MIKE IS SLOW!!!!






















JMWY!!! We do need to get everyone back to the track for some runs!! Or I guess I should say everyone needs to get there cars back together and make it back to the track would be a fair statement being that I still need new tires also. And DAMNIT some body stop the rain so we can have a good night.

Anybody interested in going to Daytona Turkey Rod Run/Swap meet

We are trying to get clarification on whether newer Firebirds are allowed to enter the show, all camaros are welcome according to the registration page, $40 for all 4 days if pre registered, and includes passes for up to 4 people, otherwise admission is $15 a day Thurs - Sat, and $10 Sunday per person

We are also trying to find out about club participation so we can all park together if interested.

With show registration, you can come & go as you like during show.

http://turkeyrun.com/online_registration_2011.html

Would like to get a head count of definately going so we can get club passes reserved..

I went with a Denny's. Maybe a little pricey but I was going for the "never worry about breaking my driveshaft" idea.

I have their "1350 Series Nitrous Ready" setup. Plenty of 5k dumps on the spray through an M6, never a problem.

Central Florida Drive Shafts right here in Lakeland!!! I twisted my stocker like a pretzel and had them build me a nice 3" steel shaft and no worries. If I remember it ran me just over $200.00 for the complete drive shaft.

+1 on Central Florida Driveshaft, just off Combee Rd. They do all my truck shafts. Good guys and usually quick turnaround.
