Default Kinda new around here, sorta...

i know some of you from other sites and stuff though. i post as the same username on LS2.com as well. and some of you other folks i know from years gone by, like NufNuff and a few more i'm sure.

anyway, i'm Ryane (i'm a female, yes...) and i live in Lancaster, SC - it's about 25min south of Charlotte, NC. i live with the enemy - he has an 03 Cobra and a 96 GT. my car makes 417 to the wheels with heads/cam, but i'd rather go to car shows than the track - too much tears up when you drive it hard. and ask me how i know, i've spent about $4500 in repairs and upgrades since february. i dont need anything else breaking any time soon.

anyway, here's the car...
















look forward to posting some more around here with everybody.

Looks pretty good... are you planning on lowering the car? hint hint


Welcome to the site, this is a very good place compared to the others (LS2.com, LS1.com) when you need a quick answer for a technical question or if you want to buy parts cheap. Good luck with the '00... and the enemy. ~Joshua

i've been a member here for a while, just dont post much. i hope to change that soon.

on a side note, is there an off-topic forum on this site?? am i just missing it??

Yeah, it's called "The Seat Stays Up."

You can find the link to it if you enter "The Racer's Lounge." They have now stopped that forum and made it hyperlink to SSU.

It's a guy type site, they wanted to keep this site more car-technical so they moved the major chit-chat section to SSU. ~Joshua
