It's been 8 years since this video of Gilles at Carlisle had my heart on fire...crowd screaming, smoke everywhere. I've moved in and out of 2 Hellcats and a Redeye Widebody since.
It has been a great ride and something I never dreamed could happen after living through the end of the 1st Muscle Car Era and the dark decades afterwards.
All brokeass back then, life turned around with much effort and perseverance. I was able to play hard, baby, this round...only regret...not landing a Demon...but can't complain. Always paid way under MSRP and the Redeye was way, way under invoice with Power Bucks and negotiation.
To go out this way makes me feel like I did as a teenager in the 70's, breaking up with my "1st love". So heartbreaking.
Between this sticker car crap, seeing the "street takeover" crowd running Mopar, our rides crashing like damn Mustangs all over the place...damn, man...
