Don, Thanks alot for taking the time to look at Tara's car. She's so glad to see all the lights shut off, and she's looking forward to having you go through the car.

Yeah I'd say Mike's car is making some power

Thanks Don. My car was a lot of fun driving home after the roads cleared. Tip in & partial throttle response is incredible.

I actually offered her $8000 for the car and she was willing to take it. I'm sure once Don get's it running the way it should be, she won't even be thinking about selling it.

Good times and great to meet some new people and talk to the people I haven't talked to in a while.

Seeing the stock ls2 GTO's on the dyno makes me want to replace my daily driver

Thanks Don for building me a great car. Youre the best. And I agree those LS2 gto's dynoying 320 ish stock is pretty impressive, the interior is really nice. GM did a good job on them.
Sorry i couldnt wait to see the man's car doing his usual 800+ always a treat. but got to drive to NY tonight.
