I am trying to find out whats your solution(s), I understand that some will actually think its a thrill, but not in my case.
Some like it, some don't...nothing you can do about it.

My high school sweetheart hated it

The currect GF loves when I get on it

I have had girls that love it, then there are the few that scream my ears off as we are getting sideways coming into boost I just laugh at them. I mean I do respect girls, but if they cant handle my hobby, then I dont know what to tell them.

My girl offered to help me pay for it, when Sharif dropped the $-bomb(kinda like the n-bomb, but only worse) on me. Shes ok with it, because she knows this is what I do, like her and that damn Bingo, she recently won 10k so I cant be too mad. Her problem is this site,so says I spend too much time on here and neglect her! All I hear is "all you want to do is go home and log onto myZ350". I tell her nope, I dont know what the hell that is, I want to log onto my350Z. I showed her the site and told her all I do is stay in the Politics section all day, lol.

my gf can't understand the money flying out of my wallet for the car or $XXXXX being spent on wheels and stuff. especially when it sits most of the time. but, she gets even more upset than i do if we can't make it to a show for some reason. think she likes the attention the car gets also and just wants to be the girl seen in the passenger seat, lol.

I have a friend that used to freak out anytime I got more than 30%ish on the throttle.

Then I let her borrow the G35 for a month... problem solved.

My wife hates it, but she knows I love it. She's understanding for the most part. She really hates when I am posting on this site though.

you should say "thats the sound of whoopass can im about to open on you"


further more....

1. a can of whoopass

A phrase used to indicate that the target is about to be introduced to a whole world of pain. Specifically, you, by opening this can, are going to unleash the power of whooping (that is, in the sense of attacking and beating, not in the sense of whooping cough) upon their sorry ***.

1. Specific use:
Jerry paused in thought.
"For what you have said about my mother, my girlfriend, and the proud ancestry of my forebears," he announced, "I have every intention of opening a can of whoopass."

2. General form:
"If <offending body> continues with <offending action>, it is totally time to open a can of whoopass"
