Default Re: What the hell? a kill i guess

Reminds me of when a local kid with a loud, ugly 4 door Nova came by bragging about all of the money and parts he put into his engine. One day I met up with him at the local AutoZone and I called him out.
No, not with my SRT, my 1999 CHEVY Metro with what I call a big block conversion. I put a 1.6 from a Suzuki Sidekick in to replace the anemic 1.3 that came with the car.
We line up on 7th Street and hit it. Metro pulls away and never looks back. Stop. Ok let's do it again, just in case he missed a gear "or something". We hit it again with the same results. I'm just glad he didn't have his girl with him to witness what happened to his "hot" car. Bet he never relayed that story to anyone!

Just cuz it's loud doesn't mean it's fast!
