id think tank would be considerably larger than 17,6 ... should be 30/40 even 50 gallons to make it a good cruiser.

Haha very short indeed! Not my thang

I second that.

But I think that a Honda Civic with an extreme body kit, blue neon lights underneath and the Sharkwerks sticker on the doors would be a more appropriate punishment.

1) OK so here goes... Drove 2 GT-R's (was FORCED to by customers) when they came out. I had zero fun and felt about as home as I did on an Indian bed of nails.
2) Corvette Z06. Drove a C5 version and spun the tires. Drove a C6 version and spun the tires. Couldn't figure it out.
3) I kinda sorta had fun driving the new Mustang Shelby Laguna Seca thingy... It was crude but fun.
4) Right after I grow a mullet. No. And no way sorry!
