O.K., let's see.
1) Showing off your car. I think my car is beautiful--although the race
tires are throwing enough rocks up to be noticeable ) : My car is also
visually completely as Toyota made it (you have to take off the little
rubber boots to see that there are GAB's under there, we modified the
*stock* front swaybar, and the front camber & caster and rear toe are sort
of subtle), so I doubt too many folks would be impressed.
2) Brag about how fast it is. 130hp isn't too impressive on a dragstrip.
3) Pick up women. I don't think so.
4) Look at other cars. I can do *that* at an autocross.
Drat. I guess I won't be taking up drag racing after all ) :
