Default Hi All, New Here.

Hi all, new to the forums and to LSX's just replaced my mudstang with a BGC(Blue Green Chameleon) 2001 Formula, looking forward to learning something new (GM's) since I've been Ford for many years.
I'm 30 min west of Gainesville if you dont know where Trenton is.
I'm originally from Daytona, moved to Colorado in 03 and transferd with my job back to Florida in 07.

Welcome. There are a bunch of good guys in Gainesville. There's actually a small car club meet tonight in G-ville. It's at 8pm in the parking lot that's next to Wendy's that closed down. Just east of I-75 on Archer.

Cool, I've heard of Timco.
I think one of the knuckleheads I work with said he worked there at one time, I'll ask him tomorrow.
His name is Ken Hamilton, ring a bell??
