    Gimme a couple days and I'll find some vids of sick street racing in El Paso. Shouldnt really call it street racing though since its legal down there. They shut down a runway on the local airport and let kids drag race down it on weekend nights, no timing lights, just a girl waving her hands, but typical head to head racing albeit with a legal raceway to do so.

    Have fun when you're down there, I know my car went through its paces on the El Paso runways so good luck bro.

    damn, bet you wish you kept your stockers. I took my ebay headlights off if you need to buy one. I'll sell it super cheap

    Here's the link for the drag racing down there. I'm not sure if they still do this since the video was from late 03.

    Here's a funny pic he took on his way out there, back when the car was a total sleeper.

    i have my stockers but well my friends ex thought u could clean a headlight with carb cleaner so the right one is screwed and my insurance is trying to screw me out of repairing the back bumper because the paint was chipped on the top even tho u can see where the tire damaged it .....but im not giving up
