Red face Arctic Squirrels!?

Hello!

My name is Paul and Im new to the site(thats pretty obvious huh?) I own a 2000 SS and I have always loved corvettes and Camaros. My dream is to own a 63 split window corvette. Im really into street style racing. Im not looking to turn my SS into a pro drag car but Just into somthing I can play with and kick a little *** out on the road. Im also in the US Army and serve as a Paratrooper. Im getting ready to leave for Iraq(Or so they tell me...) Im going to be living at fort cambell kentucky soon. As of right now or atlest for the next 30 days im in Alaska.

Welcome to the site Paul. Is your SS in Alaska with you? Can't imagine a Camaro feeling "at home" in Alaska. If you wind up staying at Fort Campbell very long, just scoot on down to Knoxville. You can cruise around with me in K-Town.

Watch your six when you get to the desert, man.

That is funny Do they have white fur instead of brown?

Welcome to the site.

Maybe you could take a photo of your car near a sign that says something about Alaska on it, to document this rarity of a Camaro in Alaska
