Re: WHY WHY WHY !!!!!!! (jparr)
I noticed that they never own the faster car themselves its always the old, "My Father's, brother's, uncle's cousin's, sister's former roommate has one faster that yours, but its in the shop. But if it had four wheels, and engine, and was running right now, it blow the doors off your vette."
Yea, yea.
I shrug it off cause its jealousy. I know my Corvette isn't the fastest one on the road, but it sure is one of the best looking. That's good enough for me :D

Re: WHY WHY WHY !!!!!!! (bizaro1234)
Ricers are the worst. I challenged one to race at the track. He actually showed up and raced me. When the race was over he just left. I guess he didn't like being beat by over 1. 8 seconds, and in front of all his friends that came down. I guess the additional 500 lbs. of spoilers doesn't add HP. :D

Jay you need to stop hanging out with Rocky and his friends.
This summer at a car show I had a guy look at my car and tell me that he had a car like that once. He said it was the fastest car he ever owned and then he told me it was a 1946 ford :rolleyes: Don't know if the old guy was serious or not but I think he was.

Re: WHY WHY WHY !!!!!!! (jparr)
Yeah lots of blowhards out there. :rolleyes:
The "nice" answer is: "yeah, you're probably right" with a devilish grin ;)
The not so nice answer is: "Yeah? Well I don't see anything faster" :auto:

Re: WHY WHY WHY !!!!!!! (GreyGhost)
:iagree: , except a buddy from work did beat me with his '03 Evo VIII. I knew his car was faster, but it was all fun. I don't mind too much, but I have some mods planned to help alleviate this issue. :steering:
