Default new guy from ct

From CT, just bought a 02 Trans Am this past May from the original owner. Only modifications to it are a SLP lm2 catback and SLP filter. Was going to grab a SLP Lid and JAAM intake next week. I also have a 02 v6 Camaro, solid daily driver for the past couple years. Lookin forward to stayin round here and trying to pick up what new information i can, thanks.

Every year I've wanted to go and never made it. If you're gonna be back up on a Thursday night, swing by if ya want. I know a couple people that went to central, one might still be going, Nick Ripa, had an Extreme pickup that was pretty done up for a while.

If ya know him tell him JL said hi, you're both welcome to swing by any Thursday you're in the area. I'm right up by the "nunnery" in New Britain, if ya know where that is LOL.

Yeah, I'll shoot you a PM if I can stop by, thanks again for the invite! I don't think I know Nick, I'm only in my second year at CCSU. You should definately come down to the shows, usually have a nice turnout at both of them.
