A few moments really stick out to me, so here they go:
Driving my dads Cobra for the first time, with my dad and by myself. I was always told I wouldn't get to drive the car until I was 35 and married, with a clean driving record. Put the top down, and cruising to school was a great expeirence.
Getting my Cobra from Maryland, and that whole trip in general. We get through the paperwork, my dad drives it off the lot (he knows I want to drive it), and we get on the highway. He then proceeds to pull off on the first exit, and my heart sank. I thought there was something really wrong with the car. He looks back and asks "You wanna drive?". I had the biggest smile ever, and is a moment I will never forget.
First self completed mod on the car. I got a short shifter (Steeda Tri-ax), and was too impatient to wait for my dad to help me the next day install it. Plus gotta look cool rolling into high school with my new short shifter bro. So I installed it that night, by myself, using forums and some general ingenuity to put it on. And it worked like a charm. I was, and still am, hooked from that point in modding my car.
Driving my friends Roush Stage 1 was another great memory I had. I got to DD his 'stang to get him home from a party, and let me tell you, that coyote 5.0 is something. He said when I left "Let them hear it". This car is straight piped back to some loud mufflers (Roush Axlebacks). And, the best part, is that since he has the Boss intake manifold, it revved out to 8k. That thing screams, and it gets up and GOES.
