every time DOT and I would go out.... EVERYTIME either we would or we'd meet someone and end up talking cars for hours. We were at Branding Iron one night and met this guy who came down to the valley once to race, he has a bullet Mustang and his buddy had a Nova, and they were both hanging with Cutlass... this was back in the day though

I got seven years with my ol' lady and she knows jack shit about cars other than the fact that she likes to drive the nice ones and likes it when I go fast. Mostly i think she likes the looks (and usually those long looks from other women that are scoping me and my ride out) that she gets from others as we roll by. She is as mechanically handicapped as they come and it doesn't bother me one bit. She does however have the patience to sit and wait while I chat up some person that wants to talk shop (customs etc...).
But I always and still say, "A hard woman is good to find."

there is a guy who did that to a Z34! the car screams. I used to have a Z34 with a 5 speed. it was a rare option in that car. I loved mine. It was a big heavy car that still pulled a 15.2 Stock. I liked it, it was fun to go burn ricers in it.

my lady is pretty interesting. she pretty much hates cars. drives a 2.5rs scoobaru. but every once in a while, she'll get stuck at a show or sitting in my truck or scout and somebody will come up and ask her something about it and she will somehow rattle off every mod in the truck, leaving their jaw on the ground.
she's especially good at doing that with the el camino. to the people at her office...like the guy with a hot 350 powered chevy truck...'it's a 383 stroker, edelbrock performer rpm heads and intake, 750 double pumper, 12 bolt with 3.73 strange gears, tom's forged axles, eaton posi...i don't care what you drive he'll kick your ass' heheheheheh...
so in general, i think no matter how much they hate the shit, it gets absorbed via osmosis to some extent.

Fucker pay attention, or are you too poor to pay anything, oh i see you wasted all your money on the black rims and the shitty bodykit. Who the fuck said my car ran on street tires? and it is a small block, a small block that will rape you in reverse gear with the A/C on just to go easy on you. and to me this sounds pretty funny.

wait till y'all see the video's of chad's car (sweetneon). it ain't no slouch. the best clip is the one of the tach creeping its way up to 4 grand then twisting the needle off at the pivot as it plummets toward 7 grand at the speed of light.
i'm impressed. race cams are cool.
