I got a sixty-nine chevy with a 396
Fuelie heads and a hurst on the floor
Shes waiting tonight down in the parking lot
Outside the seven-eleven store
Me and my partner sonny built her straight out of scratch
And he rides with me from town to town
We only run for the money got no strings attached
We set `em up and then we shut `em down

Tonight tonight the strips just right
I wanna blow `em off in my first heat
Summers here and the time is right
Were goin racin in the street

We take all the action we can meet
And we cover all the northeast state
When the strip shuts down we run `em in the street
From the fire roads to the interstate
Some guys they just give up living
And start dying little by little piece by piece
Some guys come home from work and wash up
Then go racin in the street

Tonight tonight the strips just right
I wanna blow `em all out of their seats
Calling out around the world
Were going racin in the street

I met her on the strip three years ago
In a camaro with this dude from l.a.
I blew that camaro off my back and drove that little girl away
But now theres wrinkles around my babys eyes
And she cries herself to sleep at night
When I come home the house is dark
She sighs baby did you make it all right
She sits on the porch of her daddys house
But all her pretty dreams are torn
She stares off alone into the night
With the eyes of one who hates for just being born

For all the shut-down strangers and hot rod angels
Rumbling through this promised land
Tonight my baby and me were gonna ride to the sea
And wash these sins off our hands

Tonight tonight the highways bright
Out of our way mister you best keep
`cause summers here and the time is right
Were goin racin in the street

You may be in the lead but this race has no finish line.

Venus
Powers: Pheromones 100x that of the average human, combined with limited Telepathy, almost any man is immediately led to believe he is in love with her and would do anything she requests. Able to bend their will, and control their desires she is able to repress any aggressive behavior or Ill will towards her.

Has never found love due to the fact that she has never known if someone's feelings for her are real or just their uncontrollable desir
e for her due to her powers. Joined Xaiver's X-men for companionship, to use her power for a noble reason and in hope of finding a mutant able to resist her powers and love her for her.

Always found with faithful companion and protector, Mars.

Mars
Powers: Super Human strength, uncontrolled rage, extremely limited intelligence.

Mars was found by the mob and used as their number one enforcer for years due to his strength and rage. His mob leaders would convince him that his targets had wronged him in some way and he should get revenge. He never fully understood any of the reasons given, but the slightest provacation was enough to set him in motion. Due to his low intellegence he is in essence asexual and single minded in his anger until the day when his gang was stopped by Venus. Mars is the only man that on first meeting Venus has not immediately desired her, but her mere presence fills him with a peace he has never felt before. Venus felt that Mars needed a second chance and was happy to have the company of a man who didn't desire her as every man in the past has. Mars wears a self-imposed chain around his neck, to help control his violent impulses, which Venus leads him around by, only letting him loose when she is in danger and needs to be protected.

**Note**
I think this idea would work better as villans, but I'm making them hero's for the sake of the contest.
I'm thinking of this back story and writing it late at night and I'm tired, so if it doesn't make sense, I'm sorry.
Oh, I should also point out, venus is the roman goddess of love, Mars is the roman god of war

Some kind of Lamborghini... P:
I'm glad I finished it!! Those Lambo-designers are crazy :)
The wheel is a little off balance I think .. but whatever...
This car is safer because you can't talk with the passenger, so you'll just keep your eyes on the road...
And with its acceleration it is recommended. =]

i find all ive been doing is portraits lately. this could either be good practice or lack of immagination.

a round of applause to whoever can identify this "junkhead"

edit: staci got it, it's layne staley =3
