Lets get this started again, I am from Wausau, WI, just wondering if there are any new guys/girls from the state. And what are everyones plans when they get the cars out again. I know I am going on this years Power Tour, hopefully the long haul as long as I get my transmission replaced by then and hopefully hit the strip a few times as well a long with some local shows.

I'm in Madison. I'm planning on hitting a couple cruises/car shows and head down to the track a few times. Can't wait to see how my car performs on boost.

I was thinking the same Projectcamaro I have talked to you before on here and just love what you have been doing to your car in my opinion the best looking car on the sight and to my amazement keeps getting better. I am in the works of a new transmission and converter right now as my second gear took a sh*t on me but hope to have it up and running again for the summer. Next is going to be a Sonoco hood for sure, I just keep running into other problems that take my funding away from this. But yeah we definitely need to set something up for a track day or other gathering sometime this year. Idk if it would work better by you and see if some IL guys want to join or what but something needs to happen. Maybe the Dells area idk up for options.

We should throw out a few dates as possibilities and see what works best for the majority. Perhaps throw up a poll..?

Newb in Monroe - I am just starting a LS1 swap in a '99 Miata. If you guys allow a rice burner shell with Chevy guts, I am in. Otherwise I could show up in my '67 Mustang if you prefer...
