that because there are police everywhere. Only place to really get a race unless you want to go to the track. Basically it's a 4 lane road with a light every half mile. Go up a couple miles, turn around, and go back the other way. It's just the way it is here. You can get 6-7 races a night though.

It's a cruise late at night. A hundred people probably come out a week. This means that there are generally more cars ahead of you to keep you from going too fast. I generally don't turn down a race because they are fun. I don't care if I lose. I don't have this fabricated pride I am trying to protect. Generally though it seems like it is the F-body drivers that don't want to mess around though

Yeah, as is the evidence in the video, Fbody drivers don't mess around...right.
You're 20? You can't buy alcohol yet, still a kid.

LOL! All this talk about being a more mature driver for having a car that is more practical, fuel efficient (and it's not, they're the same), bigger, and all, and you still race it. You talk the talk but can't walk the walk.

Honestly I don't drink. How else could I afford this car? I bought it at the age of 18 working for 7.75 an hour lol(have a better job now). Never missed a payment. This is the designated drivers car. Another reason why I have a four door.

We cruise around in the little town of Hickory North Cackalacky. Right near the race track. The variety here is crazy. Old muscle cars, F-bodies, imports, euros, Diesel and gas trucks, Corvettes, I have even seen a Superleggera driving around here. NSX too. I don't live there, drive a bit to go cruise, but its a blast. Pretty sure I am the only LS4. There is a similar year N/A V6 monte that drives around. I laugh at him. I don't know why you would drive a non SS monte.

Yeah we have some crazy cars around here for a small town. A twin turbo lotus Esprit, a Noble, mutilpe Ferraris, a couple lambos, a Lotus Exige(?), and numerous F bodies and stangs. But we only see the V6 mustangs and RX8s with underglows out to play -_- There's a Grand Prix GXP and another Impala SS. Bit ones a kid and the impala an older couple
