who do you trust?
Now im sure a lot of you guys are gonna say no one but...
a lot of my friends have been askin me to take my car for a spin and some of them i say no way i dont let anyone drive but me.
i let my dad drive it occasionally (former camaro owner) and i've only let one of my good friends drive it and only because i know how he drives, and he is a big jeep guy so he has respect for cars. i knew he wasnt gonna pull into a parking lot and start ripping dounts, he just cruised and opened it up on open roads(with me in shotgun of course). my car is slowstock junk but being 21 my friends are all broke and dont have money for cars so they think my car is insane, but i was just curious to who ls1.com lets drive there cars and who they dont

My wife whenever she wants. My step-son one time with me in the back seat. My brother may have driven it once as well. Other site members: Zapper2003 drove it and I offered the keys to TLS_Addict, however, he declined.

That was before the mods, Jeff. And I was being timid and comparing it to my LT1. You'll have to drive that car before I sell it. It'll scare you though it's that shitty.

2000 Grand Prix GTP- 2000 Trans Am WS6 M6
I will only let someone drive Nymph if they have driven an equally powerful car before. At the moment, I can rattle off a few...
- My Uncle Jeff (only other car person in my family and the only other person to drive as crazy as I do).
- Friend George who works at a speed shop.
- Friend Mike who owns a '98 SS and is crazy responsible.
- Anyone I've met at the Spazpaloozas (Spaz, 02Sweet, pajeff02, cammed_goat, Lscyal8r, 9t8z28, TempleU_WS6, Zapper2003, etc.)
My brothers and father love riding, but my mother and little sister will never get in my car again...something about a 0 to 150+mph pull
Not even my wife...she doesn't ask, and I don't offer...we both have our reasons.

Unfortunately my father due to no choice. Yesterday i checked on my chevy at his house. Two quarts low on oil and half out of water, with fluids all over the engine. Intake leak. Then he got mad when I told him not to drive it again until I fix it. He almost totals it somehow every time he's ever driven it with me. My mom is a damn good driver though

Navy Blue Metallic- 2000 T/A Firehawk M6
Lawless ripped off a sick burnout in my Hawk. taught her to drive stick on my Saturn. She improved quickly enough for me to trust her with the hawk. She even drove it on public roads in TN.... until she stalled on a hill
no worries though. it's tricky on hills with the monster stage 3 and tick MC anyway

My Monster still chatters on hills mostly. I can get going pretty smooth on level ground. 6 puck style i hear will almost always chatter a little. so since hills seem to be the only thing that REALLY upsets it... i'm pleased with the way it goes.
I also have the Spohn solid engine mounts and the poly trans mount.

04 Cobra 'vert - M6 mysti- 02 WS6 coupe - A4 red
I have a younger cousin that I'm fond of, I've let him drive both the Cobra (to impress his friends) and the WS6 (to impress his date)...
I have a long time friend who has owned Corvettes and Porsches, we've driven each other's cars over the years.
And another long time friend and former roommate, due to circumstances when I bought my first 98 TA I couldn't drive it, so he drove it home. Since then it's become custom for me to let him drive all my new cars.
And my girlfriend can drive the automatic WS6 but never the manual Cobra.
That's about it...

Red Tint Jewelcoat- 2008 Trailblazer SS
Don't normally really care who drives it.
Many have turned down the chance actually.

Both myself and Aetos love em. on the road i don't notice any additional vibration only at idle.... and honestly.... it's not a deal breaker at idle either. But i'm not cammed so i can't speak for a lopey idle.
It's also a neat trick when you can rev the engine with the hood open and not see the engine move even the slightest tiny bit

Liquid Red- 2008 Pontiac G8 GT
Back when I had my GTP only a few people actually drove it. Although it was only a 13.5 car, it was still alot more power that alot of my friends could handle. Nowadays, I have an 04 Maxima, and it really doesn't bother me who drives it, as long as they take care of it and don't beat on it.
