No that was my buddies car, he recently sold it and got a black 99 ws6 6 speed.
I did have a green convertible formula though.

Well not in Tuscaloosa but in Gardendale you have FTPerformance. And in Pelham you have speedsouth. Either of those places will be able to get you setup.

Me and a friend drove up to Oxford last weekend for some fun runs last weekend. Good times. Not a damn thing going on in Bham as far as racing goes.

Is there a story behind the wreck or did it just get away from him?

On a side note does anybody watch Top Shot? Gary the Homeland Security guy could be firefightergib's brother! That's who I'm pulling for.

It was nice meeting you, your brother and your buddy with the Gran Sport. I should have my car running in about a month.... hopefully everyone wont be in full "winter mode" by then.

When I get my car running there is supposed to be a couple of guys from pell city that want to run me. Two Cobras, a GT and a 240, is all that I know of so far. You and your buddy might want to ride back down for that.

I believe the owner said he was rear ended after leaving BAMA. It was a pretty nice ride. I seen it at Steele, once or twice.

Sounds good, I'll have to add some tires and turn the jug on. Also will have 2 trucks that will prob come up to that will give everyone a good run for their money.

Cool!!! Hopefully I can get all the little stuff finished and make sure all of the bugs are worked out soon. Did you ever get your six speed fixed?

I dont remember the specifics, but it hit him hard enough to push him into his buddies truck that was in front of the Camaro.

Hey guys-

Thought I'd throw this up here, as I have a few of these left and thought I'd get rid of them.

I've wanted HID's in my own personal car and a retrofit project for my airplane, so I drew up some plates and had them water jet cut. It was going to cost me the same to have a handful cut for me and a few friends as it was going to cost to have way to many cut, so I figured, I'd have too many cut.

These require no modifications to the stock headlight buckets. Designed for Hella 60mm low beam projectors.

The brackets:



Mounted.







If you're local and can pick up them, $55 for 2, $95 for 4.. I'm in Florence.
