Yeah Im in no hurry to finish it, Trying to do it as cheap as possible. Instead of rushing out to get what I want I'll wait and get what I need! Got a lot of good friends in the turbo area that are helping me out. I wish I would have went with an LS motor a long time ago. I dont get out to St. Chuck much but our team (lethal1320.com) is at the track constantly since the whole street race scene is virtually non existent anymore. But still happens from time to time, Alot of these guys dont wanna run an 8 second car on the street just cause some kid calls him out... To much to lose and risk...

every thursday night (weather cooperating) people go down to chesterfield valley sonic. boones crossing exit and go right, youll see it. plenty of action there.

JJs, not sure when the exact dates are, but every so often people meet there. its at west clay & duchesne rd (just up from pundmann ford). it spills over to the bank across the street right there.

Welcome!

Hey Nate, I'm right down the down the road from you off of Harvester.
