[s-cars] 1988 Trans Am footage

[Kevin Campbell]

I have to say I love the video, especially with the sound cranked up.
However, there was a serious drawback to installing the p2p client -
after installing, my Webroot Spy Sweeper program picked up 26 spy/adware
traces installed on my laptop.  And for those who are unfamiliar with
these things they are basically malicious software applications that get
installed on your computer to track keystrokes and website visits.
That's right.  Enter enough commonly use keystokes (i.e. user names and
password) and they'll track it.
