Default Newbie from Tampa

Hey folks Tom from Tampa Florida I have a 2000 z-28 red with automatic trans. It’s currently in the garage being upgraded with new suspension , interior and LS3. My other vehicles are a 2018 Wrangler JK and 2016 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack. Resting besides them is my 2017 Harley Streetglide special. Hope I don’t offend anyone but I also have a passion for guns.

Welcome. My son is stationed in Tampa. He knows quite a few of knowledgeable people in that area. One of the best tuners, everyone at Cam Motion etc. Also BMR is not too far from you. Glenn at BMR is an awesome guy to deal with as well.
My son goes to as many car meets he can just to hang out. His camaro is back home here in Ky but if you see a lowered short-bedded duramax or a pristine 99 impreza, thats him

Funny you mention GLENN at BMR I stopped there last week to discuss Front and rear suspension you are right he's a great guy. I'll be back soon ordering rear suspension. I'll keep my eye out for a lowered duramax you don't see many around here.

He's only one of 2 shortbed lowered 2wd Dmax's with a ZF6 trans in the country (that we know of). So you'll know when you hear him lugging around in low gear.
