MEGA POWER GAIN

I've never felt my car so powerful as it did today. I don't know what it is, but for some reason i have incredible power. Maybe it was just a clogged cat that shook loose or something. Or premium gasoline. But whatever it was it kicks *** . I did a burnout, not a brake-torque, from 0 mph and made my speedometer go up to 50 mph and i was moving at like 10 mph from lack of traction. I left a black streak at least 40-50 feet long. I was amazed at my power. And all during the ride home from school earlier I felt so powerful. I did a brake torque in front of this bastard who tailgated me and it was wet in that area. My tires were spinning at 70mph and i was going nowhere. I was in 3rd gear. That was friggin crazy. Whatever it is i like it
