Default My first LS1

In the form of a 2000 Firebird Formula A4. 120k miles but looks like a 40k mile car. Gears, exhaust, lid, etc.. Runs pretty darn good and gets pretty decent MPG.

Not a Firehawk guys ( that I know of anyway ), just has that decal for some reason. Car ran good today, at the 1/8 mile "Flashlight Drags" I took down my friends cammed 6sp ws6 on street tires, my friends 06 stalled/cammed GTO on MT drag radials, a 6sp C6 vette with street tires, and a supercharged 99-04 Mustang GT on MT drag radials. Car runs great!

Nice meeting you too !
