Yes I did, but only for a week. Wiped the cam out so I had to yank it back out. Going from a fairly big solid cam to a roller set up. Can't decide on hyd. or solid....

I just bought a set of 4 camaro rims and tires for $100 with good tread on all 4. Now thoses are my autocrossing tires/rims.
Try thirdgenparts here in tampa over by the airport. I just got a starter for $10 allready pulled. I beleve I saw a frontend in there. But they also have a few cars sitting outside. Adam :-)
new to the site but picking up my firechicken tomorrow. Im located in Delray Beach, but go to school in Miami. Once I get it, focusing all the work on making it into a drag car.
Its got a 350 in it, which Ill probably swap for a chevy 350 if I can get a matching trans.
I live in Miami Lakes ( Miami Dade ) off the palmetto and Miami Lakes Drive, wow, at least I am not the only South Florida guy here on the boards!
The Tower Shops in Davie has turned into a jap feast! I was soooo shocked! I went there 2 weeks ago with my nephew and could not believe it, the last time I was there before was almost 2 years ago where there was just a few jap cars by Michaels side, but what a shame! Most are crappy junk under 3k, I would like to kill the idiot who made those fast and the furious movies. Andy

Quoted for truth, that and the crappy console racers based around 'tuners'(my a** the games are all about how much ri** you can stick on your car).
I will say that Need For Speed Most Wanted is a fun game, I got it for the good feelings that Hot Pursuit gave me way back in the day, hell atleast Most Wanted lets you drive a 1st Gen Camaro.
Now if only someone would come out with a game based off of the same system as the new NFS game, but only with classic American cars, an old school city, and without cops that drive vette's.

Well heres the new cardomain site people. It needs some TLC but Ive fallen in love with it already.(ESPECIALLY those big a** rims on the back*drools at how they actually fill up the wheel wells[cant really tell in the pic]). http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2227544
Tell me what you think.

No, Andy, you are not the only South Florida guy on the boards, but as you can see, we are small number....
I was told that the Tower lot is over-running with jap metal, but I figured it would still be a good place for us South Florida Members to meet up. Besides, I almost find comical to look at some of the cars...perhaps one day they will wake up and smell the coffee.
OK, I am throwing this out there for the Miami and Palm Beach people.....
Since the Towers is no good anymore, how about the Big Daddy Flanagin's on Atlantic Boulevard in Broward County, a block or two east of Federal Highway??
1986 camaro - 10.5 outlaw/Outlaw 632
1989 lead sled still awating its transformation
- If you can't afford to do it right the first time, can you afford to do it again?
We need a future date set far enough so a midway point can be made, the broward area is right, it is in the middle. Anyway, I suggest a date with enough time for more to attend. Andy
not to many of us NW florida guys are there, destin florida for me 85 T/A 383 stroker th 350 trans we should get together. what is that tran am regionals thing in ft walton all about
(Beaten with rocks) 
That would be awesome. Im sure we have enough people for one. It sucks we are so spread out though.
