Default Congrats to Ronnie (geeteego), Nice Mag Feature In Hi-Perf Pontiac

Just wanted to give a shout out to geeteego for a great feature on his car in the Nov 2008 issue of Hi Performance Pontiac. Very much deserved with everthing that Ronnie and the car has been through to get where it is for sure

Thanks Mike!!!

I think the article spoke for almost everything you did to get the car where it is.

It's an honor for sure...and the realization of a once-16-year-old drooling over hot cars in magazines, saying "one day, that'll be my car".

Thanks Richie! It wouldn't have looked nearly as good without your help!

To this day I still get compliments on how terrific the car looks for a daily driven '04.

Kevin DiOssi, (CamaroSS). He shot the car at Orlando-Apopka airport. Did the research and article himself.

I am very proud to now call him a friend. The guy's a total class act and knows his stuff.

I was looking at a caged/stripped-out roller up in PA and one up in East Tennessee, but, neither of them were quite what I was looking for. Again, congrat's on making the mag layout. :-)

I'm glad I was able to shoot your car, Ronnie. It was a pleasure meeting you, and I am also happy to call you a friend. Thank you very much for the kind words.

Ah yes, Cathy. I'm good friends with her. She's great! haha I hope she's doing well and that she will return to our staff as soon as she feels she can. Tell her Kevin DiOssi and the Tampa office says hello!
