There are some guys that usually meet at A&W on M-20 on Friday evenings but I am not sure how great the actual scene is over there. In mt. pleasant it blows. nothing but ricers and a few mustangs and ls1's with maybe an exhaust system. You gotta go over to Mid-Michigan Motorplex in stanton for test n tune if u wanna see any good action. Its about 25-30 minutes from mt. pleasant.


SO your coming up for Central vs. Western weekend eh? Your gonna have a blast, it is f-ckin nuts up here that weekend. I can't wait!!!!

Who built your transmission 91Bird??? I am either going to sell my T/A or I might just build the trans up and beat the hell out of it.

Pioneer Transmission in Lapeer. Good guys and they work on a few hot rods. If this breaks then I will probably just go with an aftermarket 700r4.
