Yeah, my mind changes like the weather in DFW. After I sold my Shaner S3 and got to thinking about how much stock exhaust would irritate me not being able to hear it, I decided I'd just mod it further. Too bad I already sold my S3 though, I'm in the process of getting Mark to make me another.

Finally got the right order and was starting to leave when a kid in a civic started revving up behind me. So being the nice guy that I am I returned the favor and wrapped it up to about 5500 or so. Needless to say the civic turned and went the other way.

Next time don't waste your gas on the Civic and just give him a and keep it movin....

I get the drive through thing, and sometimes at work people tell me its loud. But what really annoys me is when some older individual walks up to me at a gas station or something and says "Nice car there, whaddya have a glasspack, or or is it the flowmaster." I have a huge urge to just reply in the worst hick accent that i have flowmasters or something.

I get an "I cant hear you" at the speaker, then "bad *** car" at the window, and then the people behind me are bitching cause of the smell of raw exhuast.

Back when my truck was a V6/5spd it had a little whine from the tranny. When pulling up to a drivethru, they would YELL for me to shut off the truck. I would push the clutch in and they would thank me

I get alot of looks with the LT1, but still don't have a cam that REALLY grabs attention.

i had some redneck come out of the sonic and ask me if my car was a dirt-track car. The worst is when they start telling you about their 1979 camaro with high performance carburetor and timing chain. that is the worst

Yeah thats true. heres some things I noticed

non car people: "your car sounds broken/fix your exhaust"
car people: "youre cam'n arent you?"

non car people: (when you take a sharp corner as slow as possible but tires are chirping) "stop driving so fast around a corner/stop trying to peel out"
car people: "you have a locker dont you?"

and im sure if you have a FI people some people would be like "fix that squeeky belt"

I get all of the above, but the most common is the "sir please pull up to the window to place your order"
