i remember the 1st day i bought my camaro. ahh i was drivin it home down the I-10 from the guys house where i bought it. all of a sudden this gay lancer pulls up next to me and were doing about 65, i say why the hell not lets see what it can do. i floor it and leave him eating dust. we're pullin about 95+ and hes starting to gain on me. i get this weird feeling i should slow down and im about 5 miles from home. i slow down to about 70 and he flies by. no more then a minute later this cop flys by with his lights on, i keep drivin and sure enough theres that stupid lancer pulled over on the side of the road. i drive by laughin, and smiled the whole way home.

Love that ending! The first day I drove my Caaro home, I was scared shitless. I was 17 and had only driven a 4.3 V-6 S10 before that. I also had never driven a stick, test drive was fun hehe. I didn't get the nerve to open it up until a month later. ahhh the good ol days.

I knew my Z was cool then!

it must be a thing to race people on your way home from picking up a car.

TA - some "badass" in a gray 3rd gen (not a real nice one, but just kinda average) with his GF tries racing me from a roll. i beat him, but i was kinda scared to floor it

talon - some truck revs at a stoplight. i got a shitty launch cuz i had NO idea how to launch it and i let off at about 45 which we were side by side. guess it wasnt much of a race

stealth - my dad tries to race me on the highway with his 03 F150 i kept it in 5th and spooled up slow and hit maybe 85 from 65. i guess i won that one too .


none of them were really races... but i guess people just like to mess with you the first 15 miles in the new cars.
