Default 89 Iroc Z VS 00 SS Father and son heads up!

Went to the track Friday night with my dad. We were able to race each other for the first time in years! Not much of a race but man what a blast. He has a 89 Iroc Z with 68,000 orig miles. I bought the car when I was in high school back in 98 and we decided to keep it all these years lol.

We deciced to hang onto the car seeing its in such great shape!

Most def. He's helped me tons over the years and being an old school tool and die guy, he's came up with some slick tools for difficult jobs. Here's a pic of the car.

Me too. Personally I don't like the wheels on it now. They were on my Mazda 6. I keep telling my dad to order the oem wheels. But hey I gave them to him for free.

Put new wheels on and did some mods to the Iroc. Hawks cold air, SLP air foil and headman shorty headers.
