Default Any TA's flyin' in Delaware..?

I'm a newbie here but I'm the OO of my 99TA... I''m a little tired of the stuffed shirts where I work telling me to buy a BMW or Mercedes and bail on my beloved TA. (not that I can even afford to fork out cash like that these days) I'm trying to breath some new life in my TA which happens to be my daily driver with some new mods. I think it would be cool to see what others are doing to their rides in my area...

I saw a post about Cecil County..... I don't race my TA so I don't get down to the drags much... I do have to laugh though at the ricers that pull up next to me and want to... Every time they do though it make me think of this story (to me it seems to fit):

" A father bull and son were on top of a hill looking down at a herd of cows. The son turns to the Dad and says “ Dad, how about we run down this hill and F#&* one of those cows.” His Dad turns and looks at him with a smile and says, “ Son, why don’t we walk down there and F#&* them all. "

They may get me off the line but that's all they get...

i dont have a Trans Am, but i do own a 98' 1LE Z28. im in the newark, DE area... where in DE are you located?

my car has boltons, and a mild head/cam setup. im planning to go to cecil on sept 18th for test and tune to try out my new nitrous system. you should head down there sometime, theres usually alot of LS-cars running. if you had any questions about setups, they woud be the guys to ask

anyway, if you see a NBM, stock looking Z28 around kirkwood hwy, its probably me. throw me a rev and ill give you a much better run than the ricers youre used to!

I'm in Wilmington with a Pewter formula. Haven't been able to bring her out much in the past few months, but hopefully that will change. Say what's up if you see me.

Giant piece of ****.

No seriously though if you want to see some T/As and get some work done.

Come down to Race Proven Motorsports.

Default A little help uploading pics

Hey guys...

Stupid question here I'm sure, but I finally had time to take some pics of my ride. I can't figure out how to post them. I know how to send them by email but can't figure what to do here. Sorry if this is in a sticky someplace.
