Default Re: 150,000 miles on my '03 GT Stage 1.

Let me say this...

I am not easy on it at all. It's been to Irwindale's 1/8th mile drag strip and done pretty well for itself. It ran a 9.71 with me in the car (6'4", 290 pounds plus I had a 100 pound Sonny Bryant crankshaft for my FC in the back. I went there just to watch a friend race his car and somehow (brain malfunction) I ended up in line for tech inspection. I don't know what came over me but it was a blast. Made 7 runs that night, but lost first round of the money bracket race when the cool weather picked up the e.t. and I broke out of my dial in of 9.78. LOL. It had almost 125K on it then.

If anyone should have broken something by now it should have been me. I will say this, though. I have backed off a little ever since the odo hit 130K. I figured I should give it a break before it gives me one.

As for getting another car for daily driving, I really have no desire for any other car. What other small car can you put 5 adults in one day and an 8 foot ladder in the next?
