Sends them home crying wondering how this big elephant of a car out handled them haha. Forgot all about that till I read the last line in the above quote.
U talking about a certain Johnny5? Well.. he's an exception to the "Impalas handle like elephants" rule... his handles like it's on rails... not to mention he's a great tuner.
