Another local, cool.

Every time I see an F-body around the area with a driver I don't recognize I always wonder if it's someone I know from LS1Tech and don't even realize it.

Do you have an SS hood on your Z?... had seen a really nice looking silver one the other day.

The BP is like five minutes from my house!...would love to meet up with you guys but I'm working afternoons right now.

If any of you guys see me around the neighborhood, make sure and flag me down! You can spot my car fairly easy. I have the front plate mounted on the lower air dam/spoiler. (Hate how the front plate looks on our cars!)
