My neighbor down the road is somewhat famous I guess..(Just don't ask me his name) in lots of magazines and such from what I hear. He had one of those hopped up WRX's that he raced and showed. Sold it about a month ago and now has a Skyline that he is hopping up. Supposed to be considerably faster than his WRX was.Try your hardest to be the kind of person your dog thinks you are.

I used have an all wheel drive turbo Talon, funnest car I ever owned, I could make my friends cry in it taking 100+ mph turns! I drove it sideways down the street one night in the Ft Worth stockyards and was pulled over by a cop. Underage drinking and everything, he just said "I've never seen anyone do that before" and let us go!

Ok, he's good and the WRX is fast. In may late 20's, when I had a "67, fat block Plymouth GTX, I got involved in that stuff to. Unlike him, I could steer it with the REAR tires. I will have to admit to a bit of oversteer with that car and more than one cone ended ended up under the front bumper, to be melted by dragging it around the rest of the course. In later years, a big block Roadrunner was the weapon of choice, with pretty much the same results. I won't go into the time the front heavy, sluggish handling Roadchicken tagged the timeing trailer. I believe I got a DNF on that one.:eek
Whilst I remain firmly seated in my old school ways of cubic inches and CFM to develope horsepower, I am amazed, and respect the performance level that is achieved by the "tuna cans" of today. Less just see if they stand the test of time. How many 300hp, 15k turning, Accords, WRX, Altimas are going to still be on the road in 20 years.
