We are trying to talk about FAST "Street Cars" like the ones listed above. Not SLOW "Race Cars" like the one you have. Please get back to the topic as this is already getting old.

Funny how you wanted the last post locked and shut down after you replied to my post which I feel actually made some good points, and how you say I have no idea what was being talked about. You picked something out of a point I was trying to make, and say it makes no sense. Some of your "qualifications" of a street car don't exactly match everyones either. Anyway.


Well you know what, I do know something about what I think a street car is. As the last post showed , there are alot of different "views " as to what a street car is. I think a fast Street car is like Jeff Mandreys old turbo mustang that drug you and your street vette down the road years ago.

EXACTLY! Two Street Cars going at it! Were you out there? Jeff's car was a very impressive turbo car for it's time and would probably whoop up on some of these street cars of today. Did you have a car back then? Just curious. BTW, I was the only car that would even attempt to race Jeff on the street.

As for your little "dragging me and my street vette" remark, all I can say is where were you?

LOL! I was right behind Nick and Jeff when they hit it on I-10. Jeff's GT spun the tires and got a little kicked out from a 80 mph roll.

Fast "Street Cars"? Talk to S.W. in Austin. He has more than a few.

If my memory serves me correctly, I was doing you a favor and using your family’s camera to get a shot of your Street car pulling the wheels... Not sure what point you where trying to make

I understand that these hits were on a 180 shot. The car had a 360 dry shot on it!
