Default Hello from Dallas

Hi, this is my first post. I'm new, but not new to cars. I had a 1999 and a 2001 Trans Am WS6 back in high school. In Dallas there was a pretty large F body crowd up until about 2004, then it started getting cold. I worked part time for Fastech in Dallas, we had the first 10 second "bone stock" Camaro. The Camaro was purchased and in the same day we put a NX 380hp 2 stage dry/wet kit and some slicks and ran a 10.3. No exhaust, no K&N, nothing but a nitrous kit. Later we built the first 422 7.4 SS for a guy in Houston, that was in 2001 I believe. Anyways I sold my cars in 2003 and within the last couple of years I got a Ferrari 360 and a 348 and a couple of Porsches and slowly getting out of those and want to get into Corvettes. I'm been dreaming of building my dream car I wanted back when I was a teenager. Is that midlife crisis? I'm only 34. That was a rhetorical question. Anyways, wanted to say hello and introduce myself.
In the mean time, watch these 2 guys sword fight
