Post subject:  ABC's dateline: street racing

Well, I'm sure not to many of you saw the show, but basically they followed around 1 guy, and did interviews with him. He is someone that is a regular on ls1.com. Anyway, the video is about 6 1/2 min, so it would take a long time to download, but it is the whole segment.

For those of you that watch it, can you tell me where he has put the est 90k in the car? Also, the story is twisted, because they make him out to be poor, but he's not. The apartment they show, is just something he bought, and goes to know and then, also the garage where they interview him, the red car is his also, so he is not hurting for money. ABC just twisted the story for impact.

Here is the the link to the vid:

They said it was for his 2 cars and the modifications to them. The guys name is Chris Johnson and yes he is a regualar on LS1.com...

I think that the point they were trying to make was that he spends $2500 per month on his cars and doesn't have any savings, college fund for his kids, only lives in an apt...not a house, etc.

It was actually a pretty interesting story...I saw it on TV.
