Nasty I'm sure you've already answered this question but why did you get rid of the T/A?

I kept up on TWR but not that closely.

I went beyound the normal everyday driving of the vehicle.... always had to keep an eye on it when i did..... tried to be a race car and street car and was way beyond that in what i had.

I always had to ride bymyself on the weekends when we wanted to go out.... ie two cars going everywhere... my son and wife cant ride with me.

Never had the time to take it to the track and going to the track was a $2-250 day if i didnt break anything.

Still dont have the time..... ive been gone so much latley its not even funny at least two weeks of every month so far..... 2 months straight this time... gone right now.
Blew a head gasket and really went beyond my budget.. hadnt driven the car in over a yr.

Ill build another one some day.... i know what it takes LOL.

I wanted something i can drive everywhere and everyone can enjoy (my family)

I prob wont go much farther then a cam in the GTO.... and the other supporting mods... I have quite a few other hobbies also that i enjoy and could never do them and seeing the car always down and a huge $$$ pit just got me really down.

I do miss it...... but dont regret it.

Yeah man... putting the car back to stock. Then driving it until someone wants to pay me decent money for it. Tired of a project. Tired of a big cam w/ a light flywheel etc.

Want a C6 vert, but have to move the C5 first. No financing.
