Default How do you kill a Shark?
Try to keep up with a Z06 in the twisties on a cold day. I'm surprised mine made it home.. severly hurt, but she's home recovering. After a few off/on sprints of the gas pedal and seriously working the wheel my somewhat new 327 (4500 miles) got really tired afterwords. so tired that is tried to tell me a few KNOCK KNOCK jokes :nonod:

Somethin went.. I'm not sure what it is. I'm just praying its nothing serious.

I'll keep C3 informed as to what happens :thumbs:

Sorry to hear that Corey but don't worry. It's nothing that an American Speed 383 Enforcer engine couldn't fix. :yesnod:
