BLACK BEAUTY BLOG- WHY WE LOVE OUR MUSCLE CARS?
Why we love our muscle cars? For guys and gals , its simple , its like how you love your kids, or your pets , ? Well for muscle car dudes and dudettes, we love our cars because , the car represents our personality , we take so much time to clean , wax, polish , etc our rides, We wouldn't any one to scratch or beat our cars with a branch or what? I mean.. if we wouldn;t beat our cars with a branch , why would you beat your child with one? Just a ethical thought.
For me, when people , smile , or give me the thumbs up when I pass by , its the greatest feeling, because we car folks want the attention.. Its an addiction to have a special ride,, I mean.. I have Had cars that got me to point a to point b.. but ever since I got my muscle car. my feeling and thoughts have changed about cars, about hobbies , about being passionate for something you love. I a avid Martial artists and love doing weapons demo's, but having a cool car is a cut above, because everyone I feel loves looking and riding in a cool car.. Even though I get challenged... funny , my car is called a " Challenger ' I just wonder why a kid thinks his beat up Honda with a loud exhaust is a match to any muscle car ,, bewilders me.. or better yet those clowns that spend more money on a sound system , that is essentially worth more than the freaking car,. Insanity , stupidity or just being young and dumb and full of fun?/
Now back to my passion, Every time I start up beauty , its so exciting , I mean, the rumble of the mufflers , the tinted windows, the low stance and the pitch black color with red hash marks , makes is so distinctive,, but that's ok.. we love it that way.. I love the feel of a big car with big wheels and a aggressive look, It makes me feel invincible. Yes, I know I take chances when i drive,, shouldn't but who wouldn;t driving a muscle car.. I mean the long cruising drives to Vegas, and the winding roads of Ortega highway and to valley view casino makes , those trips ever more fun.. especially the Vegas trip I was racing on 120-160 mph.. with my radar detector , it made it safer.. It only went off once on the highway.. I mean,, I don't advocate speeding, but if you must , its better to be safe than sorry. But that's a muscle car life.. Speeding down the highway..
Now ,. my latest story is this,, one night on the Nascar 15 in Tenecula , I was driving home at about a 85-90 clip. when this shiny red corvette with a young kid urging me to race him,, i would of , but my detector was going off.. he soon took off. and of course moments later , well actually at the next exit , he was pulled over.. My estimation he was going 120 + ME... i SLOWED TO 80... while the CHP raced. by,, Hey ,, I know how that feels,,, That's why I use a radar detector and don't speed at night.. it's so hard to see those guys at night.. But of course .. I get challenged, tail gated, etc. because everyone thinks they are a race driver.. But guess what? What do we gain racing one another? A ego boost , a ticket , or worst yet causing a crash.. I know.. Its the muscle car mentality.. You have to be bad ass al the time.. But as I get older and alot less bolder.. Just driving around with beauty is almost enough fun for me.. But on those occasion's when I want to let it rip.. Inland Empire. has many wide open roads to enjoy my ride,,, I Love San Diego.. but it doesn't have enough places for me to drive my car fast like the Temecula valley area.. Hey, the main reason I love my ride is that gives me the pride and satisfaction, after all those years serving this great nation, The car represents my sacrifices and pains with my family. The car is me.. the car is an extension of who I am..and If you don't have such a special car , then you don't know the feeling. But if you want to feel the passion,, Attend a car show , big, small, classic,, muscle or what,, The feelings and emotions from the car enthusiasts is overwhelming and contagious.. I know its hard to explain the feelings I get when I drive beauty , but one thing is for sure.. Its my last new car and only car I want until the end of days.. Unless I win the lottery and of course I would get a Corvette , Or Viper or both.. But for now. Black beauty is my girl that I love to show off every time I drive her and she always performs when I want her too and always looks and feels good.. It sound like a human.. its funny us car folks,, We think our cars are human like and that's why we spend so much time with our girl... The Ride, the Car, the thing that brings a smile to our face.. Like I said.. if you want to feel or see the passion we feel,, Come chat with A muscle car person.. and mention their car,, You will hear and see the passion in our eyes and smiles,,, We love our muscle cars because its a way of life, a way of thinking , a way living.. and unless you own one.. You can appreciate what we feel.. Because ,, its breath taking and amazing how we feel every time we take our cars for a ride.. and if your curious ..?? Go take a ride with a Muscle car person..
