What's wrong with your car? Maybe we will plan another meet closer to you sometime anyway.

I'm 16 years old...but I'm mature . 94Touring is older than 17/18. He's an engineer...so he's at least graduated college. How old are you Dan?

LOL, sorry. The etc basically means all the bolt ons. LT Headers, ORP, gears. I also have a set of forged weisco nitrous pistons, with valve releases in them. I have a custom ground nitrous cam that will be in tomorrow as well. The short block was built by More Performance in Charlotte NC. I had all new bearings, and everything done. The only thing that is really left untouched were the connecting rods, and crank. Though I did use ARP rod bolts. Maybe next summer I will do a stroker. I know that may seem like alot of mods for someone my age but needless to say I work my butt of all the time

Sorry forgot to post times as well. With my old setup I ran consistent 11.90s @ 118. That was with gears, lid, 100 shot, on 1.9 short times. I have no clue on the new setup, I ended up with a bad set of piston rings, and a few broke before the break in period was up. I have a converter coming, once that is in I am hoping for some mid to high 10 sec times on the 150 shot. If there are other questions I would be glad to answer then for you.

Thumbs up

OMG!!!!! That camaro is bad ***....I love it. My buddy has a 97 or 98 Z28 that is quick but not as quick as yours. Yeah man hit me up next time you come to the beach. PM me on here or e-mail me.

Speaking of Camaros my little brother is 15 and has worked all summer and still works on the weekends is looking at a 87 Camaro, it's only a 6 but not bad for a first car. We'll play around with it and get as much as we can out of it.

wow man...impressive LS1. I must say the 99 SS is my favorite piston driven car One of my dad's friends had a red one. He was forced to sell it when the rearend went out for the 3rd time (can you say lemon?). It was certainly a gorgeous car. I would love to have one. Too bad you cant make it to the meet. I'll post pics for you and hopefully you can make it to the next one.

Thanks guys for the compilments on my car. I wish I could make it down there. I may have the car back by then now but I have a dyno tune session scheduled for the 5th, so I can have the car ready for the Bristol Bash a few weeks later. If you guys are going to have another meet this year let me know and I'll make sure I come. I would love to see all your cars.

I don't do a whole lot if fishing, I live a block away from the Nags Head Fishing Pier but don't go very often. I don't have enough patience for fishing, but give a some beer and I'll fish all day

Cool stephen...keep us posted.

As to the fishing...I'm a bass fisherman...never done saltwater. I guess thats the redneck in me. I have a 25 inch largemouth on my wall that I caught in 8th grade, her name is Bessie (I have pics if y'all care ) Plus there are 6 ponds in my neighborhood, so its a quick fix for boredom. Back like in middle school all my (rednickish) neighbors said I was going to have my own fishing show someday. Now they say I'm going to drive/build race cars

Later y'all
Chris
