What did you do with your Trans Am today?

Nice work! Do I dare ask how long that took?

Hand polishing with an old micro fiber: 1.5hr.

Deciding screw that and using steel wool: Just a hair under 4hr ( midpipe & headers included )

.

Using my vacation time wisely

Not too bad, really. I guess I had better wear some white cotton gloves for the install!

I anxiously await! I ask myself if I will miss the Flowmaster, then listen to some Youtube inspiration and realize I won't ever remember it again.

If you need any help with that Camaro, I am off work until Wednesday! Seriously not to imply my car, that is merely a bonus

I worked on the Camaro until almost 10:00 tonight. Still not quite done with her yet.

Had the car out for a beautiful day yesterday as my car club put on our 19th annual car cruise in. Some 700 cars, trucks and bikes showed up. Lots of food, give a ways, Friends and fun.

**DarrenWS6** · 09-21-2015, 06:00 PM

Drove it around all day. It got lightly drizzled on which frustrated me, but oh well. Still a great day to drive it around.

Rolled the fenders this weekend, hopefully getting some new tires soon.

**BobbyGFirebird** · 09-22-2015, 11:11 AM

Brilliant speedyWS6. Thx !

Can you say Traction!

Mounted up for this weekends track day..

**RONS98TA** · 09-23-2015, 03:18 AM

Took the TA out for a spin last night to meet up with Jon 35th-ANV-SS . We had a few adult beverages and did some bull $hiting and had a bunch of laughs. Good times. When I left the parking lot, I must have hit some ice, cause my tires started spinning and a cloud of smoke appeared from the rear!!! LOL

I discovered that using Dremels metal quick change discs cut down WS6 aluminum bump stop shims 10x faster than the cheapie discs do.

**speedyWS6** · 10-03-2015, 07:48 AM

Took the car for it's annual inspection today.

Actually called an MOT test (Ministry of Transport), but whatever you
call it, it passed with flying colors so good for another year! Only thing
i have to change for the test are the plates as the font on the stamped aluminum
ones is not "correct". Already changed back!!

The tester remembered the car from last year and joked that he could probably
just write the pass form out without even doing the car...... He liked the look
of the new UMI stuff out the back too.

Received my oil temp gauge and oil filter sandwich plate today. All that's left is for me to get is wide band a/f gauge. That may be a Christmas present to my self.

**udy2554** · 10-05-2015, 05:33 PM

Had both toys out over the weekend!☺️

**kingls1** · 10-10-2015, 04:59 PM

Fun relaxing afternoon going over things for this weekends track day. Cleaned the BlackWing air cleaner, Maf, bleed the clutch had some trouble shifting last time once it got hot, did find some air so hopefully helps out, Finally swapped my shifter for a factory Hurst that Jon-35th-Anv-SS gave me from his Camaro. I was thinking there wasn't much difference between the two but couldn't have been more wrong. The stock shifter was a piece of junk compared to the Hurst......I had every intention on taking pictures to show the difference but remembered just as I tighten up the last bolt on the console so you'll just have to take my word for it.
I'm thinking of changing some suspension settings on the rear to see if it hooks a little better as I attempt to change that 13.008 to a 12.???

**DarrenWS6** · 10-10-2015, 05:15 PM

Was doing good yesterday. I got my Corsa clone tips mounted, just need quality band clamps to secure them. Then today, I hit the girlfriend's focus gently with it while backing it out. Steaming pissed off. It did a light paint trade, rubbed paint from my fender lip off, no dent. I can touch this up easily. Her Focus however took a dent and a lot of silver. Oh well. She felt horrible for not parking far enough over but I kept telling her I was the one backing it up so I should have payed better attention. Ish happens.

Glad you like it.
