Default Guy who raced with us once is selling firehawk

https://ls1tech.com/forums/special-edition-vehicles/295545-wanna-nice-firehawk.html

This is the guy who raced with us once a couple years ago and dynoed once.

He had the Black convertible 02. That car was loud as hell then. Looks like he went to a 427. Would be a fun car and a fun drive back from Texas.

That's Marks car. Nice ride. VERY LOUD! I still remember the day he set the car alarms off in the Everett Mall parking lot at the All Pontiac Show. And the time he rev'd at me in Marysville & rattled the store front windows. Sweet car, although it always seemed like a bit of an under-achiever to me. Maybe it needs the "driver mod"? lol

But $49k? Damn, I could buy Todds car AND a new GTO for that. Or drop a LS7 in it. Lemme think here.....tick....tick....tick.....no, I think Todds car is the better choice.

That's right, it was you that set the alarms off. And I agree Joe. Your car sounded SWEET! While his car was just plain loud.....and too harsh in my opinion! It was a lot louder than my car is, and it had a sharp edge to the exhaust tone that I just didn't care for. I guess the SLP Loudmouth aint for everyone. As I think back, maybe it was because he didn't have cats.

Hey I resemble that remark...

I have the TSP Rumbler, which is basically a Loudmouth with a bullet muffler instead of a resonator. It is VERY loud... when my car starts up, people turn to look. Not a refined sound by any stretch... but it works for me.

I haven't sold it yet - probably lose my *** if I did. And yes the car is deafening now - but now runs in the 10's instead of the mid 12's I was running in Bremerton. Take care guys.

Later, Mark
