No car but this spring my truck should have an LS1 in it.

Haven't really been to any shows lately. Just checking in to see who's from around here.

I have a friend who also lives in Beloit that is building up a 84' (I believe) camaro that has a built 400sb, TCI trans, and custom rear end (not sure who its made by).
Its white with black racing strips and cowl hood. Just had the outside repainted recently and nows he's doing the interior. He goes to some shows, not sure of all of them.
Maybe you've seen him around?

I'm from Milwaukee but I don't like to admit it. I hate my car sitting in a garage 7 months of the year.

I am from Wausau and have a few friends here with Trans-Ams, and another with a Mustang Cobra. Planning on making a trip this year to a dragstrip somewhere, also planning on doing some of the Power Tour. Anyone else who is doing that.

None I know of in WI. Speed inc in chicago is the closest I know of. They do good work and will do a mail order tune for cheap.

I heard Drop Fest was there last year, didn't know about it but if it comes this year I'll come..

I have to say man, I like your TA except for the rims and the GS stripes, otherwise it looks sick

guys theres a closer place then chicago its a sponsor on this site to its. finish line performance. Website www.flp2win.com. I ordered exhaust and lid through them, great customer service, got my stuff the day after they got it in. I talked to them about tuning they do a very good tune for 550.00 dont let that scare u though because u get what u pay for. They also have a really good transmission specialist, so they could put a tc in and tune it.

Well I actually live in Kronenwetter, over by the Ceder Creek Mall. I went to Green Bay last year for the Power Tour but did not do the long haul from Texas, would like to this year, but don't think I will be able to afford it, but we will see as the time gets closer.
