Yeah, my friend Michael is back from Wyo Tech and he saw the Cutlass and was wondering what was up with it, so I went over, started it up and showed off the bad *** 260 V8. After I cleaned the sawdust out of the air cleaner we went for a ride. Well, thats not totally true, it took me about 10 minutes to get the damn drivers side door to shut and stay shut!
It was low on gas so I went to the gas station.. the look on the guys face was priceless.
He was like, Uhh, where is your car? "Traded that thing off for this beast..straight up!"
So, we went up a mountain road here for some corner carving.. I must say.. my car doesnt hold a candle to the thing... the mismatched wheels and tires with less than 10% tread really shine in the twisties!
We got to a nice secluded gravel turn off and I started messing around and then I noticed something... a nice crest that looked like I could have a little fun with. MUST DOWNLOAD! 351kb Rated R for craziness and profanity..
After that I just started doing cookies in the gravel.. Ive got some ideas for the next episode.. keep your eyes peeled!
lol as bad as it sounds Joe..i loved that car..kinda sad to see it get beat too ****..but funny as hell at the same time..glad your having fun with it. damn thing gets awesome gas mileage huh?! and LMFAOOOOOOOOO@THOSE VIDS...man ive been cracking up for hours now
i thought i was watch in a dukes of hazzard rerun
that is the funniest thing i ever seen. lol but i could only see that and not the other videos that kinda reminds me when we went muddin in my 79 tbird . we stopped and id say at least 50 pounds of mud and crap fell outta the engine compartment. was a good time.

Thanks Jon! I'm pretty happy with it so far, I took it to the local 1/8th mile track and knocked down a best of 9.1@81.98mph with a lame 2.3 60' time.... the track needs to be resurfaced badly... I launch harder on the street! Next order of business is a HPP+ and a short throw, not to mention the SLP 1 3/4 headers and y-pipe I scored...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Ok, Im just kidding.
HPP+ is a Hypertech Power Programmer Plus, you can change all sorts of good stuff, top speed limiter (158mph on my car), rev limiter, alot of other stuff... Ive heard people getting about 10-15hp on the dyno going from stock settings to the "Hypertech Tuning" settings... we'll see what the ol' seat of the pants Dyno says. Honestly I mainly bought it up the rev limiter because as it it now it will kinda "tap" about 1k before the 5800 redline to let me know Im getting close, and its annoying because I can hear and SEE when I need to shift!
Expect more videos of the Cutlass 'O' Doooom this weekend.
Oh, and thanks for the compliment Roger... even though you drive a 3rdgen that means alot to me...
Originally posted by Gibby85 Joe.....Your welcome.....She IS a beautiful car.....I give credit where its due!! (you still need to get another 3rd gen though buddy!!)
Hehe, glad you have a sense of humor dude.
A 3rdgen is in my future for sure, right after I get a 2nd Gen DSM and a Baja Bug.

That's the first thing I thought of!
Joe's friend in a pleading tone of voice: "Please don't wreak, Joe"
Joe all confident: "I'm not gonna wreck"
Joe's friend laughs nervously.
Unknown voice as the speed rises: "Yeah! YEAH!!!"
That Z pic is spectacular Joe, you have taken a dime-o-dozen black Camaro and turned into something very unique!
