I could guess that.

Nissan makes a good car. Four door sports cars, they claim. My stepmom had an '89 Maxima and my brother had a '97. Both seemed brilliant. Having driven the '97 Maxima and a 2000 Accord V6, I'd take the Accord though.

You sound like you're proud of your reckless driving.

Street racing isn't tolerated here. If I were you I'd cease.

Learned to drive on this


The plates are currently in storage for restoration purposes, but..........I usually throw on my 6g's plates on it and drive it around the block biggrin.gif

****Knock on wood i didnt get caught yet*****

I don't normally drive fast, but when I do its on a curvy section of this island
Is that against the rules? haha my bad... It was only kinda street racing anyways. That towns police force is 4 people. We had half of dead end highway 35 to ourselves that night with an emergency vehicle parked at the end JIC (and for clocking) lol proud of my win homie, and the speed of my car not my particular driving =) this is BFE, Alabama. so it's either racing, mudding, high school football or setting stuff on fire on Friday nights. Obvious choice.

BUT enough about me, I'll stop posting... lol
