Well to be honest I think people that soup up Diesel trucks are lame. and I think black smoke is the most retarded thing ever. But my car is too slow to race anyone on the street so I just enjoy it and drive it and when I wanna race I go to the track.

come on you know the rules. this doesn't mean the post would stand. I've tried it many many times and always got beat up by one of the mods over it.

25th I'm glad to see you around as well even if it isn't often. I miss some of you guys it was good times back then.
so are there any other ol' timers around here or did most of them vanish as well?

Re: Just checking. Hows everybody doing these days?

Had to respond even though this post is way old. Seems to be a few lurkers still left around from the old days.

I haven't personally owned a thirdgen since 09... been through a lot of cars since then, had 2 kids, bought a house, and about to sell it to buy a bigger one.

Current car is a 97 Buick Regal GS that with only the air intake removed ran a 14.1 at 96mph on a 2.0 60ft. Car is a serious sleeper. It may look ugly and non-threatening, but will give even a lightly modded 350 thirdgen a run for its money.

With the growing family, I'm all about fast 4 door cars now. I put a 3" downpipe on the Regal, and now that the DA is dropping like a rock, 13s should be possible.
