Also, gator's 99TA had mentioned about going up to REV XTREME because alot of people go up there and meet. Would anyone wanna do that over the summer or something??
Gonna be pretty busy but will do what I can. I may have to relocate to Sarasota for my employer very very soon. I did see another NBM SS on Fruitville road in Sarasota last week. (At my new employers apartment complex) Just like mine except it did not have the Chrome Z06's.

Please post what day (Sat or Sun) and around what time and I will do my best to stop in for a while.

My wife and I stopped in there Saturday night (04/09/05) right around sundown.
They had some very nice classics! Made me wish I still had my 72 Chevelle SS!

Just put some headers on today and love the sound, and performance. The downside is that it wreeks of exhaust and oil and since it is my daily driver I guess I'm just gonna have to go windows up from now on. Either that or just wear alot of cologne. I don't really feel like going into school smelling like exhaust everyday, but it is alot cooler with the headers on. I get almost everyone to look. Sunday at 4 is fine, I'll have some wings but I'm not old enough to be drinking yet. So i hope i'll see some of you guys there. Lemme know who all is coming.

Today is not a good day. High school sucks and I have to write a research paper. I really do wanna go though. I'll see what I can do about next weekend. This is always the most stressful time before exams come.
