Or put in straight cut gears. Make all the gears noisy as hell.

At the top of my list is a Saleen S7TT Competition. In black.

That I could kinda see, and would certainly make for one hell of a story.

...but his passenger was also shot.

Personally, I'll stick with my '65. I've got the build all planned out and I would rather do it all myself than have it suddenly be completed with no effort on my part.

After yelling "FUCK!" at the tops of my lungs, I calm down, get out to inspect the damage, then I check on the other driver (reverse order depending on seriousness). If mobile, move the car out of the way of traffic. Ask for insurance info, phone number, etc. Then, if it's serious, call the police. Actually, if it's…

Pretty much. It definitely looked like traction was their biggest issue, with all that spinning and feathering of the throttle (more like hammering, but whatever). Get that sorted with a wheelie bar and some Jr. Dragster slicks, and they should be golden.

"Alright, this '03 Focus has been giving us a spanking. We have to step up our game and beat him!"

Probably being charged for being an accessory to the crime. For instance, I'm sure it's illegal to tell someone to kill a person, so it should be illegal for a passenger to convince a driver to street race, especially when it ends up with damages or loss of life.

That's awesome! Now if he could get the grip to be more consistent, and maybe get a taller gear ratio, he could probably get into the 16s with ease.

You and quite a few others. Myself included. I would daily the shit out of it. I mean, 75 mpg? Hell yes!

If I may make an addition to this thread, I would like to say that movies don't always film in just one location. For instance, many "Seattle" films are filmed primarily in Vancouver, Washington, while the suburbs of such films might be filmed in, say, Tualatin, Oregon. Both are about half an hour apart. Both are also…

Yup. Unfortunately, #YOLO isn't exactly true with some avians. It's not so obvious that he loved owls, and some are saying that it wasn't owls that he loved. He may have brought this on himself, and we all wish him well in his future life decisions, as well as for awareness of inter-aviary love.

I don't see what owls have to do with this

True, but wood's second purpose in life is to catch on fire. In case you're wondering, wood's first purpose is for sexual references.

All I can think about are the possible flammability issues of a wood-based car. It would have to be doped with lots of fire retardant to keep the car from burning to the ground at the slightest provocation.

Twin turbo Ford GT. One got to 250+ mph at the Texas Mile. Not sure if they're street legal, but one of them has to be.

Agreed. Every once in a while, my (now ex-)gf would take a ride in my dad's truck which had a bench seat, and she'd cuddle up next to me in the center. Can't do that with a center console.

I lived on a decent sized property of 13 acres with pastures and such. Ended up having to move cars around every once in a while. "Hey Paul, could you move the van? We need to get the tractor out." So, that's how I learned the basics of vehicle operation. That, and driving the tractor around. I learned to drive manual…

Kinda expected as much, and I honestly do want to be surprised by it.
