Sure will, once I clean the car up. Wheels are shiney but the rest of the car is dirty.

I just saw his car in the flesh....BADASS. Those 18's are sweet and the BFG KDW's tread has got to be the best looking tread I've ever seen.

Oh hell, it's in Searcy? That's where I'm at. When you said tomorrow, did you mean Sunday, or Monday?

If Monday, are you going to be in Searcy for long?

That red car in the middle in the first pic sure is nice....I wonder whose that is .

The Pewter SS is 99ngc00....Nick. He just bought that car from one of Shane's buddies. It is very nice and is getting some LT's and TD's this week.

I also heard a rumor that a certain '02 Anniversary SS with a turbo 402 was prowling the streets today. Apparently, it was traction-challenged at 20% throttle. Hope you get it ironed out tomorrow Shane.

You know I'm playing Zack....8 tenths from 65-90....I think we both know the outcome is a forgone conclusion. But what the hell, it'd be fun to see the new paint on your bumper as I'm getting my *** handed to me and then some!

Hey Bene, get you a Spring Kit on that and lower it a little, then it will look hot. I got the Eibach Pro Kit on mine, and the fenders are about an inch above the tires in the front, and about 2" in the back.

What's the word.....looks like the weather might just hold for Saturday. It'll be a little chilly, ~50 or so, but I haven't seen any forecast for rain......yet. I'm pumped, anyone else!

Shane called me, the turbo 402 is alive and well. Chances are looking good that we might see the beast in action. But I also heard that he was gonna have to limit the boost to 5#'s due to a little traction problem. Regardles, I hope you make it Shane.

Yea, hopefully the weather will hold. Looking forward to making some fresh runs. Need to get it checked tune-wise too. Hopefully Rhino can meet me there if it all goes through......that's a HUGE if.

well the word is here I am not going to make it. Guys I tried really hard but just not going to be ready. I need new springs for the front on my car due to adding weight for FI stuff. The front is sagging to much it is setting about 2 inch to low causing the turbo not to return oil. Which in turn is causing it to smoke because it cannot drain back to pan. It is gravity feed system. I tried but will not be able to make it this time.
