The first time my kids rode in my car (6 and 3) they said "daddy, your car is like a rocket taking off!" So I got a vanity plate that says liftoff.
On the way to take the 3 year old to his Grandma's there is a traffic light on a 60mph highway (you can see where this is going). We were lucky enough to be the first car waiting for the green light!
I say "hold on buddy prepare for lift off!"
Shift into S
Turn light goes from green to yellow
Hold 2000 RPM
Green light!
Floor it, let go of brake
vrOOOOOOOM
"daddy"
OOOOOOOM
"Daddy"
OOOOOOOM
"Daddy!"
OOOOOOOM
I let off the gas around 80
"DADDY!!!!"
"Yes buddy?"
"That makes me smile!"
"Me too buddy, me too."
Great story... Made me laugh out loud ... Gotta love it!
Another reason NOT to drink beer while browsing this forum ;)
Great story!
That's hilarious...........thanks for sharing!! :yell:
I love it! My boy is only 1 and he still giggles when I launch it. Future gears heads for sure.
I still giggle when I launch it too. ^^^^
Me too!
Love this story! Last night I had my brother and two nephews and wile cruising the streets we decided to time a zero to 60 with a full car. Take in mind one of my nephews weighs 270 lbs and I have a 35lb spare in the trunk. We got a rough time of 5.5 seconds and my brother who rebuilds engines for a living was blown away at the power from a 6 cyl! Yes these cars launch!
Great story! Many many years ago I was that little boy. Look what it's got me today.. lol :-)
