      @goosenotmaverick1156 2 роки тому +2

      I live in Arkansas, and anything over 25mph over the speed limit here is considered reckless. And it is an arrestable offense at officer discression. Mostly it depends how fast you were going, if you stopped respectfully, and how you behave yourself on the stop. They'll let you go most of the time, just depends how much of a fool you make of yourself lol

Almost done pulling off the old one. I have a love hate realtionship with this beauty. 84k miles owned by one family before we picked it up. I hate working on it and worrying about the gf driving it. But god damn, I get why she loves it everytime Im behind the wheel. Puts a lot of modren sport cars to shame. I was blown away by the dash when we first got it. So high tech for its time and still holding up perfectly. All sensors work great. Still cant wait to flip it though and get her in something more practical.

    1:52 of course you can't hang the rear of a vette like a 458 without it getting away eventually because the engine weight is in the front not not the back helping it get more grip. C5 50/50front to rear the 459 is 42/58 front to rear. The extra weight in the rear help the 458 stay planted longer.

    As a inspector for state commercial vehicle enforcement, I whole heartedly agree that everybody should have the chance to experience a state police Tahoe. You get on the gas, they just squat and go! Crown Vics don't have a prayer of keeping up. The Tahoe actually corners better too.

      but what if some people enjoy these stories? Corvette owners can relate to Corvette owners or some people just like hearing about it. Don't be so negative.

      It's nice to have a compilation to listen to in your car as your are speeding trying to get your own story for Vinwiki.

    How does a video posted 9 min ago get 31 likes as if they watched a 2 hour video in 9 min? Thought watching the entire video before you can determine whether you like it or not mattered. Guess not. Soooo UA-cam groupies are real. I knew it.
