Three common mistakes among Jap wanna-bees and there putt-putt machines: 1)
huge wing that is not tuned for any real 100MPH driving, 2) big rims-small
walls means fast, and 3) large exhaust with no back pressure that sounds
like a popcorn machine then real power...BAHAHHAHAHAHHAA
Well then you can add the fifty stickers to pretend you have a
mini-NASCAR...with the SUPER WING that is.
After beating up the 53rd Honda (Yes! I do keep count), I finally blew
second gear when power shifting but I had to laugh at the amount stickers,
super wing, racing MONOCO seats and don't forget the gauges. I could not
figure why I beat the idiot by ten car lengths and that includes the saloom
corners....but what the HEY MAN...you only live once.

Well gang,
driving home today I got a pretty good chuckle out of a Hispanic guy driving
a Mitsubishi Eclipse. His name must have been Hernandez, because it was in
huge 4" tall letters arched across his back window. Then came the huge
wing. It was so tall it might have been taken off a Plymouth Superbird.
The St. Louis arch also comes to mind...
Keeping in mind that this is a base model Eclipse, he's got "3000 GT" hand
painted on the rear bumper cover. Never mind that the 3000 is a totally
different car! And just to add a little "bling-bling" to his ride, he did
add some chrome hubcaps to his factory skinny 14" steel wheels. And yes, it
had the obligatory fart pipe pootin' out the back!
Man, was I envious! I'm thinking about going out and getting some repop
Hemi Charger emblems and a Dodge Daytona wing (at least the make would be
correct). Since it seems no matter what you drive, you can put some badges
and a huge wing that don't belong and make it cooler AND faster!
Later guys!
