One other quickie to add. In college one weekend I went to spend the weekend at a friend's house. I had just put 3.55's, new clutch, and cut-outs on so I was feeling pretty good about my car. Driving down the 4 lane with my friend and his girlfriend, an S-10 pickup pulls up along side and wants to race. Unfortunatly in a strange town I didn't know any vehicles there. I dropped down to 2nd only to see his tailgate that said "Bad 327" and a narrowed rear end and watched him pull about 5 car lengths on me before even shifting to 3rd. The guys girlfriend said: "I thought you said this car was fast".
