About this Current Vehicle:

Hugger Orange Z28 6-spd Twin Turbo

In case you can't tell, I like Orange. Ha ha. I bought this car brand new with 61 miles on the odometer when I graduated college. I have owned it ever since and perform all maintenance and upgrades that I can myself. There is a lot going on with it this year and next. Hopefully I will be able to do everything I want to do. It's all about time and money. There is never enough of either. My goals are to keep it a fun daily driveable car. It will be sure to surprise a few people......Smile

Big Day for the car!

Well she rolled 100k cruising Woodward today for the 2008 Woodward Dream Cruise. How fitting that it rolled while doing what it does best. Cruising!!!!

Went to the track!

Made 5 passes at Milan Tuesday night at the Motown Muscle track rental. Only 2 were clean where I didn't miss any gears or spin off the line. For running on street tires with no suspension upgrades other than my rear LCA's, this is not too bad. I ran a 12.5 twice at just under 122mph. I was car #36 on the slips. My reaction time is not the greatest but this was my first time at the track all year. And I am not launching hard as I didn't want to break the 10bolt. All in all I am very happy. I drove the car to the track, had fun, and drove home. And it is at work today! Gotta love a fun DD!

Dyno Results!

Car is tuned and did quite well!!!! Yeah bitches!!!! 508 rwhp and 513 rwtq. Phil said it tuned very well and was very happy with the consistency and AFR. I can't wait to get it back on Sunday. Phil did the street tuning and then put it on the dyno for WOT evaluations. I asked for a safe street tune as I plan to still DD the car. Thanks Phil! Those results are great!

You've done grat with this Z. Im sure theres a better run there once you get some suspension work done! Even some sticky tires and that'll cut major time off.
