I've wanted to try and put together a 3rd gen meeting for several months but couldn't get enough interest. Maybe if we can get one or two more before cold weather one can be put together next year.
Real Street Drags. It's a class that utilizes cars in pretty much stock form. I'm not real sure of the rules as far as what is allowed but they run in the 10-12 sec bracket. If I'm not mistaken they have to use a street legal tire, 4 link car or tubbed cars. They may be able to use a power adder but again I'm not real sure about it.
If you visit www.brewcitymuscle.com there are some guys that go quite often and even compete.

sorry about it but i wont be abel to meet anyone at wendys. I got a ton of essays and projects to do today. if some of you do go there should be alot of other cars to look at. i might be abel to go next week.
I got there just before 6:30 and I didn't see anybody there. No big deal, I wasn't expecting anyone to be there when I got around.
Hey IEatRice4dinner, where do you go to school at?

fair enuf! hey guys what does it mean when your fuel pump relay makes noises with no keys in the car? my fuel pump wont start and the relay checks out fine? the relay also heats up pretty bad if i try to start the car but the car wont start.

Hey guys, if your interested, the MFBA ( midwest f-body assoc.) is having a fall cruise on the 18th. IT will kick off somewhere around Rockford Ill, and end up in Janesville.
They have 2 cruises a year one in the spring and one in the fall. It's a big time usually aroun 35-40 f-bods mostly fourth gens, though I know of 2 thirds and one second gen that will be there.
For more info go to www.mfba.org the events section will have it postedd there will also be more info in the bulletin board area under events. Hope to see you guys out.

I got some slicks for the backs 27x10.0 hoosiers. I still haven't got front tires yet so I haven't bothered about ordering lugs or caps.
I started another project, sound system. I should have my subs in next week if I get lucky. 2 18" Kicker CompVR subs and 2 JBL 1200.1 amps should be pounding
The block is at the shop now. They've tanked/boiled, flux'd it, bored/honed, it isn't quiet right on one of the holes in the top. We're gonna look into that but hopefully it's still good. I'm getting itchy to slap the 383 together and get the slicks on the car to see how it does.
Hopefully after the subs, rims, gears, AC delete, and motor projects are done I can start on the exhaust project.
i feel that my car is a never ending project too! i found a sweet deal at one of my local shops i can get a 3" borla exaust system for $310 installed not stainless but sweet deal anyway. and im still battling full length or shorty headers.

Shorty headers, Hooker catback.....you know what I have!!!...like that!!
Oh, and RED stripes on a black car!!
I have a long post going over the combo I'm trying to figure out for my 406 on the board. It's here:
wow! this really is hard to pick the stripes everybody seems to like somthing different ok maybe this will help. i dont want lots of looks from cops but i want lots of looks from chicks, mustangs,imports,and show judges
Sounds like you need to have someone start photoshopping for ya. Wish I had the talent I got the program but no books to teach myself (like 60 bucks for a good refrence).
Originally posted by BLUE 86 T/A what is photoshoping??????
photoshop is a program that allows one to modify pix. In your case it could be done to show different paint schemes and stripes. You can do about anything with photoshop you can imagine. Add people to pix or remove them put heads on diff. bodys.
The guys at brewcity muscle have a few post going with photoshop and they are hilarious.
Anybody going on the fall cruise this weekend?
Scoty
I wanna go on that fall cruise but I got alot of other stuff going on this weeked. Need to fix the exhaust on my truck, and i have alot of school work.But at least it looks like they have some really nice weather for it. Well maybe next year I'll make it out there, its always seem like next year for everything for me.

hi all, im glad to see some people in my area with 3rd gens! i live in Zion and for those of you who dont know where that is, its almost on the border of WI and IL right behind winthrop harbor. id love to get together and just cruise or something. Who all would be willing to meet on the 26th of october? I say that late just so everyone has enuff time to get prepared and what not. BTW, how old is everyone on here? Im 17. And where would you all like to meet. I am thinking the Spot just because thats the only place i know how to get to, lol.
hey whats up! welcome! as far as the get together i dont know if i can make it cause my car is not together yet but good luck getting everbody else together we have not been able to meet up in one place yet but i know there are a few really wanting to meet others including me. o-yea what do you think about the stripe qwestion mentioned earlier? im stumped
well as far as ur stripe situation... if its a camaro.. stripes are ok. if its a TA id say no. TA's need one good solid color. well ive always liked black with white stripes. hope that helps u in ur decision. so how old is everyone and is the 26th sounding alright for now for anyone?
im 23 but i will be 24 next month and thanx for the stripe info i agree with you that t/as dont look as good with stripes but thats probably cause i dont see alot of them with em
this is so cool!!!!!!!
cant figure out and my girl and friends dont help much
