Checkin in from Oshkosh..
I always thought if there was no bracket for plates you didnt need the front ones
You sure see alot of vettes without them...
Oh well, its only a matter of time before I get stopped also.

I say if you don't need stickers, you don't need no stinkin front plate. I haven't seen one damn good reason for us to have a front plate.

Did we meet? I was the guy with the Buick wagon. She is basically stock a little intake tinkering and 87octane self tuning but stock original exhaust even. It ran repeatable 15.5 that night I was happy.
I plan to bring my Caprice to the next RSD it will be three tone, deer damage is mostly repaired but not repainted YET it is a little faster

Now is the time to REALLY be watching out for our speeding guys/girls... especially with them setting up the sting on speeders...

I saw a black ws6 turning onto 41 today, he has kind did a little wave/thumbs up thing, which was cool it's been the first time anyone with the same type ( camaro, firebird, corvette ) to even look at me.

I still think we need to have an ls1tech WIR night...
