Default Trip to the beach.....

hello fellas,

just spent the weekend at the coast....Wilmington, NC.

I made some really good time coming from Raleigh.....

NO ONE WANTED TO RACE???? Ran into a couple stangs and camaros......

When we were cruising the strip, saw some pretty sweet rides....

Yellow Viper GTS (going the opposite way ), A red 360 Modena Spider....totally bad a$$ behind me at a stop light, and a silver Shelby Cobra w/ side pipes.....(the guy pullled a u-turn and I motioned to have him light them up.....The car totally screamed!!!!!!!! )


I am a total dumb a$$ for having the digital camera in the trunk?????

I promise I will do better the next time guys......

Oh, on the way back had her up to 145 mph w/ the top down before we ran out of room.......the vert is totally comfortable w/ the top down at triple digit speeds

How fast will a vert go w/ the top down? top up? Just have some minor bolt ons.....160 + I hope.....(had my 94 LT-1 six speed up to 161 and she was still pulling)

Have a great week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
