Cingular's service needs to step it up. I had their service about 3 years ago, and honest to god, I didn't get reception in an open field. I have verizon now and I haven't found a spot where I don't get reception.

Mystery- when I saw that commercial I was like "HEY... that's my line!" J/K!

Jesse- that's that damn Michael Johnson for you, I'm going to have to get him to do another write up on the car to correct it. Thanks for reminding me!

And for those that don't already know, "the car that set the bar" is really all done "tounge in cheek" as we all know there is always someone out there faster than we are. Its just done in good fun. It was a term that kept coming up everytime I'd run a new best at the track. I'd come back here and post it and people would say that I raised the bar again... that's how it all came to be.

Yeah I know but I'm figuring he has an advantage with his stick. I'm only able to launch at around 1800rpms which gives me around a 1.9 60'.

Oh Well it's just for fun anyways.
