Everyone partaking of the keystones had some input, hopefully we didn't ruin the manly image of the sunfire. I highly recommend spray bombing a beater, what a blast.

100k miles doesn't sound too bad really, more than long enough for you to have haha.

Now all you need is a solar panel or wind turbine and you'll be driving for FREE!

Just finally got it back together right towards the end of the season here. Drove it around with a baseline to make sure everything was working and fixed all the little kinks. Just finished dialing in the tune a couple weeks ago so it's been fun to drive around. Unfortunately finding time to get to the track has proved difficult because of work, of course now they are about to close for the season. Hope for the car in the current state is 6.0- 6.20's @ 113-115 in the 8th which is pretty realistic. After I get there I'll put the kit back on and try to get into the 5's. Starting to look like I'll have to finally put a cage in it. Anyways, pretty dirty in these pics, had just backed it out after it had been sitting a couple weeks.    |

very true especially when you sneak an extension cord over to the neighbors LOL!! Imagine your neighbor finding the cord and fallowing it back to your garage. The look on his face would be priceless. |

If someone has a ZR1 they would like to put to the test bring it up, I haven't seen any out of the 10's yet so..... gonna take a bit more than that. Seriously putting a race car with an LS against a street car would prove something?? I am always around and there are quite a few nice tracks up here. |

Generally the first one out of the tens is the one you meet when you call attention to yourself. Just my own painful experience. I know what your saying, I just really don't care even if I did get beat. It is a fairly fast car that I enjoy immensely, if I choose to make it into more then I'll start to care a bit more. One thing I have learned over the years is just because something should be faster doesn't mean it's always going to win. I've had two personalized plates my whole life, I always wanted "LS WHAT" but with this car the chosen nudge seemed to be a bit better. |
