I didn't see either of those camaros. I was up there all day Saturday, but I didn't get to see everything. My buddy who had came with me kept bitching the whole time and we kept having to turn back.

I did see the silver one with lambo doors though.

i was wanting to drive my camaro but when i changed my oil on the friday before to get ready, i went over the car and seen my rear end is spitting out oiland has everything soaked. so was kinda scared to take it all that way. my macanic buddy said its about gone and to take it very easy, good timing. so i took my wifes vw passat instead. hope to have it together before the next big one i think in june it is. my buddy brought his red camaro and his dad had a bad 69 red with white strips camaro in front of tgi and and in front of the gokart place beside tgi he had 2 black muscle cars side by sideone was an old nova and cant remember the other. sweet cars.. didnt sell never tho and we had to tow them out of there on sunday morn. there was some nice f-bodys goin up and down the streets. one that stood out to me was a red ss ls1 that sounded so good

Pinion seal on the front of the diff? I was going to change mine while I was over there, but I just ran out of time. I got a socket for the pinion nut and the seal and everything. I had so much other **** to do lol. Might be a good idea to pop the diff vent out and make sure it's clean though. That's one of the main cause the pinion seal goes bad. Mine was nasty.

I would love to throw a nice cam and gear in my car by the fall rod run and take it to the LTX shootout. My buddy that came with me last weekend to pigeon forge is from kentucky, so I would have place to stay up there.
