Cool Are these things just a kick in the pants to drive or what?

I just took my 62' out for a little night time drive, with the cool wind in my face and that big 390 taching up real nice.

The only thing i dont like is the poor braking ability. Now I know that these things werent built to be driven hard, but who can resist sliding the back end around corners and chirping the tires... And on mine I have those lake pipes that hit the ground when I take a corner too hard so it sends a shower of sparks.

Nothing else like it! :cool:
