Default New guy from Bama

Whats up everyone,

New to this forum but not new to ls1/lt1s. I live in Southern Alabama, Ozark. I love everything about cars and love learning stuff I didn't know. I work at Advance Auto Parts and if the automotive industry was not doing so poorly, I would be going to school to be a mechanic but attending school right now to get my A&P certification, to work on aircrafts. I'm only on one other site, pfomustangs.com and decide to be with my kind of car people. Here is some pictures of my current and past camaros/firebird.

Current Camaro, 2001 z28. Auto but givin to me by my dad because he got tired of me complaining about selling my other Camaro. He put aftermarket headlights and tail lights and do not like them so will be converting back to stock and slp exhaust.


Past Camaro, 2000 z28 6-speed. Stock and clean. 8.8 in the 1/8th on slicks.


Past Firebird, 1997 formula Auto. slp exhaust & slp intake system. 9 flat in 1/8th.

shoot, then you probably seen me running out at friday night lights out. My friend layce was the announcer, she usually went over the intercom saying that I wanted competition because I use to mess with her about her mustang. Honestly man, I have no clue what it would run, never ran with an auto there or had any power adders.

who all goes? i might know some of them and whats your name? Im thinking while its still cold out, im looking into some headers and a QTP electric cut-out to get the sound I want, then when it warms up, start going to suspension work and stall.
