DTM Brian Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10phone2 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An LT1 with far too many exhaust pipes. And an rx7 in the other lane . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 The rest of us would be too busy clowning Anthony for missing third for the tenth straight time (Honda Foot is a serious epidemic) to notice how his car was 7 tenths faster just with you behind the wheel.
