RE: Our new toy (Our midlife crisis!)

I put new tires on and took it for a road test tonight.

I made a big mistake buying this car. I was looking for a nice cruiser. Tonight I put my foot in it. This ain't no stock LT1. I've had 5 LT1's and NONE of them sounded or pulled like this one. So much for my wife taking the girls out for a leisurely summer cruise...

Or more so, so much for our 16 year old son having a sniff of a chance of getting the keys for this one!!! I have NEVER before had an LT1 even close to this powerful.

And sorry Dave, but I love the look of the 94 T/A 25th anniversary stripe package...

OK Carl as long as it is a thinly disgused race car you can put stripes on, eh?
