re: #130 Shiplord Kirel, Friend of Moose and Squirrel

Has anyone else noticed what I call “all noise, no speed” muscle cars? Saw one this afternoon, a late model Camaro. It was trundling along at the legal 15 mph but sounded like a vintage F-1 Ferrari doing 150 through a switch back. I’ve noticed quite a few of these lately. Guess it’s a comment on American culture, since we appear to be overrun with self-styled “badass” types who seem to be all ass and no bad.

I remember reading an article about the re-introduced Mustangs about 10 years ago which said that the prototypes were relatively quiet. They purposely added growling that in no way corresponds to power for that very reason.
