There is a huge group of local people going to larue friday for test and tune. Ill be running the 2012 camaro ss before i throw some parts at it!

 

bottle, cheater haha

 

Lol, it's only cheating if they ask and I don't tell. The pursuit of speed and how you get there is all fair game. All that's important is, you get there.

 

from Wooster oh about a hour south of Cleveland. looking at going to the Camaro show at summit racing hoping for a large 3rd gen turnout.

 

When is that?

 

This weekend.

Summit is also having the BOP show on Sept 22.

I may go on saturday also. Not sure though as of yet. I went to Akron U back in the day so I though it would be fun to check out the town and see what it looks like now and then hit up summit down the road.

 

I can't make it, I'll be in Bmore for the weekend.

 

Look what Summit has on the clearance table!!!

 

Got awful quiet in here.

I tinted my windows, side marker lights, and painted my taillight centers. Also added GTS blackouts, and brighter bulbs all around.

 

^^^Oh CRAP lol, that was post #666^^^

 

quiet ? shouldn't be, not with how loud and awful my cars running in ohio haha

 

budfreak. wow your car is looking good. love the look. still not wild about the hood on a GTA but your car looks at the best I have seen it. enjoy it man! the tint is a nice touch on your color

 

My cars on jack stands the rest of the year. Im in the process of welding up some long tube turbo headers.

Here's some pics from the last day out at the car show a few weeks ago. That's my moms 1962 Olds 98 next to it. All original 44k mile car and is pretty mint.

 

BTW Budfreak1 the car is looking nice!

 

Uhoh, what'd you do?

Thanks man, definitely having fun. I'm considering getting a mecham rear spoiler for it now. Also going to cut some holes or slits in the rear of my hood bulge, to relieve the pressure under there at speed, and create some downforce.

Thanks man!

 

its missing, me? didn't do anything, these things happen. its got me stumped though

 

Lol, I was just teasin ya. If you decide to get brave, feel free to head my way and maybe we can get it rolling right.

 

think for now atleast ive got it sorted, combination of things wrong with it, fixed em all runs good now, but i dont feel brave enough to take the car out of town haha

 

also everyone is right, car looks killer bud

 

I'm from Akron. Stuck in New Mexico for work right now though. Can't wait to be back home. I miss Quaker city raceway. Hell, even dragway 42 is nicer than the track in this town.

 

Thanks man!

 

Welcome aboard man! I'm from akron, just dont live there anymore. I plan to start running Quaker next year if I'm not moved yet, but 42 was always my home track.

 

i have some friends in new Mexico, from what I've heard though not in any good part of town

 

It truly sucks here. I'm in Hobbs NM. I was up in Ohio this summer on vacation. Made some passes at Quaker on my cbr and my old lady made her first trip down the track in my diesel, she's hooked on racing now . Lol. Made myself homesick in a bad way. Always loved Quaker city, my earliest memories in life are from there and 42. Took her to her first nhra national event last summer at norwalk. I love the look on a persons face the first time they experience top fuelers going by. Didn't realize how good i had it as far as racing venues till i left.

 

Canton, Oh here!!

 

Give my GTA some votes guys! Only takes a few seconds, so click the link and click the vote button for me please!

Done

 

Someone actually paid $3000 for that T-Ram too!!!! Unless you have an original 92 Firehawk I have no idea why anyone would do that. You can get a new MiniRam with the rails for less than half that price and make more power. I guess it is unique though.

 

Thanks man! You guys can vote everyday, so keep on it!

 

The guy got it for less and is a member, but for some reason refuses to acknowledge that the one I found is the one he bought. He even posted in a for sale thread I made on here and acted like he didn't buy it, then a few days later makes a thread about his brand new T ram lol. I posted in it and asked if it was the one, and he ignored me. Dudes some kind of douche.
That and my intake (superram) are the two best ones you can get, plus they are rare so they tend to go for $$$$.

 

I worked up at Summit for 6 yrs, a buddy of mine told me that is the price he got it for. now they were running a 25% off sale on scratch and dent then too so he probably did get that off, so I guess it would've been $2250. the tram is good and superram is badass too, my buddy runs that on his GTA but for my money im going with a TPIS ram. ill give up torque on the bottom to make up the hp up top with the mini ram. they are all better than what I have now though lol

 

Voted for you! Also from Ohio and a Scorpio. Love the black GTA!

 

Yeah, it was 25% off. The Superram makes plenty up top, it just needs a decent cam and set of heads to do it well. On mine, It doesn't fall off like stock TPI up high, just keeps on pulling.
When did you work there? My brother was there in phone sales for 8 years.

Thank you!
Keep them coming everybody, you can vote everyday!

 

I'm still around. I haven't done anything with my car at all this summer. I just take it out, blow some doors off, burn off some rubber and then put it away.

 

ahh good times
laying rubber and showing a mini van your tail lights is always special. just kidding

 

now that's funny!

 

Thanks just came to me! You know its funny the variety of our cars performance. there are the base 4 cyl, 6 Cyl. and carb'd V8s the the HO and TPI cars. I have owned a base 2.8 Camaro and a 5.0 carbd V8 and have had my A$$ handed to me by dodge omni's and old station wagons..lol but yet there are few that can touch my current ride and its all stock. but some modern V6 accord can cause me pain if they know how to drive it..lol
a newer GTO will hand it back to me.

btw.. the old cars times on this link cause me to be happy.. those 60/70s cars wern't all that quick in stock. Many of us could beat some if not all?? esp the modified LS motors

Anyone else tried of this cold and snow...

 

I have a new altima 2014 and it even had a hard time with heating up. frozen oil??

 

more like frozen coolant, but yes im tired of -7-10 all week. very tired of it

 

Hey all, Drew from Dayton, Oh here. 24 years old. Starting to restore my dad's 92 Firebird 3.1 auto. Not really a full restore, just want to get it road worthy. I am NEW to this kind of thing. I am mechanical minded, but never really gone this far into a vehicle. Currently working on some floor pan rust in the rear driver area. To this point, I have removed all the seats, and pulled back the carpet to reveal a massive hole in the floor. Figured I would stop by here to see what people say... Good to be here, and so far the cars I have seen look awesome.

 

I patched a hole just like that in my car. Mine was on the passenger side.

 

Are these T-top cars? Odd to see major floor rust I'm thinking. Sick of winter and -0 temps too.

Anyone know, is there a list of 1/4 mile strips in Ohio? None down in this area.

 

How far are u away from Columbus?

 

My car does not have t-tops. I bought it in Michigan, probably from winter driving.

 

Anybody looking to buy or know somebody looking to buy a 355 hsr motor? Complete motor with accessories, tranny, harness, ecm with dyno tune, and headers.

 

Elyria ohio here just got 88 gta project

 

I looked at that car as a potential project, and just didn't see myself ever having the time. The body and chassis are real solid, and a good foundation. Gut and replace the interior, find a new digital cluster, fix the trans, and add paint and a few new body pieces and it will be a real nice car. I elected to buy a car someone had already did that kind of work to.

 

I'm here from just south of Cleveland. I just got back into a Third Gen after a very long hiatus. I didn't get a chance to play around with the one that I had back in my younger years so I have a lot of questions and lots to learn with my new one. I think it is sufficiently setup to keep my modding desires at bay for a little while at least.

Here's my Members rides thread.....
