Well today I had the day off, and I randomly decided to work on the protege and get her back up and running again. I put the head back on, and replaced a few gaskets, sensors, and other odds and ends. Anyhow, after I was done I felt the need to go try and see if I could get a few short runs in. Well there is this high end exotic import sales lot a block away from my house, and as I was driving by I saw a few cool cars leaving the lot. One was a copper colored Viper Rt/10, a Porsche 996 turbo, and a Lotus Elise. I followed them down the main road for a bit, and got up next to the Viper who was in the lead. I gave him the thumbs up a few times and finally we got next to a stop light. I yelled over and asked the guy to run me for a short stint so I could see it. He laughed a bit and said ok. So we got the light, I launched, The viper just left normal. I got like 3 cars on him, and all of a sudden I hear the BRAAAAAAAAAAAAA, screech, BRAAAAAAAAA, and he goes flying past me. ****ing awesome. As he past me his rears broke loose and he got a bit sideways. That was the first time Ive seen a viper take off and it was cool. Impressive if you ask me~~
Ohh...and the protege is running great and I can't wait for the new motor to go in (someday)!!
