Was his name Mike Lau? Not sure where Mike was taking his (he has a '01 Red drop-top) or what all the mods he was getting, but I do know its alot.
Mike also has a '01 GMC C3 with the 6.0 and soon to be supercharged that also has a VERY nice stereo system.

He had a VERY nice truck aswell. Told me it had a heads and cam job on it aswell as a stereo system. He was real cool to talk to and from what he was saying has a bad *** C5 coming into town soon.

Yeah he's really cool. I am about to get into competing (car stereo that is) so I've been hanging around/talking with him, he's done it plenty before.
I don't know the details of the mods he is getting on the vette, I just know it will be extensive.

Hello Fellas!! Long time no see! Its been about a year since i moved from there. Glad everyone is O.K. Looks like some newbies in the area. Thats good!
I will be coming down Wednesday night with my car. Kinda miss being around there so I thought I would drive down after work to go to the car club. Any challangers? Rick? Raymond? I heard you guys took me and Jordans spot as the top dawgs of the area. I will try to get Kyle Mckenzie to drive his T/A and follow me down there also. I hope the weather permits though.

Hey Tony,

I'm hoping I can get the nine inch/4.56's put together in time for Wednesday now that I see your gonna be in town.

Rick

nice to hear she is finally coming together Brook. I am still trying to get the guy that was gonna sell me a t-top to reply. I am also fixing a few "bugs" with the car so hopefully she can be out there this Wednesday...maybe I hope...thats cool that they thought Daves work was GTP quality, hopefully they wont "fluff" the numbers to make the heads look not as good as theirs..hopefully GTP's proffesionalism is strong. I really think they should do good,they sure looked good to me!
good luck,
Rick
ps. email me the flow numbers as soon as you get em Brook!

I never hear of Chris B racing anyone cause that guy has the busiest schedule of any person I know. It would be fun to see how any of the "college station boys" fare against one of the, if not the fastest heads and cam LT1's in the country
so how about it Chris? wanna race now that your back to 3.42's...

What's up everyone. Yes Evilbox, I did get rid of my car. Tired of messing with constantly fixing everything. Plus I could not get rid of my low rpm stumble and had already spent $2500 on it. I have a 2002 reg cab Chevy 4X4 if anyone is looking for me. It is a pewter stepside.

Hey, first of all I just want to reiterate that car club is at the old Academy at the corner of Texas Ave. and George Bush Drive. Second, I can't wait to see the legendary Tony's car. I have heard so many good things about it. Guess what guys? That fool with the used motor sold it to someone else. I am going to take my old motor up to dallas to get it rebuilt Wed morning. So I should have the car back by the end of next week. And as far as having the baddest car in town, I know that I won't for a long while, but in a couple of months you might be having to contend with a cammed, blown 355 from me. Rick, I will be coming for you, but not until I beat Grant and Raymond. Good luck with the T-top. Wed, I bet that my friend Matt(blue cammed V6) will let you borrow his to go race. If only it would stop raining...
