They started showing up reving their cars up and leave the place like a bat out of hell. Then the ******* idiots decided to to drift through the parking lot while cars where at the drive through. Cops showed up and told everyone to leave and not come back. I have ZERO respect for mustang owners because of **** like this. It's, your car is ****, I have flowmasters, a k&n, and a tune I will beat anyone. Then they get their beat, bigtime I might ad, and can't keep their mouth shut. Then it's the, I know someone who will beat you, after that. I met a small group of guys that understand what being a car guy is about. We help each other out and get along great. I am convinced mustang owners do not know what that means. The large majority swing on one mustang guys nuts. I'm just way to tired of the same **** coming out of their mouths. I would love for a new guy to show up, but if they can't act right and start talking **** and can't shut up once they get slaughtered then their is going to be problems. Plus, I assume your a mustang guy. I would love for the other ford guys to see you hanging out with gm owners. You could then witness the dumb **** we have to hear over and over. I'm sure your opinion would mirror mine. Come out, I promise you'll either be bored or have a good time. Sorry for the rant and shitty attitude but the sonic ordeal has me madder than cat ****, and cat **** gets pretty mad.
Some people make an *** of themselfs infront of others....I am not one of those persons...I am a normal Car Guy...that loves cars trucks bikes or anything that screams speed and power...Not to mention....my wife and I are very active in charity events and car shows...here local and south eastern..

As for those "others" that cause the problems in the parking lots and on the road...We...wife and I.....dont have anything to do with them...

As for the CCS crew, good bunch of folks..I am not here to protect..defend..or start anything with anyone...

We just and to hang out..

LOL, I know Matt. He's been banned quite a few times for the same thing, and not just on LS1tech. He goes by quite a few different screen names on here and other forums. I'm surprised that he hasn't made a post in this thread yet. He used to drive a turbo charged Z28. As far as I know, this isn't the first time that anyone has had problems with him. I haven't seen him around lately though. He lives down here but I believe he goes to school in Atlanta. Hopefully you get everything worked out quickly man.

Do you guys still meet up on the weekends? I came out there super late last night and hung out with some of my import buddies. There were a few Stangs out in the parking lot too but I didn't know any of them so I stayed on the other side of the parking lot.

Hey Martin HD-28, I'll try to see if I can find out anymore info about Matt for you. If you would like any special help, let me know.

well silverone stays out of these things but as a cop i must say sumthin...it sounds like y'all have a civil issue that needs to be resolved...no problem...that is what small claims court is for..."people's court" ya know...that is the method i would advise you to take...what you're saying on this public site could be used against you...OK I'll say it...it a court of law...heck someone else could go do it and you could be found criminally responsible by what you have typed for all to see...just advice...hell everyone hates being ripped off and $200+ is not pocket change...however, it damn sure ain't worth trouble with the law...

on a different note...i have had a weird desire for a firebird here lately...night need to get my money right and pick one up used...gotta get a t-top

There is a lt1 formula on post that would be worth picking up. It does need some work but you can get an awesome head and cam package for right around 2 grand. That will include getting the intake worked as well.
