Default Minnesota Owners

Hey Everyone!

Been looking around this forum trying to find people from Minnesota but haven't had any luck so I've decided to create my own thread here to invite all of the LS1 owners out there in Minnesota a place to chat, talk, ask questions, and meet people from our state.

To start off tell us what you have and where you're from!

Nope, this car won't see the track. Lots of spirited driving, but I don't plan on abusing it. Besides my buddy has a souped up camaro that he will let everyone auto x.
