New Guy in central Iowa

Hey, first off i want to say that this is a great site! i am getting back into cars after a long hiatus. I used to own a 70 Chevelle SS and a 93 Z, and still own a 72 Blazer, and a 55 Chevy pickup. It's good to see so many activities in the midwest. i have long been a fan of F-bodies, and Camaros in general, and i decided that i would like to have a 3rd gen. If anyone knows of a decent daily driver let me know. i would like a Z car, but it's not necessary. V-8 is a must, as well as t-tops. Again, i am excited to see so many people with the same interests as i have, and probably a lot more knowledge!

Hey, nice to see another Iowan on here. I'm from about 60 miles east of you, in New Sharon, now Pella for school (central college). I run the full bracket season at eddyville, if you like cars thats the best place to get up close and personal with the real stuff, not boring show queens.

Hey, I've seen your car in monte before. Didn't you used to have an orange third gen with a black hood maybe?

My roommate is from montezuma, Jason Fisher.

I didn't realize that there was so much going on at Eddyville, that's cool. I just went to their website, and checked the schedule. Do you guys run there?

I'm about 10 minutes away from Eddyville raceway, and I race high school class down there, was runner up in points last year, but its definitely the place to go to see some real cars.
