Default Pittsburgh peeps come in!!!

Hey guys, just wondering where you all hang out around here. I just moved up here from Texas (my job made me) but I've been up here for a month now and I haven't seen many F-Bodies around. I live in Monroeville. I did see a Black C6 camming hard the other night tho. Anyway, I didn't bring my car up with me cause I recently live in an apartment and I don't want the garage queen out in the sun all day. LOL! Some of you might have seen me around. I drive a black FX4 with Texas plates. I'm sure you all don't get too many of these plates. LOL! Anyway, here's a few pics of my ride in street scene and drag scene. Hope to see you guys around!

The car looks good -- you don't see many with the Harwood hood.

Come up to Wexford this Friday to the Starlite car cruise. It's Camaro night and Scott Settlemire will be there.

You can also check out www.steelcitystangs.com as they are seemingly the only active people around.

There is a Camaro club -- www.pacecamaro.net (which I am going to join), but they aren't your street race crowd.

But it's a TEN SECOND CAR dude.... Though they've never been to a track, but it MUST be at LEAST a ten second car.

Where are you at in beaver? I work there and rarely ever see anything LSx or even decent running around.

I think he was referring to the BeaveRun and flashlight drags at the air strip -- not any real "gathering" spot.

I gathered that, but I've never seen anything "decent" even heading to BeaveRun and I used to work right down the road from there.

Gotcha. From their website, it seems as though they have some open track days that attract people, but I'm sure it's not anything normal. I had a blast racing their karts as part of my bachelor party.

I highly doubt one would want the kind of "beaver" that comes from Beaver county, anyway.

im right across the river from there..about 5 mins away from ellwood city..

there was a turbo LS1 camaro running around but the guy sold it..the flashlight drags at the A port got shut down ..now they hold them on the front stretch of the road course. theres a guy who works at beaverun that owns a black ws6 with alot of work gone..he road races, drifts, and auto-x's it..not that many lsx cars..a few vettes, alot of ltx and ricers tho
