^yeah he seemed ok. i think his car is just bolt ons. wasn't very fast, i put her in 4th, didn't floor it, and shifted to 5th at like 4700 and he barely pulled me haha. there was too much traffic and we started at like a 65 roll. didn't wanna rear end some1 at like 100+
but it was a clean car though. think we should invite him out to the meet?

Yeah, that was me. It's not too fast yet, still mostly stock but I'm working on it. House payment just went up and kids/Wife are expensive so it's a slow process. I'm glad we got in some sort of run though, first action I've had since I bought the car. I'm going to try to come to the meet tomorrow. I came to the first one but it was too small and everybody seemed cliqued up so I bailed after about 5 minutes.

about the meet, it has gotten a lot better, we have many more regulars now. we do kinda have our cliques, but everybody is real cool so you just gotta go jump in there.

Yea that was me, thanks. I didn't know who it was at first. I don't street race anymore since I was thrown in the back of a cop car a few months back. 
I had my suspicions whenever you turned down Gretna. 
I went ahead to grab a bite and figured I would cruise back down that street to see if it was you and NSSANE.

True... true 
If you'd come help sometime it might actually get on the road this year 
I know how you feel man. I got busted last year for racing, got to sit in a cop car, then jail, then court... you got lucky

Really? What ultimately happened? I've been scared to race for a couple years now now that I know what they can do to you. Still, I do like to drive/accelerate fast sometimes, which when caught is much less severe than racing.

same here, not even the ricers try it. My co-workers say its cuz my **** looks stock but IMO its kinda hard to miss Wilwood brakes, triple pillar guages, all red suspension pieces, and the tell tale sound of a healthy stall converter. plus i tend to drive fast lol.

I was happy to pay it though cause I have a CDL for work and I would have been fucked without it.
