Hmmm.. a take-home car.. I'm sure they wouldn't notice it if a little dry kit made it on the car for a while. Good way to get that transmission fixed

camarodave98, i particularly do not give a **** what anyone else expects of me and the choice my car has on my driving style. when i was young and dumb i drove SUVs and everything else like a racecar too....didn't matter. i drive a little different now, like sleek said, there's a time and a place. people need to take a hint when others don't want to race.

Texas TransAm....I'll race ya next time I'm in houston....just promise no tickets will be involved and trips downtown and my **** gettin impounded lol.

Wouldn't be a fair race...I wouldn't wanna humiliate you that way!

I've always wanted to set up a fake pursuit and film it w/ the dash cam. I’m just afraid of some other agency like TX DPS or Pasadena PD getting involved and really screwing things up. I can see the memo now..."Dear Chief, No one was more surprised than I, ......"

I get the same thing also, I drive down 360 from Grapevine to Mansfield everyday after work. It's usually Mustangs or little CRX's that want to mess around. The bad part is that we are stuck in the middle of rush hour traffic. WTF?!!!!
