Dude you're trying to hard. There is a guy in my neighborhood that has a really sweet built to the hilt LS powered GTO. Its registered and driven just about every day. I see and hear him go by several times a week. Today I swing in to get gas and there the guy is with his GTO up on a trailer behind his Chevy truck. I say hi, did the car break? Are you heading to the drags? Is the car sold? It was for sale. He replies "no no nothing like that, I'm just going to the cruise night up the street". I look and he even removed the license plates and wrote numbers on the window in shoe polish. When he asked if I was going I replied no, I'm going to my daughter's awards dinner, you have fun at the cruise night posing.

That's like a 'flash roll'. One $100 bill around a roll of $1 bills wrapped in a rubber band. Makes ya look loaded when in reality ya can't even make the rent.

Did he still have the street tires on it or did he have some stock sized Hoosiers?

I understand what a tool is.

I don't understand the reasoning behind making a street/strip car look like a dedicated racer and towing it to a show. Insane street cars are cooler than dedicated drag cars in my mind.
