This is a pretty cool thread, I'll play too.

1) No. I've never smoked anything in my life. Not even one puff.
2) Lots of times.
3) I have many times.
4) Ditto
5) I've had many races both on the street and at the track. A couple memorable ones were:

(NA L36 at the time) Street: A Hyundai Tiburon was squealing his tires a bit and I lined up next to him at a stop light. The light turned green and he squealed his tires a little and I roasted mine. Caught up to him at about 30mph and when my Monte shifted into second at about 45mph, the Monte's tires chirped. Then I shut down and laughed my butt off as he did a ricer fly-by. I told my friend who was in the car with me that I should have winked at the guy's girlfriend or something.

(NA L36) Street: I was in a hurry and pulled up next to a Duramax diesel in a lane that was ending about a tenth of a mile past the stop light. The light turned green and the truck took off. I couldn't accept that so I hauled off and passed him. He probably was thinking something like 'how did that Lumina beat me?' lol.

(CSC Novi 1k L36) Street: A couple guys I knew were behind me in my lane when I pulled up next to a 2004 or so F-150. The guys were yelling out there window for me to smoke the truck. It was a middle age guy in the truck and he asked me if I wanted to race when the light turned green. I said sure. When the light changed he took off and I was so excited that I just floored it and sat there smoking my tires. I let off and got back into it and accidentally continued smoking my tires even after it shifted into second. I finally gave up as the guy was way ahead of me. When I pulled up next to him he laughed and said 'You're not going to go anywhere spinning those tires.' I laughed and agreed and said good run. The guys behind me thought it was the best thing they had ever seen.

I'm getting my Monte out again for the first time in 2 1/2 years in about a week or so. I'm excited

1. Yes, by previous owner (I'm still trying to get smell out)

2. Yes, again judging be p/o's ice cream (I hope ) stain on the back set.
I've had "new" seats -from a tiburon- for a while now, they are getting put in over the summer(seem like a near perfect fit)

3.Judging by crumbs inside console, someone liked chips. I only ate once in the car. It was still filthy from p/o.

4.Once again, judging by the dried cola under the console, someone used to. I only drink water inside. I have a big enough mess to clean up.

5. Nothing serious

This summer, I'm giving my car a complete detail inside and out. It needs it, the last owner abused it physically but not mechanically, i bet she left some cobwebs in the engine that I'll have to work out

I'm also going to tackle that ignition switch and btsi this summer, I haven't had time in the last year due to school, etc.
I got another ignition recently and I'm curious to see if it cures my key issue. I still think its mostly the btsi. We'll see in another week.
