Default V8 sweat

It’s getting somewhat tiresome getting beat by just about every import V6. Last night raced a Audi TT from a stop light, just up to the speed limit of 50 and he had me by a nose the whole time. I love my car seems fast, but those smaller engine imports do circles around it…..Oh well…

now you will have bigger fish to try to beat.....example the new Camaro 427 is no slacker. Just remember no matter what you drive, there will always be somebody faster!

Lighten your heavy *** car! ie Corbeau seats, smaller Odyssey battery, front sway bar delete, etc. You can beat them with a little fat trimming.
