Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

Oh, all hoods should open like that - and go to a full-vertical position. But, alas, most hoods (at least in the US) do not open like that. Even fewer go to a full vertical!

If I hadn't told you how it opens, I'd bet you like $5 that you couldn't get the hood open in 5 minutes. I used to stump people with that when I owned my first Viper. And, sure, you might piss off a Viper owner but you could at least disconnect something important so that they can't chase you down before you get away!

Though I drove as my MOS in the Marines, it was really the Viper that made me interested in performance driving. My first Viper was my mid-life-crisis car. I bought it after I was divorced. My kids decided to come live with me and so I sold my Viper 'cause you can't really carry a pair of kids in it. The dude I sold it to was buying it for his teenage son, so I assume that model ended up wrapped around a tree.

The first ones, with no real traction control - and no ABS - were absolutely brutal. This is just as brutal, but it feels easier to tame. It also dwarfs the power in the first ones. It's fucking insane.

You would have to be retarded or hate your son if you bought him a Viper when he was a teenager.

It is snowing. Not much, but it's snowing.

It's not snowing here, it's just cold

I didn't care. I needed to sell it ASAP. I even made a few dollars off the sale, as I'd paid off less than what I charged 'em. I recall being pretty happy about that - while being really sad that I no longer had a Viper.

But, it was the Viper that got me into learning how to drive performance cars properly. It all began there.

Don't forget that today is Friday.
