Ron, I like you're car. I will gladly park next to you anytime! Outlawz, I responded to your post and asked you about a exhaust. Cancer, love the V, you have one hell of a clean ride. Sorry you had to ride, I looked around and you were pulling off. Soundeds sick under WOT, not a whole lotta rasp. That corsa sounds good!
No problem, it was nice to put a face to the sigs. I was thinking we should go to Silver Dollar Raceway in Reynolds, Ga. at least once a month. It's about a 40 min drive from Columbus. What do you guys think? I'm always down to hit the track!

Got 1 more thing done. I will need to go to the skills shop to do my ds safety loop, exhuast clamps, and pinion angle. Waiting on my brake fluid and finishing this wiring up. Going to start on the front springs tomorrow night hopefully.

Craig, I have to go to Texas next month for awhile. I want to get this thing running and tuned n/a. I need to borrow 2 of your small jack stands to do the front springs. Might pull them off and do them in your garage one day after work so I can use the impact. I want to set the line lock and waste some money.

I got run off the road yesterday and hit a guard rail tweaking the right front rad support, shifting it to the left. I was hit on the left side damaging the entire left side witch sent me straight into the guard rail damaging the right front completely and the right rear quarter. I'm pretty sure the frame is bent because driving back to the house the car was pulling hard to the left. The engine is fine, tranny is fine. I might be buying a 92 Z28 hard from a guy in Gwinnett, Ga. for $5500. The car is in mint shape. All I can say is WOW!!

Won't know until USAA finishes the investigation. The police officer gave me a warning ticket for improper lane change and she hit my car causing me to hit the guard rail. It's all good I'm going to Gwinnett, Ga to test drive a 92 Z28 hardtop tomorrow and if all is good the check should be in the mail next week.
