Man, all of you black SS/Z28 owners that are yanking the wheels up should start an informal club. "The Black Z Bandits"

Tom The Roofer
Colonel
ONYX
MIC5EY
Richie
Larry Sample
S.A.M. Z28 (Patrick G's old car)

I wonder if I'm the only NBM Formula pulling the front wheels?

Hey Tony, you could paint the Formula black and join our club or start your own club.
