Camaro burnout.

Even more intense burnout.

The sound of that LS1 with the GMMG exhaust is pure heaven!

Chevy thunder in Norway, baby!

F'jord about it!

There went a set of rear tires.

Lol Diablo, nice find.

Actually that's quite an ordinary sight in summer. American cars (especially the classic old ones) are rather popular here, and there are AmCar clubs everywhere.

is fuel in norway $US 9.00 per gallon like it is in finland?

Viking · « **Reply #6 on:** May 20, 2007, 11:46:25 AM »

Yeah, something like $8-$9 a gallon.

it must be tough to drive those fuel hungry V8s there. I'm getting 14mpg out of my nissan titan.

Jesus, unless I'm way off... that's double what I pay in Australia at our 'all time high' petrol prices of rougly $1.20 - $1.40 (AUD) per Litre.

(compared to US gallons, not Imperial)

I'm spending $50 a week in my Ford easily, not even travelling every day.

No wonder all the Norsk Black metallers are running around in the forest.... Petrol is too ****ing expensive!

it's the punitive taxation that is the cause of the high prices in those small but extremely socialistic "progressive" countries. all's equal eh comrade?

Meh, the way the climate-debate is going, you should expect punitive taxation on all gasoline/diesel purchases in the future. Its not for naught that the Swedish prime minister was testifying before a congressional hearing on environmental policies last week you know.

Yeah, it's expensive, but most of those cars are not daily drivers. Most are carefully maintained and fanatically detailed pieces of road going jewelry that only come out to play during clear summer days. The fuel tax here is insane. Socialists be damned.
