Top 10 Confessions about me and my car..
1. I bought my car in Apr 2007- and I have yet to do one single donut.
2. I very rarely lay a respectable track of rubber down either. Maybe two or three times ever.
3. I've never lit up the rear tires while applying the brake.
4. I do enjoy breaking the rear end lose around turns in town, (baby style) not massive-- look at me Duke's Of Hazard style. But enough to make me smile.
5. I've been to the 1/4 mile track twice- and only came home with 13.76 @ 105.x mph (horrible)
6. I've done very little street racing-- but what i have done - I have all wins but my very first embarrassing race that I posted about just a day or two after getting my car.
7. I did make several 1/8 mile passes at a locally sponsored event at the air port. With impressive wins including C5 auto vette, LS2 powered GOAT(auto), and of course I killed several Mustang GTs-
8. I have replaced the tires, but didn't even go burn any rubber before getting the new ones put on.
9. I haven't waxed my car yet (I know, I know shame on me).
10. I love T-Tops- but I would say during 70+ degree weather-I probably only take them out 50% of the time. Even though I refused to buy a hardtop version of the F-body.
Anyone else want to share a top 10 confession list?...

I think my video covered everything but the street racing.
Which I have done, but I don't do very often. Last time I did I got beat by a cammed C6Z06.

1. I've never done a donut because the wheelhop was so unbearable my car would rattle apart!
2. Never laid a 'patch' so to speak...not on pavement...wheelhop again..
3. Brakestands are do-able but only til about 10mph wheelspeed = ghey
4. Never loose around a corner cuz i'd be out of control
5. Never to a track...but this summer i'll go to an 1/8th mile just for the experience.
6. I've waxed my car once or twice since the paintjob one year ago.
7. New tires are on the new rims, but I leave the old tires on the stockers for winter storage.
8. I've never street raced. Ever.
9. I'm actually GLAD its a non-t-top car because I owned a Third-Gen T-Top car and I want a solid roof from now on!
10. I fart too much.

2002 Z28 A4 NBM- Sadly now demodded :(
1. I've had my car for 3 years. I know now how to do controlled 720's.
2. There's a strip of rubber all the way from my house to my work. The cops know it's me but they can't prove it.
3. I've worn out 10 pair of rear brake pads from power braking and smoking the tires.
4. There are large speed bumps in the road where I live to keep folks from speeding. I treat them like mimi launching ramps.
5. I go to the track every time it's open. Best I could squeeze out of the bitch was a 13.1 @ 107. Guess it's time to start modding cuz it won't go any faster.
6. As a youth I street raced every weekend. It's how I supported my drug habit.
7. I treed the shit out of an 05 Cobra a few weeks ago. My RT was .048. He car was much faster than mine but I was 1st to the light. No need for the driver mod here.
8. I've won a burn out contest by shredding the tires.
9. Well, I'm with you on this one. Instead, I pay folks to detail the car on a regular basis.
10. T-TOPS SUCK! Yes, my car has them and they don't even compare to the Z28 vert I used to have. I only take them off during long drives and pray it doesn't rain.

I bought my car in June 2005. I used to do donuts, but now I have new tires and a dying transmission.I don't think my car can do that.Me neither. My car cant do more than one thing at once anyway.That happens to me on accident when my transmission shifts while I'm turning.Never been, but I estimate high 17s.I've only street raced once, against another IROC, go figure. We were exactly the same, side by side, from 60 to 135.Never been I didn't want to risk it since the canvas was showing.My car is dirtier than a street hooker.I love T-tops. During the summer when I had a spot in the garage, I kept them off almost the whole summer except for when I had to drive in the rain.

6. My dash cover is hiding a crack so big a baby could fall through it
7. I've replaced the window motors already... and they are dead again.
