that might be a good idea,the 3.5litre v6 in the nissan altima can really smoke em up if you turn off the traction control!! its not as fast as i thought it would be tho,fastest i got it up to on I91 was 140mph!maybe the mass staties can update my pic,should i shave,and get a haircut just in case?

Hey Matt...good to see you and Patty this afternoon!!! Thanks for lunch!!! How did you make out with your 'puter repairs...the whole scenario wasn't exactly confidence inspiring!!! Good thing Fred arrived...I think Sean would have gummed up the works with the melted chocolate on his hands!!!
