Street legal, DOT tires, & mufflers are the only rules

They use the mph to qualify for the event and usually if your 90mph or above you've probably made it to the quick 4
better make that 100mph instead of 90 lol. competition is going to be awesome next year. Anyone doing any big changes this winter?

I got rid of it for the price I want and the new owner got his "dream car". I was pretty depressed going to Josh's bonfire seeing a few of the guys' fbodies and corvettes though

Not 100% sure on what I'm getting next. I've gone all over the place. 00-02 WS6 (although not sure if I want to get into another Fbody), 99+ C5, 06+ C6 - contemplated selling the Eclipse also and getting a G8 GT or LS2 Goat as a DD. Idk. Might end up waiting a few years until I'm graduated as I'm too busy most of the time to enjoy an actual toy

DICK! Lol, thankfully I rolled up in the Grand Prix and parked out front (American car rule, right?)

The bonfire was awesome btw! Next year definitely commands more bombs

(see website for details)

(Dang i sound like a salesman........)


i might be there trying to get the trans am further in the 7's

Thanks! I didn't do any detailing for the cruise, knowing we were heading to a dirty field. It was a great turnout & weather! I got a good burnout in, hoping it pops up on YouTube.

I've been in the garage buffing it tonight, heading to Indy for LSx on Thursday.

Welcome!


Wish I could have made the cruise to the woods! A couple of us are heading to CFR on Saturday if anyone is interested in tagging along!
