we've been together for a few years now and she's been on quite a few quick rides i've owned. cars and bikes such as my worked sti, and my gsxr1000 and zx7rr, the zx7rr being the one that got totaled when a 17yr old rear ended me and broke my neck in two spots. anyway, since i got the cobra back from the shop with the mods, it's a total animal. the supercharger whine is so loud, you can barely hear yourself think, but i'm not complaining. anyway, i'm a very safe driver, but my girlfriend told me she is very afraid of this car, and she was dead serious about it. i drive it very conservatively with her because i know she's afraid, but you can still see how she's tense in it. so to sum everything up, with the way she feels and the way she looks when i accelerate, i, for now, have the car right where i want it.

hahhah... but to be honest with you most of my girlfriends hated my car. They thought it was too loud and uncomfortable. They liked the way it looked and all but it just wasn't for them... but i don't care. I didn't build the car to get girls, i built that shit for myself!

i can totally hear that though...that's why i have a denali also which everyone loves :beer:
