I know other GTO guys are out there....I see you almost everyday...some of you more than once. But I don't want to limit this thread to just goats since I've seen quite a few F-bodies and Vettes running around town. Who's all here?

Well i guess its just the 2 of us out here. In the summer i see a few F-Bodys meet up at Taco Bell off Danville, and there are some old farts that meet up with their Vettes at First National by the mall. It would be cool if we could some LS1tech members to meet up though

I'm in Abilene and stationed at Dyess. Got the QSM 04' GTO if you've seen me around. I've spotted a few others on base and some more round town.

I've had the car since May right before I moved down here from Idaho. As far as I can tell, the only thing that's been done is the exhaust. I hope to put a little bit into it once money frees up. Going through a divorce so money's a little tight right now...

What about Al's barbecue on buffalo gap? Big parking lot, good food, and big dining area. Then we can cruise out from there if y'all want. Say around 2 on Saturday?
