Sorry Matt and Jami, I missed taking pics of your cars but they were awesome. Jami's was real cool and Kerrie talked about it a lot on the way home. Matt....The flames were truly amazing and I couldn't believe you painted that yourself. Nice!!!

joe trying to drift around every corner....sometimes with some help lol. O and to bad no one got a picture of Boomer shooting that special sauce all over his face

I really enjoyed talking to Boomer. He is a real F-body and race enthusiast. He told me a lot about his and his dad's 69 Z/28. GREAT guy!!!!!!!!!!

Another fun time! Didn't get too crazy sideways today! lol

Thank you. I appreciate the compliments, and no worries on the pics :)
I did both cars myself. Check out the project logs on here if you're curious, the wrx had a ton of work just last season. I'm not exactly a bodywork newb though. Was in the industry full time for just over ten years and had my own shop for over four years. Taking a break from it as a job for a while ;)

Yes, go karts were awesome lol! Joe gave me a hell of a nudge coming into the pits on the last run :D

Wish we could have had more actual cruise time with you guys but oh well, had an awesome time either way.

Oh, and boomer definitely wins the best burnout leaving award ;)

sounds like u guys had a good time.

are we talking about the same boomer i know? LOL


bummed I missed it though...im sure we will have another...we need to make another guidos meet, the cruise up from RI was fantastic

lol should have done the cruise with us thats all i have to say

Wish we could have :(

I didnt know there was a burnout contest I would of liked to enter haha I'm sure I got the loudest obnoxious car award hahahaha

LOL yes and nastiest smelling too!!!

Hahaha its good for you. I think I averaged an awesome 11mpg on that tank!!!! My 69 is better!!!!!

There's always some sort of burnout contest lol

And as a side note, I was cruising craigslist last night looking at go karts. Someone buy my z lol!

hahahaha hope they go faster than the ones there!

Matt does seem to get the most out of them though, he did win the drag race!!!

lol he sure did!

My only fear is finally getting the ambition to build one with a regular car engine we have laying around here.
A small tube frame with a cavalier 4 cyl would fly!!! Trust me, it's been discussed lol...

One of the guys at our shop did a custom framed go kart with a 1000cc yamaha engine. Had the 5 sp trans and it fucking screwed! Lasted a week until the service manager flipped it and hurt himself bad! Then it went bye bye! lol

no roll bar?

He had a roll bar but no seat belts! Got thrown out of it! Wasn't thinking when he built it!

Sorry I didnt make it but I forgot that I had to be in Ireland for the rain date when I posted. I meant to update but never got around to it. Oh well...
