The first lap was greasy as expected, then the tires warmed. After that it was on. Power oversteer, slight push but manageable by right foot. You could hear the front tires squeal as I pushed their threshold. Right then left figure eights, hard acceleration then brake test, lock up, modulating as not to flat spot the tires. Rear brakes did not lock up with the front, however they are doing their job. Steering is great for the tight stuff, the variable ratio box allows you to drive with one hand on wheel and on on shifter, rarely using other hand. Did get into second, but ran out of room quickly. In the short time it gave more confidence as the tires and brakes got hotter. This baby is a handful, pipey like a two stroke, raw and bare bones ride. Probably not a nitpick driver car, but a kick in the ass to have a great time. Isn't that what its for? Nice car Dave, thanks for letting me be part of the evolution. Lets kick ass next week! Run whatcha brung!
Pretty much nails the spirit of our obsession IMO.

In response to a member making a friendly request for fellow members to go to a website and vote for his 69 Camaro which was up against a 53 Vette, our good old buddy Todd(Vegas69) responded with:

"I voted for the Vette. Sorry, just liked it better."

Any thread with Greg Weld in it probably has a famous quote as well.

In my limited time here I have read so many "jewels" or "pearls of wisdom" comments by numerous members that have simply made my day more enjoyable. I figured they are worthy of nomination and formal recognition.

This one may be a little R rated but it's my favorite, I would'nt piss in your mouth if your guts were on fire! I heard that from a little old lady bar tender in the local watering hole, no it's not lateral g related but it sure is funny.
