Ok so its not this Saturday but the next? Thats cool. It depends on what you want to do regarding the time you want to show up. If you wanna cruise down and let other racers see our F-Bodies then show up between 10-1030. If you want to go directly to the races they start at around 1130-1200. Id suggest meetin early around 10-1030 then cruising out.


And Taylor do you go to high school? If so which one? Im currently a senior at LQ.

Yeah I'm a junior at Palm Desert, and I think I have seen your car there at the races, were talking about in Palm Springs behind that wharehouse across the freeway correct? Thats a sweet looking LS1. Is it the WS6? Me and my buddy with his 69 SS were there last friday, pretty cool stuff. You see that black cobra loose to that Honduh, "shrugs." Thats cool you're still in highschool though, figured I would be the only one that young. I still should be able to attend, but not positive, I will be in Anaheim that day at my brother's graduation. I will most likely be able to come to the races, but not sure about meeting up in the afternoon. Do you ever go to the Cheveron in LQ on friday nights? Not sure if I have seen your car there or not..but I have seen those LS1's from Race Prep, look pretty sick. I went out to those grape fields or whatever way the **** out in buttville where everyone goes racing from the Cheveron, that sucked, cops were there in no time and I'm not going back there. Anyways, hope to see your car around town, Late.
EDIT-
I was reading your other posts and god damn, a 10 sec LS1! I definitely want to check that out sometime, its nice to finally talk to some muscle down here in the desert, seeing as we're so infested with the rice crowd. Whats up on June 18th at Cali Speedway? I have not made it out to the track yet, but really want to. All of you guys heading out there? That would be sweet, out of school and just shootin the ***** at the track. I will have some new rubber on by then too, these stock 245/45's are toast. Havent gotten any new wheels for some fatty drag radials yet, but some new BFgoodrich 255 KD's will help. Late,

-Andrew

Damn you PD guys, beat us last night at baseball . Lol anyway I have only been to the races out in "Buttville" in my car, seeing how it is relatively new. I do go to the LQ Chevron on Fridays, and I will be there this friday. The races out in Palm Springs are off the freeway, but behind the train tracks. Not sure its the warehouse one your talking about. Anyway those LS1's from race prep...thats the 10 second one. His name is Jason and he's my good friend. His car is down right now, putting in a new tranny. His is a Black WS6, mine is just a silver Bird. If we meet up the 21st then we can talk about a track day possibly. Try to make it down to Chevron Friday.

You get out after 5th period? Just noticed you posted at 2:32, lucky, I don't get out till 2:40. Can't wait for next year only having 4 or 5 classes. That was a pretty good baseball game, very close. I just called it "buttville" cause it was way the hell out in some farm fields..I didn't pay much attention to where I was going, just followed some friends. I didn't like it very much when I went, so I usually don't go out there, but the Palm Springs place I went to was much better, this friday you will have to tell me exactly where it is, maybe I was at some other races. I usually just follow all the ricers from the rite aid and see where they are headed. I am probably going to show up at the Cheveron around 10, so I will look for a Silver Firebird. Are you part of any of the "crews" that hang out there, I always see the "Untouchables" or some **** like that and wonder if they are all show and no go. See you at the Cheveron, late

I didn't quite want to use the terms "gay rice crew" just incase you actually were in some of that ****, but I see you are smarter than that, lol. Yeah for sure I will bring the Mach, its my only way of transportation, Daily Driver. I will just listen for that deep throaty LS1 sound, and find you guys. God damn I love the sound of a nice cam in those cars...later.

Haha, yeah me too, well no real performance mods. I went down to race-prep today to check things out, never been down there before, that place is awsome. All of the guys there are really cool and very imformative. I plan to get my car dynoed there for a base run in the next week or so. I usually see people do 3 runs to get an average, but they said only one would be good. Its $75 a pull, so im going to try for two or something. I could spend all day there..and alot of money...those Impala SS two of the guys have there (Jad and Bryan I think) are awsome. Late..
