• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    I raced my Brother in Law, and then myself...

    My Brother in Law went out and bought him a 2002 Z28 after I got mine last year. He's a good guy, but a bit of a follower. Anyways it's his first real "fast" car and he talks junk about it non-stop. We've raced before GP vs his Z28 and I always put at least 2 cars on him. The other day he was...

    Went to the track. No traction occured

    Went to the track for a few runs this morning. Nothing at all impressive. No traction whatsoever. Even with nitto 555r tires and launching at 2k. Second video show me burning out half way down the track. Car pulled super hard once I stopped spinning. Left lane both times. Car 220. Did...

    Two mustangs= Two wins

    Raced a newer s197 Mustang GT last monday with my brother in law in the car. I wasn't going to go after it but he said it sounded badass and poked me too so i bit. On the interstate, both going about 55, he hit it first got a jump, maybe half a car. I pulled him back in and got a door up on him...

    RWD with good tires or FWD with drag radials in the rain?

    So long story short this week has been a little rainy here. I've been working about an hour and a half from home and not getting back there until well after dark. Monday and Tuesday I took my Camaro with new (less than 2k miles) tires on it. In heavy rain and very wet roads I ended up getting...

    Dyno sadness

    I'm going to post this in the kills sections since it almost killed me paying hundreds of dollars for this... This is the story of taking a Grand Prix to a dyno operated by people who, while knowledgable and professional, couldn't get it to do right and almost messed up my favorite car. SO...

    New (to me) car time! Z28 for the win!

    Got a killer deal on a mildly used 2002 Z28 Camaro. Runs great, made the 150 mile trip back from where I got it no problem, Sounds great, and looks.... Like a Camaro. So ok. Only mods done previously to car was a catback exhaust. Sounds pretty good. Car appears to have been not molested too...

    Thinking of possibly flipping a car....

    Belt size on your tiny pullies

    When I switched over to my 2.8 pulley yesterday I had a hard time getting the 642 belt on it. So hard I gave up. I've been running the 650 belt that was on my 3.0 since with (seemingly) no problem. So the question is, what belt do you other tiny pulley guys run? I don't have an IC so I know...

    Damage guesses?

    Not huge damage, but long story short a guy tried to merge into my lane on the interstate. I swerved but he still made contact. This is most of the damage. Looks like a little body work and maybe some paint. I'm going to get it estimated tomorrow by the insurance adjuster. Guesses on total $...

    04/05 fuel pump install- Fuel pump access in trunk

    This is a write up for all of us 04+ guys with fuel pumps that have access in the trunk. For the later 05-08 gp's with the pump in the tank, the pump should still be the same, but getting it out will be up to you. Can't help you there. I installed a walbro 255lph pump i got from intense. Works...

    New Motor mounts?

    So since i went to track and launched the car pretty hard last week my motor seems to vibrate more than usual. I'm thinking motor mounts shot? I took a video. It's hard to see, but about half way through i focus on the dogbone, and you can see it vibrating pretty bad. Overall the motor shakes...
