Annihilated a CTS-V talkin smack.... and now I got this guy hooked on his ellis. Guy on the 3rd floor was out smokin a cig talkin about his CTSv, I complemented him on his bad *** car. Then one of my coworkers chimed in that he should race my Camaro, because "its disgusting". The guy replies with this incredulous look and says "no way man, mine has the corvette motor!" 
I knew I had struck gold! So 2 hours ago we lined them up on the way to lunch, and I put a few buslengths on him. Of course I HAD to take him for a ride after, scared the crap out of him, and slapped some knowledge about the LSx'x on him. So now he is pumped as hell. Told him what I spent and he is acting like a kid in a candy store asking me what he should do first and on and on. 
Love initiating LSx newbs!

Orlando. It was an LS2 cts. Saw him this morning coming in and he asked me to send him an email with a list of things he should do to his car first, lol. The only thing that sucks is he knows really nothing, I am educating him on how a motor even works. He was catching on quick though. Wants to come by my place when I wrench on the car. When my lift finally gets assembled in my garage I was going to invite him over when I take my heads off to get them milled and put on the true duals to try and hit 500rwhp. That should get him a decent grasp of everything. He only lives a few blocks from me so I might have found a new car buddy.

Well i guess your right, but me, i always do research on a car before a buy one. I read everything i could find before i bought my 2005 Cobalt SS/SC.
