the little tiny electric car in my rear view? I think I scared it from getting to close to my big block 100 octane 2" dual exhaust musclecar. It stopped way way back behind me at the stop light

"Here we see a young Chevy Bolt, fresh from the factory, carefully and somewhat shyly traversing the asphalt wilderness of civilization. In front of him there is a big oldtimer, heavy in muscles and lacquer, he roared briefly in the novice's direction to let him know that he should keep his distance. 
Young Bolt prudently slows down so as not to provoke the older ruler of distances, not wanting to get within the range of the exhaust of a larger road predator."

thank you Shas! This is awesome!


all I did was give a "hi there" rev to a Corvette across the intersection. 

He revved back. Mine was louder than his, of course. Smokier too. Those valve guides are worn out and leak oil into the combustion chambers

  1. I'm surprised that the funny little EV didn't roll over and play dead!
