the fast and stupid movies arent drag racing.i too hate them movies.some dumb kid watches them then goes out and gets in his rice burner and presto hes van desil. i still drag race on the street. on a country road with no driveways no houses nothing. both ends blocked.and nobody beside the road watching.i still do burnouts at stop lites and signs.i still lope my way around the parking lots.ive been pulled over by the law and just have them look at the car.ive been warned a bunch of times. but never caught doin anything wrong.(not since 98 anyway). but just the way i look gets me pulled over lol. i do not think racin on the street is very smart, but i can not help myself sometimes. its like ive gone back in time. the only way i can describe it is to say american graffitey.i quit going to the track when it cost more to go than my shop lite bill.but some day it will cost me everything of that im sure.

Just a strip car now. Had both but sold my '66 Nova to finance my 540 BBC and acouple other things. You can view both in my profile gallery pics. I sure miss the '66 at times though. It turned alot of heads.

i dont go out often, but i live on the east side of town and take it out of town to test the tires, ive gone 8.66 running way fat on a 275 shot
what is street legal? in my opinion running 93 octane gas, dot tires and decent exhaust oh also 3 inch cowl max.

Drove my blown alky ride up to the local car cruises 10 miles away many times. Took 20+ gallons of alky to get it there and back home.
Probably woulda took less, but ya gotta set it up fat for the surge if you're gonna drive it.
Used to love tail gaters. A/C units don't filter out alky fumes!!!
Nothing like being able to light up the meats at 55 MPH by rolling into the throttle.
Somewhere out there, I know there's video of me pulling the wheels in front of McDonalds...
