Default Another Texan

Hey, I am another native Texan wanting to go fast, who doesnt. Currently I have an 04 Chevy Silverado, which I am going to do many things to, currently in the process of getting some long tube headers and such. I am like a sponge when it comes to making anything I own faster. Hell, I fly jets for the military, I wonder why I like to go fast. Maybe with the help here I can make my truck feel like I am flying. Only time I have felt that was with my friends old firebird that had a 427 with a blower. Sounded weird, but it was fast. Well, I am glad to be here.

The reason that there are so many texans on the boards is because Texas occupies virtually a quarter of the nation! J/K...Really, Texas is huge though. It took me almost 8 hrs to get out at El Paso from here in San Antonio driving at a good pace.

Enjoy the boards!
