Your Earliest Fast Car Experiences?

I told this here years ago but I love to tell it. I was 13 and we visited my older brother and family in Monrovia CA. It was 1962 and my brother had a 413 Polara and cruised around Pasadena looking for street races. In my two months there we never lost. It wasn't totally stock but not heavily modified either. To a 13 yo kid I thought we were flying. What a rush. After all these years still my fondest memories.
