I don't go there because a lot of people there have known each other all their lives and talk about personal things and leave you out. As far as having some cool cars there, they do, but a majority of the time its the same ppl and nothing new at CLUBMNgp..

I'm actually a little surprised more people don't use fwd for drag cars cuz most of your weight is sitting on top of your drive wheels equalling better traction off the line. Different story later on though lol

I love the whole package.
S/C stock, tank of an engine, 32 mpg, leather, sweet stereo, roomy, extremely comfortable, plenty of room for all my goods, decently easy to work on, DIC, HUD, what other car can you get all this stuff for less than $7k with 78k miles 2 years ago.
