That Vette was bangin! We were over in Watkins Glenn for dinner, the cars that creep around that place are simply amazing. That ZL1 Camaro was amazing as well.

The great thing about the Corvette is that you actually might be able to afford a used one and afford to run it. Ferraris are almost never affordable and when they need service you have to sell a kidney.

ZL1 Camaros are amazing but borderline insane. You can now get the 1LE track package on the V6 (335hp) or turbo 4 (275hp and 50/50 weight balance) Camaros. It is such a bargain.

Funny you bring that up, the guy who owned it was a doctor.

A friend who would know informed me that just an oil change for a Ferrari is ~ $1500.00.

My biggest peeve.  A couple of times I've seen guys these these cars like they were afraid they were gonna bite them.  Once, a Lamborghini Countach and once, a Ferrari 612 -

What do you guys think of the Hellcat? I've driven a couple of them and my thoughts are they are totally sick!!

I have never driven one , but i heard its insane..still with the all the hp a  tesla S 100 beats it on the track..
I have driven a 3 yr old camaro SS that has been fitted with a blower and some crazy stuff..that was a hell of a ride..

700+ hp cars are just cool. Talk about planted in the seat.

The hell cat is king of muscle cars.  Looks cool, sounds cool and will blow the doors off of anything that is not electric.  I think I read where they are putting that engine in the Jeep Wrangler.  Now that would be bad ass!!

 on the track..

Anyone have track time??

I have very limited track time but it was awesome. I spent 2 days at Beaver Raceway in PA for STI training. It was incredible fun driving that car around a real track. The last day we could do hot laps by ourselves or have our pro driver take us for a ride. The majority of peeps chose to do hot laps by themselves, I chose to have Paul (he drove in the 24 hrs of Lemans) take me for a ride. I asked him to scare me. HOLY SHIT!!! He did. Everyone thinks they can drive but I promise you you can't drive like the pros. I truly was scared. At times I was literally pinned up against the pass side window. The biggest difference between me and the pro was how hard they go into the corner and how late and hard they brake. t was a thrill of a lifetime and that's in a stock STI. Can't even imagine a real car....

Not track time but I was in the car with a guy that showed me things I didn't thinks cars could handle.  They can go a lot faster around corners that we think.  I to have had my face mashed up against the passenger window, I wanted to get out and walk!!

Yep, you know what I'm talking about. Wheel men like that amaze me.

Stopped by the Ford dealership to test drive a Ranger...

So cool 💯

Browne..The Ranger is nice looking , but I image you'll hold on to the truck for many years..The only way to go is the Taco..Ford and Chevy can't hold a candle to Toyota when it comes to reliability..

You sure?

That’s uncanny. The whole time I was looking at trucks, I had a little worm in the back of my head saying I should get something little that is cheaper and gets better fuel economy and at the last second yesterday I bailed on the truck and went to test drive an Impreza. I’m picking it up today.
