Amen to that one! there's a guy in town with a Porsche 911 and he's always 
wearing a nice leather jacket, slacks, sunglasses - he's probably a stock 
market guy or something. anyway he was parked down town and talking to 
someone next to his car when i rolled by in my DeLorean - he looked, smiled 
and gave me the thumbs up!! of course i returned the favor. then about a 
minute later i pulled up next to a Z28 with blacked out lights and tinted 
windows and the guy kinda looked at me once and never looked back. when the 
light changed he held his head up high, slumped in his seat, rested his hand 
on top of the steering wheel and laid some rubber, like he had to prove his 
car. the best part about a D is everyone thinks it's really powerful but 
it's not, so you have an excuse NOT to race someone - you can go as slow as 
you want and people think it's just because you CAN go that slow!!!!!!
