ive never been out to holt, although ide really like to go and race my xtreme with some riced out civics lol. TransAm car show friday-sunday now that sounds really interesting, i might have to take a drive out there.

I really kind of regret not getting that '96 Z. it had some minor cosmetic problems, nothing that cant be fixed. And it was only 20 dollars more a month insurance. Who knows, i might not pass up the next good deal.

yeah its definately nice to have a Fbod down here. geico has good rates down here. but yeah there is a bunch of us going on saturday to the show. it should be a good time. plus all the spring break whores should be there walking around . the best of both worlds cars and whores. hah

I dont know if im gonna be able to make it out there this weekend, hopefully there will be another f-bod show coming up. I hate looking at them though, i don't have one, and it makes me want one

it will happen. they are only getting cheaper.

**9t8z28** · 03-16-2007, 02:01 PM

Yeah, they are getting cheaper. I bought my 98 LS1-6speed for $6,000 with 115,000 miles on it. Even better, it has a 20,000 mile motor in it though.

thats a damn good find man. im working on making my LT car a force to be reconned with. i will be adding a wet 100 shot soon. that should definately even the odds with most cars. my 1/8th mile time was a 8.71 with shitty track conditions and a serious bogg on my launch. im sure i can run 8.60's all day. does anyone know how to convert 1/8th mile times to 1/4mile times. the closest 1/4 mile track is 3 hours.

**blackhawk01** · 03-17-2007, 09:38 AM

i dont know...pisses me off when I see my friends in there sports cars and shit. One friend has a 92 RS tahts about to have an LS1 in it..my other friend has a bad ass 350Z. I just saw my other friends new Z28 and all I have to show for it is a LITTLE s-10 xtreme with a v6. Sucks being surrounded by all that.
