U dayton is my school

Amherst is my home

grimesjm1 · 01-29-2002, 01:45 PM

Malvern, Ohio Here!

JPrevost · 01-30-2002, 12:42 AM

Columbus, going to OSU for school. This town sucks. Jegs is down the street and still the 1/4 miles is SO far away.

lt500r55 · 01-30-2002, 01:33 AM

just outside of toledo

Project: 85 2.8 bird · 01-30-2002, 08:02 AM

like my info says, dayton for now.

robertg · 01-30-2002, 12:21 PM

Jprevost, I agree, Columbus sucks. Too big, and no action! Up where I live, in the Youngstown area, we have a road course , a 1/4 mile drag strip, and summit racing all within an hour of where I live. Otherwise, there's nothing out here (I live in BFE)

I'm from a little town called Shelby here. Third gens are a big thing in this town. Most are camaros though

MDv6man · 02-01-2002, 09:34 AM

I grew up in Allentown and went to school @ UD. Also worked for the UDPD after graduating. Now I'm in Maryland

robertg · 02-01-2002, 04:58 PM

I'm originally from Shelby. I moved after first grade (1989) and haven't been back much since. I still have family in Mansfield and Bellville.

Third gens are popular down there? My stepbrother lives outside of Shelby, and he is a hardcore 2nd gen camaro guy.

My1stCamaro92RS · 02-01-2002, 06:36 PM

Located up on the lake, about 30 miles east of cleveland.

camaro03 · 02-01-2002, 08:12 PM

Ravenna Here, near akron

87'IROC5.0 · 02-03-2002, 08:02 PM

I'm in Euclid, about 10 minutes from downtown Cleveland.

I've wanted a 3rd generation Camaro since they came out 20 years ago, and bought mine just yesterday.

Going to have trouble sleeping tonight as I'm picking it up tomorrow!

My1stCamaro92RS · 02-03-2002, 08:48 PM

Good to hear Dave...maybe we'll get together at Eastlake or Annabelles this summer. What did you end up getting?

90RSErik · 02-05-2002, 04:37 PM

Cleveland, OH here.

My1stCamaro92RS · 02-07-2002, 06:27 PM

Great to see some local guys here...spring is not that far off and maybe we can get together at one of the local cruises, Brunswick, Solon, Eastlake, etc.

A nice list of future mods there Erik...when I'm done remodeling the house in a year or two, if there is any money left, I may do some upgrades too.

I brought the camaro home from work today as I haven't been in it and on the highways since ?. I have it garaged in my place of work's two story underground parking garage. I missed driving it and took advantage of the blue skies and somewhat mild temps...(anything above 30 is a heatwave to a window cleaner. LOL) I hope it lasts a few more days without any precipitation, snow or rain!

87'IROC5.0 · 02-07-2002, 06:44 PM

Hi Rob, a couple car shows sound like fun! where in Eastlake are they held and where is Annabelles?

I got an '87 IROC Z with 40,000 original miles on it. It's not mint, but it has no rust either. 305 four barrel and automatic. The t-tops will be great fun in the summer, can't wait for it to warm up. It's just a bit faster than my '89 Olds Custom Cruiser wagon.

Near future mods to this bone-stock car will be a new Alpine 1.5 din CD player and new speakers (Just waiting for the UPS guy) and 4th gen power seats. Going to start looking through the boneyards here soon, the wife cannot drive it with the manual seats, the seat back is reclined too far in the full up position.

I love it! The 20 year wait was worth every minute.

90RSErik · 02-07-2002, 06:55 PM

I agree about getting together at the local car shows. I go to the Solon show about every other week, but haven't brought the Camaro there in two summers. Solon's a great show and I also like the Brunswick one (though I hardly ever get out there). Anyways, I hope to bring my car to Solon after the LT1 is up and going.

Later,
erik

My1stCamaro92RS · 02-07-2002, 07:57 PM

At any and all of the above. We have a nice group of guys with some very nice cars....this was our last gathering at annabelles in Mentor

92RS87Z_Driver · 02-07-2002, 08:39 PM

What is your last name? We are about the same age and I might remember you from way back. What is your step bros name? I might know him too.

87'IROC5.0 · 02-07-2002, 09:05 PM

Here's a pic of my car.

Eastlake: Take 2 to 91, 91N all the way to the end, turn right at the 'T' and another quick right into the city hall lots...where all the flags fly.

Annabelles is an old fashion diner that has cruises every Friday and Saturday night. Once known for burnouts and races, the Mentor cops have pretty well cooled the action. Take 2 to 615 and head south. Turn left onto Tyler Blvd, just past Classic Chevy, and go one mile. Turn right at the Post Office onto Twinbrook and the diner is on the left. As we get closer to the cruising season, I'll post the info again.

TS b4c · 02-10-2002, 12:23 PM

I'm from Sidney, Oh. Its about 40 miles north of dayton on I-75. Not to much action up here, except for every year there is a small car show that is alot of fun. After the show is over they clear out a lane though the parking lot and do burn outs for a few hours till the cops tell everyone to go home, they never give anybody tickets.

bjm323 · 02-10-2002, 04:53 PM

Garrettsville, Oh is in the house. About 10mi. north of Ravenna.

My1stCamaro92RS · 02-10-2002, 10:31 PM

I know where that's at. What kind of car you driving? Any photos?

Justin88-305 · 02-10-2002, 11:11 PM

Cincinnati here. not alot of 3rd gens, but not too few either

Hi My1stCamaro92RS, I'm not driving my car yet. Still in the building stages. It is a 91 RS. Its an all aluminum big block with lots of nitrous. I'm looking to run somewhere around 8.50s to 8.30s at the track. I bought the car new then decided it wasn't fast enough.

I sh*t you not. I have most of the stuff for the motor. Right now I'm trying to knock some weight of the pig. I would like to get the car down to 3000lbs. with me in it. I would post some "under construction" pictures but I haven't figured out how yet.

This car will be street legal but, I don't think it will ever see street action due to e-check.
