Hey guys, i've been using Ls1 tech for research and entertainment for a while now and just now signing up.

Been an f-body owner since 05. My grandpa had a 77 Camaro he drove me around in when i was very little so that kind of shaped my automotive personality.

My first car was a Toyota Celica that i kept very clean and well maintained, but the first time i drove a Camaro it was like Revelation.

So right now i have an 02 WS.6 and then also a 91 Regal sedan that i use for a daily driver. My friend has a 91 GTA he keeps at my house because his wife hates it so i feel like i have 2.5 cars.

Finally, i like to hit up the Fayetteville drag strip whenever possible if anyone else here goes there.

welcome, your a good dude for letting your buddy keep his car, if not, the wife probably would have had it gone on him, haha.

Welcome to the LS1tech world, and also from Raleigh. I have a 1991 Pontiac Trans Am and I still love my very 1st car.

What he said. I'm on HPJ as well and I'm in southern VA. But, welcome and nice ride as well. We'll be at Fayetteville Nov 16 for Dragging Rights. You should come. It's a great time.

Lol no she knew about it. She just hates everything that brings him joy that doesn't involve her. She stays at home and doesn't work, spends his spare cash after he pays the bills and then yells at him when he wants to buy something for himself. All his friends including myself took bets on how long that's gonna last

Killerarmy do you still have that 91? I've seen a green one in town but haven't met the owner of it. Just wondering if i ever noticed your car driving around.

I'll probably sign up on HP junkies later today. After i give my friend's car its weekly loud as **** drive around the block (you know, to keep the fluids circulating)

I usually can't get to Fayettenam on Saturdays because i work 6pm-1am but i could give it a shot to try and get out there. I'm usually there on a run whatcha brung test N tune days on Sundays (fridays in the summer)
