So Mean
Leaving town today I just could not resist. The road goes from 2 lanes down to 1 after about a mile. I pulled up behind a TransAm that had the vanity plate "SO MEAN" on his car I just started to grin because beside him he had a ricer with the proverbial wing. I figured this would get interesting so I was in for a bit of fun, when the light went green I stuck with the TransAm and when he dusted the Honda with the big WAZOO I blind-sided The Trans by passing them both. I figured the Pontiac would be a bigger challenge or he just got out of it, so a couple of miles out of town I ran into slower traffic making right turns onto a side road and had the Trans stuck on my bumper for retaliation so I guess. When the lane cleared I left "SO MEAN" standing alone again. Anyone got info on stock times for a 95-96 TransAM, I really was disappointed he did not make a bigger effort.
I am running the Pred in 100HP mode with stock tires for winter…that would put me in low 14’s to high 13’s just my guess.

Not sure what can be beat, but I know of a vanity plate that does not live up to its fame. I think the TA in 95 was a 350 V8 if not mistaken...now a W-6 might not be as easy.
