About this Current Vehicle:
I had to have one of since since I first saw one in 1998. I used to have a 1995 V6 Crapmaro and decided to mess with one of these on the highway one night. Needless to say, I got smoked pretty bad. That Crapmaro was totaled in a hurricane, and after one call to a far away Possible Extinction dealership and the first test drive later, I finally had this Trans Am. Being a gearhead is a powerfu sickness that I've been dealing with ever since. This car was bone stock when I purchased it and with the exception of the camshaft and blower install, I take alot of pride in doing all of the work on this myself.
This car was featured in the May 2005 issue of GM High-Tech Performance in the "Street Heat" section. Maybe one day, I'll get a spread.

Installed a UMI adjustable torque arm!
Man does she push harder now. I don't know why I didn't do this sooner. I'm looking forward to hitting the track this friday and hopefully get some new 60' times.

New track results
Got some new track times in with the new combo and video uploaded. Had an ok night at the track. Ran a best of 12.5 with a spinning 2.0 60' out at Pueblo with a 6800+ DA. Nice time for such a crappy sixty foot and so much wheelsping. This thing is a monster in the quarter. I got some Mickey Thompson ET streets on the way to hopefully fix the traction issues. I know it has an 11 sec. run in it even at this altitude, just need to put it to the ground. If the weather holds out, going to the track again Friday.
