I'm here. There's fbodyeurope.org but so far what I've seen nobody really gets together. There are a couple cool guys on there though.The bullshit height restrictions on cars here that don't seem to apply to anyone except me pushed me over the edge to sell my car. As soon as I get the title in the mail it's gone. Where are you going in Germany?

They have some dumb *** rule that says Any metal part of the car has to be at least 11cm up off the ground or they fail it. My subframe connectors and my exhaust were too low. It's not in the version of USAEUR 190-1 ap C that is posted on the internet but according to them that is the old version and they are going by the new version. Nobody has ever heard of the rule until mine failed because of it.

Well if I read his post on fbodyeurope's site correctly he was referring to the height requirement from the bottom of his car to the ground (sfc's to the ground or cat's to the ground). They didn't even check that here where I am thank god. You could ask the tuning question once you get onto the site(europe f body site). I've heard that Ed from the HPFactory comes over from time to time to tune cars but I don't know about anyone else. That is also one big reason why I'm still waiting to do my big project till I can get back to the states.
