Hawaii is paradise right?

As much as I like being stationed on Oahu...there are some things I really dislike as a car enthusiast.

#1 There is no drag strip here anymore, so where do we race?
#2 Shipping and Handling prices are ridiculous for performance parts
#3 Traffic gets very congested
#4 The DA levels are high in most parts
#5 There aren't any good tuning shops I know of
#6 There aren't any really good car shows

Agree. Was stationed there twice..... a long time ago!

You have to admit thought, cruising the island can be pretty sweet!

Yes it is. You can't beat cruising the roads by the ocean in a performance car.

There is a ton of performance cars on base, but there really isn't anywhere to race. I don't support street racing, but my wife told me she was on H1 and a Corvette came beside her and revved his engine and they went. She claimed they were even until they had to slow down due to upcoming traffic. I am assuming it might have been a C5 because a C6 probably would have left her. I was not too happy about hearing about it. lol


BTW I have only seen one 2016 Camaro SS on the road other than mine, but have seen a few LT models. 2015+ Mustang's are all over the place here.

The law should be even better over there. After all, you guys got Dog the Bounty Hunter living there to keep justice and peace.

lol. We actually drove down to his residence just to see where he lives and while we was headed down the road he lives on he passed us headed the opposite direction in his black suv.
