welcom to all of you guys. . . .you will definitly like it here. You can create a sig in your user control panel(user cp). Write in whatever you want to show up down there. If you want to post a picture you must host it somewhere like photobucket and then post a link to it in the sig and itll show up.

becareful when installing headers, it's gonna take away about an inch and a half of your ground clearance with long tube headers... just thought i'd let you know. speed bumps will be your biggest enemy. keep me posted on the progress of your pontiac!

If you mean times. . . . havent really ran the firehawk at the track much. I ran it once when I first bought it when it was 100% stock and it had super bald tires on it for a 13.6. Last year right after Christmas there was a track rental and there were tons of f-bodies, corvettes, and CTS-V's. Hopefully something like that happens again.

Yea just to watch/hang out. . .ill be running it a little bit more since I have a 9" and am not afraid to break it. Ive ran my dad's CTS-V before and also my old 1.8t GTI. Its a good time to race or just hang out.
