I am going to sell my GTO. I know it sounds silly after I just got it built but after making a few passes in a 9 sec Ride, I am off to bigger and better things LOL! I will have a for sale add soon. Will be asking $26k obo. Cars never seen the nitrous and the (still uninstalled) parts will come w/ it. If someone hooks up the spray and gets it tuned it would be a 650+ rwhp car w/ even more torque. Shes already faster than most self-proclaimed fast cars on post off the spray. Mainly b/c shes built right! No trades for me. Need the cash to do next build. But like I said, for sale thread will be up in next day or two.

Thanks man, I was real happy with the way they turned out.

Direct link to the 'in-motion' pictures is http://wesweaver.smugmug.com/gallery/5585597_Lmtoh

Direct link to the still pictures is http://wesweaver.smugmug.com/gallery...42615396_uVjdF (he's got some older pics in this folder too but you'll be able to tell the new ones)

The new wal-mart on Gateway / JR Allen has a few good spots for night pics. And the road from that area towards Reynolds is good for the motion shots too.

Maybe I can come out next time there's a group of us going to the track and take pics on that road of all the cars on the way...
