nope but a guy name victor just came to our dealer from courtesy i believe. I used to race with martin... it's a lot of fun but I was sick of spending $900 for a pair of rear tires that didn't even last me 3k miles lol

I saw a black camaro SS with SOM checkered racing stripes today in Pensacola on 98 turning onto 72nd. It was clean and sounded great...really wanted to compliment your car but I got stopped by a red light. Not even sure if the owner posts on these forums, but just in case big props for a great looking car.

Saw a white Trans Am with red stripes on the hood, blacked out tails and ceta mod on Argyle blvd headed toward Blanding around 4:40pm Wed afternoon. Had an aftermarket WS6 hood and a front lip on the bumper. Looked to have aftermarket wheels too.

Saw a black TA with black wheels on Argyle today around 5pm heading toward Blanding. Also saw a silver Z28 on Blanding headed north toward 295 right after that. Man, Im seeing em all over lately. I may have to start driving the SS to work instead of the damn camry haha
