Nope. But I robbed it from a dealer
Ooohh what it be? Is it that DA?Nope. But I robbed it from a dealer
Model S for the weekend
Please be a Gsr
My happy ass is mobbing a corvette all weekend. That s**t has everything a Honda doesn't. I'm halfway in love
But its still a corvette 
Finally a day off!
Two racks going, one Memphis style dry rub and another Kentucky mutton mop sauce style. Then doing some sweet chili lime wings later.
Went and ripped on the old DA, moves okay for a b20 but lacks the kick of my SRTs. Have to keep telling myself its just a daily, its JUST a daily.

What's wrong with a Vette? I'd take a C5/C6 Z06 if someone handed over the keys, let alone a C6-ZR1.
Dad's been seeing the new C7 testing down in SoFl every Tuesday now as well

the body is f**kED. There's a dent in the quarter panel on the other side. Bad paint job. But I walked out with it for 1600 after licensing and taxes. So I can't complain lethal6

A few reasons.Why not ride anymore?
1) I have been riding street for 16 years and have lost my love for dealing with traffic and idiots in cars not paying attention or don't care for motorcycles. It's crazy dangerous out there.
2) Most of the guys that I used to ride with don't ride anymore or have jumped over to harleys. It is very weird to cruise around on a sportbike with a bunch of harley guys. I don't have the cash nor the drive to buy a harley to be "one of the guys again".
3) After being on the track a few times and being able to do things to a sportbike that it was actually built for I have lost the joy of riding in the street at a "tamed" level. Once you drag a knee it is hard to go without it and you can't really touch down in that way while in traffic.
4) Tired of how uncomfortable it is to ride something with this aggressive of a riding position in normal driving circumstances. These are built to lean, go fast, hug the corners, lay low, and blast off. Can't really do that in the city. Legally and safely anyway.
If I start riding street again in the future, I don't think it will be a sport bike again. I am thinking more towards cafe racer, rat bike, or "street fighter" type. More of a bike to blast around in once in a while but not something that needs to be ridden at higher RPMs constantly. These 600's don't make their true power until you are up in top 3/4 of the rev range and they redline at 15k. The power band starts something like 9k and that is screaming to be staying up that high on the street.
Lol. Usually true, but my VW is (knock on wood) in great shape. The VR6 motors of this generation don't have the bullshit that the 1.8's do. No timing belt, no pcv mess, no pump failures. Clutch, master, and slave are new. Trans was rebuilt after the previous owner's wife driving drunk and trying to jam it into reverse while trying to shift into 3rd. Don't ask me how she even got that to work because this has a b&m in it and you have to pull the lever up to get it to go over to reverse. They rebuilt the trans while they were in there fixing reverse.
Everything of major concern was replaced around 100k (it only has 103k on it now) by my buddy that owned it before me as a preemptive thing. He is one of those guys that replaces stuff before they fail so he doesn't get stranded when they do. One of the biggest reasons I bought this car from him.
Today....going to get some gas for the mower and mow the lawn finally. Then sit on my ass and enjoy my only day off this week.
Not too shabby. Do you have any plans for this or just DD til you sell it or the day it dies?Thank you
As long as engine and trans are strong. You said it was auto right?Thank you

Let's see...
- Sold a TV
- Kicked the rear end out a few times with these wet roads
- Deleted about 1,000 items off my external hard drive
- Grabbed some Sumo Sabi because Chic-Fil-A closed by the time I was hungry enough to get out
- Downloaded 14 movies and 3 or 4 TV shows
- And watched "Honda: Hands"
