Sounds good to me. Would be nice to just see another BOM car let alone race one lol. Not many GTO's or fbodys down here. What mods do you have on yours?

The list is long, but to keep it short and sweet.
Full suspension, exhaust, mild cam, 3600 stall. Drive shaft, inter stubs, and shafts go in next week.

Believe it or not, there are a few BOM's in WA. Heck I went to PPP year before last. There were 4 of us. As it is, it's weird seeing one let alone 4. LOL.

mine is a 226/234 113LSA didnt give me the lift when I talked to him. I ordered my cam over a month ago. Called him last week and he said he hadnt got the specs to comp to have it ground yet been busy at the shop he said. I very rarely see any GTO's around Spokane here and I have only seen one other BOM and that was 2 years ago before I had my 06. Before I traded the 04 away last fall I had the BOM, the yellow 04 and my cousins black 05 in my shop. That was kinda cool have all 3 years in one shop

That is a terrible 60 ft. Their track prep must be garbage

Of course it is. It's the beginning of the year and I'm sure the cold weather didn't help too.

2.4? I know PIR doesn't have the greatest track prep by any means. But a 2.4 60'? If the track has gotton that bad, maybe I'll just keep my PIR "license" money and keep my track time at Woodburn.

Well I've been to both and I hit my best time at PIR. At woodburn all I could get was 13.1's.. I pretty sure it's to early to go. I'm going to try to hit up both tracks again this year. I need to find another motor pretty quick too. Eathier a LS2 or a LQ4-9.

Pir this year seems to actually prep the track cause the track is hooking.
