Hahaha.

His car was bone stock at the time, thus it had, "no *****"

He has since graduated to "Cody Ray"

"Ray" may or may not actually be his middle name. I like it though. Has a good ring.

And wayne hasnt said anything in yrs probably
I'm still here and even though I only post up every now and then I do check in every day or two just to keep up with you guys. Some of you know my dad, and know we have always raced, hunted and fished together. If you seen me at the track, he was there too. He had a serious health issue and as soon as I get him beat back into shape we will be back out there. All of our LS stuff has just been sitting needing to be put back together for months. Both cars are not far from being ready to go again. The facebook thing is out for me also. I have a wife and two daughters and Facebook causes too much drama around my house

I can understand your opinion and also predict it ahead of time as well. No biggie to me, people are just different. I got three kids at home man, that day of running the roads is long gone. And ya know, it's all good. Anyone who goes from being single or having a girlfriend to having a wife and multiple kids is gonna go through some priority changes in their life. I don't hold where you are in life against anyone. Hell I've been working on and off for a year and a half on the current project that's sitting in my garage because of budget issues for the owner. As far as "doing stuff", I pretty much eat, sleep, and breathe these cars daily....without exception. Ask anyone that knows me well and they will tell you of all the LSX parts I buy weekly and/or tools to work on these cars with. And, I wrench just about every chance I get on something, but mostly LS related. Some of the more seemingly boring LS guys around here are the ones who are turning wrenches the most and have the most knowledge built on experience. They have earned my respect through their dedication to these cars and this hobby. So, I don't really consider them boring. I've met some of my best friends on this thread, so it will always get my love. If you think though that only the guys coming to hang out all the time are the only ones with real cars or a real passion for these cars, you're mistaken. I told TA Chris just earlier tonight I'd setup his 9 inch for him for free if it would save him some money, I was drilling Todd at the track about tuning questions because I been busting *** to learn how to tune because I promised Johnny I'd tune his car for him, and told Josh R just the other day he could come over and we'd drop his tranny if he needed to.

I knew you'd be working on something new soon. This is the longest I can ever remember of you not showing some new car/project you just bought

Hammer, meet nail! I really couldn't have said it better myself.

I've had the worst time trying to find a time to meet to let you borrow these books for tuning. If you want, I can leave them at my dad's shop that is very close to Hilton's old house and you can swing by and pick them up whenever you have time. I'm certain they will help.

Sorry... we didnt know LSX Monsters would grow like it did. At first it was just me and Bud, Cody G(Cold), Cody A., and a handful of others who know who they are. It was never meant to compete with anything on tech. I have been reading this thread for 3-4 years. I used to read just to see what the locals like Blue98Z were up to on the sneak.

If it isnt your thing that is fine with me, but so far there have been some REALLY good deals come through LSX Monsters and I'm sure thee are several on here that will attest to that. I still get on here to check and see whats going on, but LSX Monsters is extremely active. It has turned into a local version of this. I blame the members. Thank you all.

Put the Tick master in over the weekend. Went out saturday and put some fresh gas in the ol girl since she's pretty much been sitting since november and then went and rowed some gears. I must say, it was nice to rip the gears again or just drive it like normal. Definitely worth the money, but it still hurt the ol wallet lol.

Hoping the weather will be nice for the 15th. Would like to make a few passes if the ol 10 bolt will hang in there. A 9" will be back under it before long with a good DS, so I can go play whenever I want and as hard as I want...............well, as hard as the nittos will let me haha.

Did my 40 hours in 2 1/2 days, then worked in the garage for 12 hours when I got off. Been up for 35 hours. Yikes.........But there is soon to be one more LS powered car roaming the streets. One of these days I will fix mine.
