a lot - multiple items; usually meaning a large number
"There sure are a lot of Camaros sitting in Oshawa."
allot - to distribute or assign a portion of something
"I will allot each person 10 minutes per speech."

Maybe I am wrong, but I don't think you need an apostrophe here.

[Tactical Z]

Agreed, cuz if Mustangs is Mustangs, then Camaros are Camaros.

For those that are not aware or have simply forgotten what they learned in elementary school:

through-"I am through with this thread."
threw-"The engine threw a rod"
sell-"I have decided to sell my car."
sale-"I made the sale on Tuesday."
loose-"The lugnuts were loose."
lose-"The Camaro can never lose!"
mute-"I had to mute the radio."
moot-"It's a moot point."
choose-"You need to choose your races wisely."
chose-"I chose a 2SS over a GT500."
break-"I was tired, so I took a break."
brake-"The emergency brake handle is on the wrong side." (for you Vash.)
their-'Their tires were spinning through 2nd gear."
there-"There is no reason to get mad."
they're-"They're always bringing up the GT500."
your-"Hey, it's your car, do what you want to it."
you're-"You're crazy if you think an Xb is a cool vehicle."
forth-"Go forth and conquer!"
fourth-"I went through the traps in fourth gear."
to-"I went to the store after work."
too-"I like Camaro's and Mustangs, too."
two-"The car was two seconds faster than the truck."
wear-"There was a lot of wear visible on the cylinder walls."
where-"Where is my car?"



I'm sure there are others I have missed, but these are the misused words I see the most on many forums.

See I knew there was a reason all the Mustang guys hung here.

The guy who thought it would be cool to put lambo doors on the Camaro is calling me a dumbass and a loser?

[Tactical Z]

Agreed, lambo doors are ment for Murcielagos/LP640's.

But that doesnt mean that you arent a DA, please...go join the GT500 forum and leave us alone?
