dam now im really getting old i feel it!

im liking grand nationals that are black anymore now. I remember growing up it had to be black to be cool. Neal killed that dream when his old purple car ran 10's first run of the day one of 1st times @ fontana. And wtf is going on im starting to like this chrome shi*t too. DAM you LOU i hate that i like ur chrome trim haha jk buddy! Check out this darkgreen car, with chrome trim. All i can say is WOW! That is one clean ass TR hands down! I like how he went chrome trim but took it off the doors. And i like the brwn inter. It matches the darkgreen very well. And that small pin strip line off sets starring at a brwn inter. blending in the colors quite nicely I think. So i'd say its pretty dam sweet! I can defiitly see someone down south being quite happy to drive this around, just dont know how they do it in all that heat. So cal rules! Heat waves accross the USA and in southern california its overcast latly you gotta love it. Anyways here the car.

I too never considered a chrome trim Regal & always preferred the bad boy GN look. But know I'm having fun acting like an innocent old be speckled man in my regal. Till some unfortunate fish in a mustang or something like a Nissan 300 ZX decides to try me & gets bit. The answer to youth & enthusiasm is old age & deceit.

Be careful what you wish for. I have a way of making them come true I don't like street racing but I would be happy to oblige you at Irwindale.

thats it! Its offical, I'ma old moldy sauage just like the rest of you guys now. My youth has left me (aside from the surgeries, 2 more shoulder surgeries coming). Remember the like for this car.....Yea well i thought it was dark green but come to find out its dark blue!! WOW, fooled me good!

Maybe i can put some blame of the high quality of the pictures these days. Digi camras are extremly clean and clear. Whatever though, I STILL think this car looks like a tight sleep/cruzer to me. Be it green or be it blue, it still sick to me!

Anyone else with thoughts on this car?

Are you gonna be anywhere near Lagun Seca in July for the Moto GP races?

I'm trailering my new ZZR-1400 which we just got done fitting a Mr. Turbo on. Pushing 244bhp so says the dyno. Not bad for pump gas.

I'll race anything that has 4-wheels, or chase anything that has a skirt.
