They are mostly from Holiday Beach, 2 of em have KBs and the other 2 have ported blowers(1 with a little jug). All of them are pretty close buds of mine and all have ran in the 6.xx zone. BTW, I am from Tuscaloosa.

Yeah, the young guy with the silver Z-28. Was trying desperately to break 12's the last night I was out there. I've got 346 in the upper right of my windshield.

It ought not be a problem now... if they prep the track well enough.

John

We love Millbrook, its quite and away from the crazyness of Montgomery. Our neighborhood is nice and pretty quite. We have a nice double car garage for the F-bodies to sleep in. One neighbor commented he liked us already b/c we have 2 GM products.

The modding has already begun in the garage, friend of mine swoped interior's with me, so now I have all charcole interior, instead of that tan crap. He's actually selling his '97 T/A so if anyones lookin for a F-body let me know.

We are going to order the clutch for the SS here in a few weeks, I've got a hook up in NC that I'm getting parts from,

I was hoping to be at MMP on the 11th, but I doubt my MT ET's will make it by then. Tryin to wait till Clint gets the SS back up to par. Or it will have to stay on the side lines

Our friend Eric you remember had the Black Z28, well its Blue now, with the SS spolier on the back, he's chopin at the bit to get back to the track for some times. hehehe.

Maybe we'll see ya there sometime this month.

I remember you. I was thinking your car was black because of your username.

A few of us will be at MMP on the 11th. You should try and make it out there.

I'm 90% sure I'll be out there. HOPEFULLY I'll have a set of DR's by then, so I can hook. I think that if I can hook, mid 12's are in the cards.

Greenfire, JNorris, I'll see you guys on the 11th at MMP for sure ( barring any bad weather *crosses fingers* ). I've got a pair of Nitto DR's on the way, and I REALLY want to see 12's.

jcfreak: Is your truck pewter? I swear I saw it in Montgomery one day. It was on the Eastern Bypass by Home Depot. It was kinda hard to miss, with the STS stickers and all...
