Default New guy from GA

I have some friends from other boards on this site and even though I don't quite fit car wise here I figured I would join cause I like learning. Anyway yeah from GA. I'm currently a student at GA Tech majoring in business management. I've grown up around cars (learned to drive well steer in my neighborhood on my dad's lap in his 62 vette). My brother had a few Camaro's (V6 vert, t-top SS, SS vert) and I really liked em all. However, when it came time for me to get a car I went the other way. Onto the car... I have a 2003 Cobra vert. (yes came prepared with my flame suit for joining) that is very highly modified. Pretty much all thats left of it from stock is the block,body, and dash. All the suspension is changed (including a solid axle swap for that stupid IRS), motor is rebuilt, supercharger is gone (you'll see what for in the pics if you haven't looked already), etc... Anyway here are some pics...





















Build is still going on and should be done in the next few weeks. It is a custom twin 61mm kit. I'll post numbers or whatever later. Anyway not here to start any drama or anything like that. Just here to learn and observe another part of the car scene.

Thanks guys. The wheels on it currently are the CCW's (second set). I still have the HRE's (first set) though. The CCW's are actually for track tires (for road racing) just put the tires off the HRE's on em while the HRE's were getting repaired (dang goodyear store). I should have the car back in a few weeks so I'll post more then. Won't have final numbers then cause I'll still have to break in the new motor before I can get a final tune.
