Default Newb from Iowa

My name is "Stu" or so all my friends call me and I've been somewhat of a forum lurker lately so I thought I'd introduce myself. Although I don't really have any Camaro friends (I guess I'm like their anti-christ or something), several of my best friends have GTO's and I love the cars to death. I purchased my first real sports car last summer out of California and road tripped her back. Look forward to seeing some of you Midwest guys at the track next year here in Iowa. It's a 3.4L T67 supra running a 75 shot , hopefully getting into high single digits next spring on race gas. Built Auto.

Yeah I remember a black WRX that was riding around me. Me and my friend got all sorts of lost in Omaha, but we still had a blast. I got to meet another supra guy that I had talked to for the longest time. Wish my W-gate wouldn't have been stuck or I probably would've run a couple cars.

Generally most people at wrenches aren't my style. I'm friends with Tyler, he just bought a new white S13. I've had a lot of drama between me and Brett, the kid with the blue Mach 1. I really didn't know the guy and I heard through the grapevine he was talking trash. That and he "only races for cash" kinda made skeptical. I'm in Des Moines almost every weekend working on the car with my 1G friend out by the airport so if you ever wanna hang out feel free to throw a PM.
