Fart cans on 4 cylinder Civics are today's version of Thrush mufflers on 16 second "muscle cars." Lowered cars = the air shocks of the 70s. Rubber band tires = the N50s that only fit thanks to said air shocks. Earning every penny of that moderator paycheck. DBAP "They don't think it be like it is, but it do." - Oscar Gamble

Frankly, if I never see another set of polished TT2s, poorly-built rat-rod, flame paint job, lifted 4x4, or ricer, I'd be OK with that. Blowers through the hoods & tunnel rams on street cars always seemed to me like Posing. Oh, and lemme add those goofy dummy kids you see at car shows... Now, get off my lawn, ya punks

I got stuck behind one of these idiots and he was going about 30 until a bump then it was down to 10mph. What is the scene of having a lowered car and have to drive 10 mph? Guess they never heard of air bags. Not to mention the angle of the wheels.

Custom consoles in old cars that are big and ugly. Customizing a dash on an old car and making it worse. Big stereos that ruin your hearing and shake the vehicle apart. Guys who mess up 68-70 Chargers with body mods thinking they are going to make them look better. Never works out. LS engines into every GM car out there. Everyone who has one thinks they have 500+ rear wheel horsepower even though they pulled it from a wrecked GM pickup and didn't do anything to it other than degreasing it. Most diesel truck exhaust mods. Not the most pleasant sounding engines to begin with so who really wants to hear more of it. Last edited by Neil; 01/02/23 12:19 PM.
