A walk down CR memory lane.

Recommended Posts

I just got home from going for a drive tonight. I can not believe how warm it is out side. If this was 2001 I know where a number of us would have been tonight. We would have been hanging out in a parking lot off of Route 40 in between Reynoldsburg and Pataskala. Nissan 300Z's, LT1 and LS1 F bodies, Foxbody Mustangs, and a few rotaries would be out having some fun before the term "roll racing" came to be.

 

Long story short. If I could go back in time to December of 2001, I know where I would be. I would be in the seat of a green LT1 camaro powershifting 5th gear just past 1320 feet. :)

Life priorities change and there are not as many decent entry level paying jobs that there once were for younger folks to blow money on.

 

Is it just me or were the early to mid 2000's year way better then what I thought at the time?

An LT1 with far too many exhaust pipes.

And an rx7 in the other lane .
