Hehehe
i know what u mean.
I had a oldskool v8 ute, like an old hq kingswood one with a 5.7l in it.
sounded nuts so i thought ok, he sat on my ass on m4 as i entered, so i gave it all the way to 5th till about 5500rpm he was still there.... was impressed but still a redneck (was near Penruff)
did sound nice for an 8, just didnt accellerate like mine
