Anyone got plans? 2Slow, TWS, Venkman we all need to get together tonight!
My friend Richard is bringing his Z28 out with it's new setup and wants to run some fast cars. Somebody bring it!

Whaz up Jimmy? Thought about you and racist Rick today. Wifey and I took the 'vert out on a cruise to Enchanted Rock and went past Marble Falls. I even told her we should call you fools and see if you want to meet up, but she shitcanned that idea immediately. For some strange reason she'd rather shop at the little stores in Llano than sit around with me and my car buddies drinking beer and eating hamburgers while making dirty jokes. Can't understand her.

Seriously, I think the never ending Monsoon season is going to prevent any kind of car meet tonight.

Its all good, we went to SA raceway and he let it rip off a couple sub 12 second runs at a little over 120. Then we hopped on over to austin about 9:30 and the only action we got was a gsxr 750 that was all hopped up.

The real fun came on the way home when I started to hear a noise around the outskirts of bee caves, about the time the car started to shake. Yep he sheared off three lugs on his rear passenger Weld. So it is now 3 am and I just got home, I slept the whole way in the wrecker.

I bet mine are slower. If I'm going all the way down there, I'm heading to the Santa Clara Road exit on I-10.

Once the friggin' Blue Beast is back up, you'll see me out there.

Yes. July 20th at SAR. I seriously doubt my car will be ready.

It's discussed on Texas F-body under the "Bonfire" forum (Lounge).

At this rate, I figure I'll be racing this fall, but not much before.

Well I cant make the july 20th due to the fact that I already am going to the GTO/STI shootout at TAD that day. But I think if we set something up for late August it would be alot better for the ATX/SA thing.

If we do august I am in for sure.

LOL, in what? My Silverado HD?

I could bring out my wife's vert. I'd get the doors blown off, but at least I'd look pimp while losing.

The Pewter car? Squeaky? No insurance right now. I put it up until I'm ready to pull the tranny and replace the 3/4 synchro assembly.

The red one just blows the tires off as soon as it goes into boost. I'll get some DR's for it eventually, but I've got a bunch of **** higher on the priority list right now. I could throw some of my track wheels/tires on her, but I'm way too lazy to do that just to go out to the local meet. Plus it would be very obvious "ooow, lookie there, he's got some Hoosiers and Convo Pros on the back". Gheyness.

I'm trying to focus time and money on getting the Blue Beast back up. Just waiting and waiting... and waiting... for the motor to come back.
