rant about old town kissimmee
took the cobalt out there a couple times for the parade and had a great time but this time the guys at the gate wont let me in. not enough aftermarket stuff they say although they allow in certain cars of special interest. not only that during their inspection the guy at the gate is gonna argue with me that my tint is factory tint since tint was on their upgrades list. needless to say im not real happy with the gate keepers there turning me away after a 35 mile trip . what really got me was not only have i been there a couple times but in front of me they let in a stock truck covered in bumper stickers and behind me a smashed down the side 1/2 totalled ford probe. during all this i would say we were of the special interest category as everyone was checking out us in the cobalt rather than the soon to be scrap around us. guess theyre off our list as there is no way im gonna ruin a brand new sports car with stickers and crap just to get in there. the positive thing that came out of this night would be i killed the vw that was buzzing in my mirror on the way home . pretty sure it was gti but im not a vw guy so i cant be absolutely sure . i know he had a turbo and thought he was hot stuff when he tried to blast past me in 2nd . i was tryin to be cool cuz i had my chick with me but i eased into the peddle and quickly regained the car length he had gotten with the element of surprise. by the time i hit 3rd he was 2 car lengths behind and too embarassed to come up next to me at the next light. sorry for the long read but i needed a good vent after the evening fiasco! beware if you goto old town as the old guys are ballbusters for visible aftermarket!
