The 34.5 mpg is probably from having the cruise set at 70 mph in 6th and not having to hit the brakes for over 3 hours and then not needing to hit the brakes again until Missouri.

I thought it was quite a bit more than that. Not sure, though. All I know is that when I asked him how many burnouts/launches he did to attain his epic 2" thick coating of molten rubber on the bumper behind each rear wheel, he said, “That’s not from launching, that’s from giving it a little gas on the highway on the ride home from the tranny shop.” :lol :lol :lol And lol at the “13’s all day” comment. I was just pissed I got to the track ~5 minutes after that run and all I saw of his car was that the 2" of rubber had returned and he didn’t put on painter’s tape like I kindly asked him to :idiots ;D And about the plate… Why does everyone care so much? If the owner thinks it’s funny, isn’t that all that should matter? And where did the whole “there’s some Honda’s out there that could whoop your ass, maing!!!” come from? It says he hates your vtec, not that he could smoke it. Talk about extrapolation… ---

i will attest that the SSmokinSS is quick from a highway roll, but without radials or slicks on the ass end it goes NOWHERE from a dig against most reasonably fast cars… joey off spray would be a damn good run for him in its current state from a dig at the valley. ---

I don’t like plates that talk about how “fast” your car is, I think it’s cocky… There’s always someone faster than you out there somewhere. I don’t even know how fast that SS is, wasn’t it in the low 13s or something? ---
