Default A bit of sad news to report...

At lunch today, a white 2000-ish Z28 pulled up next to me at the stoplight, and as it happened we were both first in line. This seemed like a good opportunity for a consumer acceleration comparison, and the other driver thought so too. But, sadly, as I was burning my tires in second gear and he was coming up on me fast, his driveshaft decided it had seen enough of this cruel world, and is now in pieces on the road. Man, I feel bad about that!
