Why don't you join LPAC? http://www.psulpac.org/

I'll be up Friday evening for the blue/white weekend (not bringing the GTO, though).

There are plenty of nice cars. Look out for the cam'd blue Formula WS6 and a white TT IROC. UMI Performance is there too. You'll see Ryan in a red WS6 'vert very shortly.

Yep as Steve said our shop is only 40 minutes from campus... I live just 2 miles from campus. If you guys ever need anything or want to check the shop out let me know and I will be glad to help.

If you see a red WS6 with black top, all noisy, cammed and wanting to stall that is me
