Obviously what everyone sees as a "real" or "true" street car can vary greatly and is a personal preference.

Pump gas
3.23 gear with Trutrac LS
1800 stall (stock converter)
Full interior
235/70/14, 255/60/15
No headers – full exhaust
3rd gear by 18 mph
Will drive very nicely at 1000 to 1100 rpm in third gear at 20 mph
No part throttle kick down
Fairly smooth shifting fully auto tranny
Manual steering

Drive to the track 65 miles one way without a tool, get directly in the staging lane without opening the hood or trunk, and run 11.70s at 118+ mph. Personally I prefer a better power to weight ratio (more mph) than a 60 ft. On the street, from anything other than a dead stop, the higher power to weight car is faster.

I think I drive it a lot (when it is running), but it actually comes out to about 2000 mile per year. It actually sits a lot in June, July and August between being too busy, or too hot.

I really would not change anything. The only thing that I’m wishing were different: the electric fuel pump (you can hear it at an idle) and the car drones a bit under load in the 1800 to 2100 rpm range.

That is freaking AWESOME!!!!
How the H--L did you get such outstanding power at such a low RPM???
