Hell, the rain came through right as I was getting off work, so I didn't go, but that only means I gotta pack twice as much fun into tonight!

round 10pm or so.

I hope I can make it. If not, my car is too fast for you guys anyway though, so it will be a major relief to you all if I don't show up.........


























Just kidding My car is slow Fear the stockness LOL. But seriously, I'm going to try and make it. I may need a lift Jeremy. By the way, I've seen a lot of nice cars driving around today. It could be a pretty good turnout tonight.

A dissapointing holiday weekend turnout indeed. Oh well, I guess I'll just install my new exhaust, and leave the slicks on for next time.

Disappointing indeed Jeremy. I still had a good time just hanging around though. That dude Justin looked bored out of his mind, lol. Maybe next time we'll have a better turn out. It sucks that you're leaving for a few weeks Karl. From what I've heard from my tuner buddies, there were a few people out there who thought that you drove a regular V6 firebird, lol. Well if you guys can think of anything to do, be sure to let me know.

PS
If you need any help with the downpipe just let me know.
