Default I'm not sure how I managed this, but . . .



I made the September cover of GM High Tech Performance!!!

I can think of a quite a few badass cars that deserve a cover spot, but I couldn't be happier.

I really wanna thank Justin @ GMHTP. Had a blast at the photo shoot at Gainesville Raceway. Also thanks to everyone that helped me out on here while I was building kit and asking all kinds of random question. And to give credit where it was left out in the article, Jeremy Formato put a great base tune on the car and fixed some major pcm issues prior to me tuning it myself.

The write up is great and there's some really badass cars in the issue, I recommend picking one up
