I was gonna say.... a 350+whp EVO and a hybrid would look silly in that 6 bay garage of yours.

I LOVE the CTS-v idea. They had a fleet of them @ monticello. those cars are surprisingly capable in the right hands.

looks like that street tire thread Kenny started on the ax forums really picked up steam. how do you guys feel about a little friendly SM street tire EVO shootout in 2011? I would def be down to drive my car again on street tires for the season, or if someone is looking for a co-driver that would work too. Obviously I would chip in for expenses and stuff with a co-drive.

i don't know what i was thinking when considering a hybrid. if it's any redemption on my part i was only into the idea for about 3 hours.

i'll be shocked if he goes through with the cts-v once he sees the sticker price.....i'm assuming he knows what we're both talking about here. he'll still drive it like a ***** though. he was telling me today how fast those scion tc's are and how he got spanked by one in his 300c hemi when trying to prevent it from cutting him off in traffic............thus spawning the desire for 556bhp.....to spanked 167 bhp toyotas.

I'll be driving to work at the wee hrs in the morning tomorrow, silver car is all washed up and ready to go.

SM-T would be cool, no doubt. Almost everyone will be on *Specs, leveling the playing field even more.

I have mixed feelings about the idea quite honestly. I dont really care for it.
