I'm on my third Camaro, first was a 94 A4 LT1 which I was able to build to run12.40@110, second was a 99 M6 LS1 which runs 11.70@120, and the newest edition which runs low 10's@140 with a M6. Glad to see you all gear heads even if your behind a desk..

The hardest thing with the current car is getting it off the line right. Once it's moving it's on a rail with 800+ RWHP. In the next couple of years I'm probably going to put a built 4L80E in it with the right converter and then yeah most likely run high 9's.

I got some questions for any one that wants to answer, well I notice allot of you are airmen and I would want to be on the water so maybe just the seamen. how do you like the CG? are you planing to re-enlist? hows life aboard those cutters? and how much do you all make? I'm a commercial fisherman right now but it just keeps getting harder and harder to make a living out there, and I'm usually too busy working when you guys board us to stop and chit chat about the CG. but I'm torn between the CG and the merchant marines, right now I'm still sort of leaning towards a tanker just cause I can pretty much choose my schedule and could still go scalloping until the quota is full, but I'm still undecided so could anyone share their expierences? maybe PM me so you don't clog up the CG thread ? tia
edit: also what could I start out at? I'm a mate right now on an F/V and have worked on the water for +4years.
