    Lucky I got to the exit right when the down pour started and then got to be the only one doing the speed limit through puddles, lol. I really love thunder storms in a fast car. Speed is relative.

    Need Summer Tire suggestions...Please

    I have only seen one test by consumerreports.org and they were at the bottom and the Ziex and Neogen were at the top. I have one on my car because it was free with the wheels and the only good thing is they look good and are XL rated.

    Age old question power or handling?

    I have done both first on different cars and wish I had reversed the order and then realized I should've just saved until I could do both at once. For example when I had my Mustang I was so excited about the power gains I went for power first, not realizing I would create an understeering...

    AWD Dream Cars

    Everyone has thought about their cost no object dream car that would end all further dreaming of cars. I was just thinking about this today and I found it, with 1,005whp...

    What is the fastest/most fun car you have ever driven?

    I've actually explored the Fiero build a long time ago and it's just not worth it with the price of the Lotus Esprit and Ferrari 308 these days. I think the Esprit with the www.prototyperacing.com supercharged Honda 4 at 8k rpm would sound as sick as it looks. I've even seen the NSX and...

    What is the worst crash you've walked away from?

    Wow, a lot of really great reads, it's funny how detailed people will get when they feel strongly about something. Hope all the threads get this much effort and respect. Some of these posts really make you realize how easy it is to get ambushed on the road by an idiot and there are more of them...

    Say hi to svxsti!

    I have only put 9k miles on it since I bought it for $2200 in Eliot, ME. I now have over $20k in mods and restoration and still haven't painted it and needs another $2k in repairs I haven't got around to. The STi RA 5 speed with 4.44 diffs only has about 50k miles on it and I've even put in a...

    What is the fastest/most fun car you have ever driven?

    I hope you're not thinking of Fiero SHO, lol. It's only 220bhp. The Nissan Altima Coupe 3.5SE has 270bhp and can be tuned to the Z's 330bhp in a 3200 lb. car, no project needed, except bigger tires.

    What is the worst crash you've walked away from?

    I'm not asking about crashes involving drunk drivers or fatalities, just crashes from steping over the limit or some kind of failure on car or driver. My worst crash was when I was drifting an 88 Cougar XR7 5.0L. I had just put on a new set of Pirelli P500s with Mustang rims. I was drifting at...

    What is the fastest/most fun car you have ever driven?

    Let me guess, that was Maniac Spec B you were following? I also owned a 92 black SHO and I can even remember the speed in gears: 1/45 2/60 3/90 4/130 5/140 (165 w/ NOS). This is a true "gone in 60 seconds" story about a SHO that out ran the state police through Maine, New Hampshire, and...

    What is the fastest/most fun car you have ever driven?

    When I was on vacation in FL for my birthday I rented a Viper GTS and took it to a track and the drag strip. That's pretty much when I determined AWD is a must on public roads. The Viper had so much torque I could start off in 3rd gear and just leave it there around town. Full throttle...

    Devil in my brain...gaaaah! somebody PLEEZ hep me!

    I thought RWD was bad in the snow until I bought my first set of studless snow and ice QR Blizzaks, and then my 240SX made the snow feel like a dirt rally in the 70s, lol. I mean the improvement even over the sport snow tires I had was drastic. Fun times.
