Heh, I had an '88 Camaro IROC with the 350. Broke literally every other week and jumped right every time i hit the brakes, but when it worked daaaaaaaaaamn it hauled ass 
I couldn't even pull out of Dad's dirt driveway without spinning all over the place.
One time I was stopped at a light turning left onto an empty 55mph road and felt like having some fun with my new toy, so I went slow around the corner at first until I was going straight. Actually, I only THOUGHT I was straight, in reality it was just my front tires that were straight on the road. Then I floored the accelerator and got sloppy everywhere, scared the living shit out of me but luckily I didn't hit anything. But hey, I was young and stupid then.
This other time I was coming home from work in that beast and got next to a yellow Mitsubishi Mirage DE. Bear in mind that the '88 IROC has the hood louvres and rear window louvres and looks extremely badass. The guy in the Mirage revved at me anyway, so when it went green I put my foot halfway down and was lengths ahead of him by 45mph.
Of course, now I like Hondas cause they just always work, but I gotta admit driving that IROC meant I never had to worry about anything I ran into at a light.:naughty:
