Hey im about an hour and 45 minutes away from rochester. I just got a LS1 Trans Am and i will be going to the track with it. I used to have a 11 sec Mustang and i used to go to Luckys Drag City in Lowellville PA, Dunn Tire Raceway in Lancaster NY and NewYork International in Liechester NY. I think NYIRP is the best track out of the 3 Tracks. Maybe ill see you guys out there!

Also from Rochester. NYIRP is a very good track in my opinion.

New Era is a great shop. There are many guys that have their cars modded their that go to NYIRP frequently.

Try Rochesterracing.com for some locals.

Fuccillo...that place is HUUUUGE!

Oh god, anyway yeah, i'm down ridge road more towards stone road, but same area. As soon as the weather around here break and i get the bird out, i'll plan on stopping by.

And yes, New Era is a great group to work with. I have Mike tune and re-tune my TA everytime I make some changes to my setup each year.

Yes, they do. Nick is a great fab guy, and dose some really nice TIG work form stainless, and alum. He did my 4130 rollbar, an other stuff on the car. And dose the G8, cts-v, 2010 camaro intakes if you have seen them. The custom stuff can cost some $$$, but it will be what you wnat. There is some really nice bolt on exhust stuff too, like my ARH headers. I couldn't make one set from scratch, for what they cost. Call to find out about what you want. Or stop up, its nice out. I was there today with my car. And theres a bunch of really nice car, people dropped off to get work done.

yea i went up there to talk to mike about getting my car tuned in april when i get my lt's and true duals goin. they said it wasnt worth it to get it custom cause of how much it was gonna cost so im prob just going with a summitt x pipe kit and fab whatever else i need myself. and is your car the orange one thats always parked outside lately or is that someone elses?
