I suppose you have to pay extra for the "full package inspection experience" since it involves un- and re- wrapping of the package as part of a multisensory inspection

We should do scrapin the coast or cruising the coast one year.
It stretches for quite a few cities. And its right on the beach.

tail of the dragon looks sick.

How do you drive it in a fun way with all the grandmas and minivans in the way?

Isn't the tail of the dragon a two lane road? I'm sure there are passing zones...

That's quite a good way to get arrested... Good idea, we will race, then I will hide and watch the cops chase you...

On a differing note, I was warned about reports of my car going across the local police scanner... Now, I don't know whether or not to believe the source, but WTF people! I drove faster in the Taurus, but since my new car is loud, it attracts more attention?! Seriously though, it's pretty messed up... I can't help my work schedule(I pass through at either 9a/11p or 9p/11a), and the car is loud-ish at 50-60mph, especially when accelerating out of corners(the whine is pretty loud, even in 5th at 2000 RPM), and I try my best to limit noise/speed near residential areas...

keep the inside clean as a whistle--even the glove box. No trash, no nothing. (Profiling)
no tire chirping, no squealing in turns (reckless driving)
no jack rabbit starts, no running yellows. Full stops.
Don't give them a real reason. They'll claim one, but don't hand them one.
Maybe they are admiring your car.
Tell them the supercharger is factory installed and that you did not add it.
