So I'm waiting at this light in the left lane to make left turn. The lane to my right is also a left turn only lane, and its a pretty long sweeping left across 3 lanes of cross traffic. I'm waiting there, minding my own business, and this black car pulls up on the right of me just a little bit ahead of me. I really thought at first this was an Acura Integra, but I didn't take a good look at it. Anyway, I figure whatever car that is, it is NOT getting in front of me, so I throw it in gear and take off as soon as the left turn arrow turned green. I didn't really push first to hard, and out of the corner of my eye I saw that this car was still trying to keep up. I jammed into second and wound that out for a good clip, still leading. As I nail it into third, my wife asks me if we are in a drag race or something. I said, "Yeah, kinda!" I really felt the torque kick in in the mid to upper range of third, and still leading by a car length I hit 4th and gave it the gas. I'm not sure at what speed I maxxed her out at, but there was a red light up ahead so I decided that it was time to shut it down. Since he was at least a car length behind me,I'm sure he saw me hit my brakes to signal that as far as I was concerned, this race was over. As he limped on by, I noticed it was a new model Monte Carlo SS. This car had NOTHING on my MAX at all, and the MAX performed flawlessly!

Thank you for keeping those GM tin cans in check, Maximized.
They need a reality check from time to time ( those Monte Carlo, Grand Prix drivers.)
BTW thanks for the info on the clear bumper lenses, they came after 3 days I ordered them and looks great with the
blue bulbs. By any chance, did you happen to use some 3M double sided tape for cushion? I find them to have a little play.
Keep up the good work!!
