we just need to pick a place and a date and what were exactly doing and recruit some people to help with the set up and figure out if we have enough people to come to actually do this ill post some thing on craigslist in the next few days and try and find some more people interested
Like I have said before... come autocross. I see atleast one thirdgen drive by at every event but the person never actually comes in to check it out. IT IS SAFE TO COME IN... WE WONT BITE. It's free to come and walk around the grid and sit and watch. DON'T LET THE PERSON BY THE GATE SCARE YOU AWAY. On the 21st, what looked like a white Z28 drove by... who was it?
If we get together at GLD, let's do it on a Friday so I can get in for the cheaper price because of High School night. I graduated this year so this is my last summer to get in cheap on Friday.
And a shameless sale... anyone want to buy a MINT Firebird dash pad or refurbished Firebird map pouches? I have a few different styles and colors of the pouches. PM me.
Mike

I'm around Milwaukee; my family has three thirdgens. I've autocrossed my 82 a few times, and I've only been to GLD once with the 82.

I keep watchin this post for a definate time/place everyone interested can meet up. I know racing geek has been trying, and I applaud him for it...but I'm just not into the autocross thing myself.
We have all winter now to come up with some kind of central location, and I'll keep checking in. My car won't be back on the street until early spring sometime. It's finally in the body shop getting painted for the first time since I've owned it (9 years)....
My car is getting parked at the end of the week so I can spend my Thanksgiving break working on it. Hopefully the pile of parts in the basement will start shrinking. lol
As I have said before, I will pretty much always be at the Milwaukee region autocross events for those of you that want to stop by. I'll post more about that next year when it starts again.
I'm down for some drag racing too. I'll get smoked by a lot of you here but at least I can get awesome reaction times. The only time (and the first time) I ever went, my reaction times were averaging out to 0.09 seconds. As of now, it doesn't look like my planned motor build/swap will be completed in time for next season but who knows what will happen in the coming months.
I also plan on going to Third Gen Fest and Car Craft Summer Nationals again next year. Maybe we can make the drive together? That would be cool to have a line of 10+ cars rolling through the gates at the same time.

What engine build are you planning? I knew it would just be a matter of time until you ditched the 305...and if you're not ditching it, I have a rebuilt one sitting on a stand in my garage with less than 5K on it - ran great when I pulled it. It needs a home. Also have a few other parts I'm putting up for sale soon- intakes, carb, distributors...PM me if you're interested.
I may show up to Third Gen Fest for the very first time next year. Maybe we'll meet up then.
I should have fresh paint by then too. I also plan to get new wheels and DR's by then hopefully. I'm hoping the tires will help with my lack-of-traction since I'm spinning through the first 2 gears and midway through third before it settles down. Gotta figure out how to get it to the ground.
