It is, you name shifting piece of , ahh why should I go there? If a half

second was so unimportant they would only show the trap time in one or two

decimal places instead of three.

`After all, what sense is it to pay $65,000 for a `66 big block that any

C5 can blow away`



If you think a half-second (or so) over a quarter mile is being `blown

away`...then okay !



1/2 second is about 75 feet. 5 car lengths seems like a pretty good

definition of blown away to me.



ME: IF all youre going to do is drag race with it, then i suppose half

a second is important ; assuming that most of the time will be spent on

the street with either car.... half a second is about the blink of an

eye ---- and to that i say , so what ; on a 100 yard run from

start....you wouldnt even be able to feel the difference. Guaranteed !

Hard to take isn`t it dave, something being "blown" without you being

involved.

Title: New 2010 Nissan Altima Leaked (details and photos)
Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2009 13:09:29 +0000
Author: Trance4you

The new images of the updated Nissan 2010 Altima was leaked to the web on the same day the company issued a recall for 26,398 Altimas and Maximas.

2010 Nissan Altima leaked img_1 | AutoWorld

The 2010 Altima receives the reworked front fascia, now it features a slightly more prominent upper grille and a lower intake that’s molded in body color plastic instead of black. Flanking that lower opening are new foglights that sit inside boomerang-shaped recesses. We can’t make out much of the car’s hind quarters, but it seems the tail lamps have grown a in size.

Read more (details and photos)!!

Engine options will expected carryover, meaning we can expect a 2.5-liter four cylinder with 175 hp and 180 lb-ft of torque as well as a 3.5-liter V6 with 270 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque.

In terms of technology, the Altima is probable to deal a 4.3-crawl HDD navigation approach (with iPod connectivity), xenon headlights, and a 9 GB audio usage.

Title: Saturn Sing-along
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2009 00:28:45 +0000
Author: typehype

Here’s the story / of Suzy’s Saturn / which was on the market ready to be sold

All the problems it was having  / annoyed it’s owner / most of all, that it was old

It’s a story / of a girl named Angela / who was forced to live in her parents’ home

They were three people / living all together / yet they were all alone

Till the one day when Angie met Miss Suzy / Then she knew the Saturn perfectly met her needs

That she wanted to park that car in her driveway  / About that time, the Saturn began to overheat
