Took the t-tops off and went for a ride on the Parkway. Went all the way to Grandfather Mountain. Lots of nice cars out.
NL was driving....went through some tunnels, and of course he "gunned" it as we went through. lol When we came out of one of the tunnels there was a long paved area that ran several hundred yards along the road for a lookout site. There was about 20 people or so parked there. They ALL had turned and was looking our way as we came around the curve. Several had thumbs up in the air as we when by, lots of waves and shouts of approval. lol Fun, fun day. lol got to love the Mountains and bad cars!

 

lol sounds like fun. I hear ya on the beautifull day, unfortunately we spent it swapping brakes from one car to the other. Didn't get a chance to do the rears so Kelly's new car now has red front calipers and cross drilled/slotted rotors on the front. Also we washed the car, painted a few things and armoralled the interior. I think the car is too loud for her now so we may look at putting something different on for the exhaust. Possibly a stock catback for now while she's driving the car then when these houses sell and we get her into what she want's I'll put it back on

Too loud? Bet she REALLY dosen't like my car. lol A couple of years ago there is no way I would have had my car this loud either. Things change, and kinda grow on ya, you know?

 

Me and the wife spent the weekend in the N. Ga. mountains. Beautiful weather, great views. Did'nt see many nice cars. Bikes were everywhere. Life is great.

 

i did a little cruising around this weekend myself... very nice weather. hope it stays like this for awhile.

 

Sounds like fun. You'll convert poor old NL by letting him drive an auto. LOL...

 

Hey VTEC, you drive by Kevin Whitakers sat? I thought I saw your car.

 

Oh and Sly, what exhaust is on it?

 

Took the SS out for the fist time in over a week this morning on the way to the shop for a TQ & cam/ spring install on a Silverado(1st one) and parked in the shop, couple of Southern section peeps stopped by & the doors were open for brief moments at a time,by the time I got home my ride was almost completely yellow!! Damn Pine pollen LOL!!.

 

SLP Loudmouth and gutted cats.

Oh thanks, I understand now! LOL...

 

You gutted the cats? I was about to say, its not THAT loud but now I understand....

 

heh, yea that was me! i had considered pulling in there but decided not to when i saw how packed it was!

 

Sounds much better with the exhaust leak fixed too. She said she might like it that loud she's only driven it twice now, and once with the new exhaust so we'll see.

-Sly

 

You should have. There were some nice cars there. Oh and I was just messin with the header pics. Looks good man!

 

'Twas a beautiful day in TN. , too.

 

We got the SS out for the first time in six months and headed down to Lake Lure. Never made it up to Asheville. Third gear is still gone, and don't put it in fourth to deep or you won't get it back out. Going to start pulling the tranny out this weekend so I can finally get it running right. Though the car ran good and attracted alot of attention, which we all like

Its covered in polen now. That **** is to nasty.

 

i have the exact same problem with my trans right now. pops out of third unless you apply 50+lbs force to hold it in there, and 4th gear will grind both going in and out.
after fixing the original disengagement problem with the clutch, it seems to work alright at the track for some reason... lol

 

Hard to beat the Parkway especially with the T-tops out

 

I'm still waiting for the first good spring drive, a working diff would help.
