Omg Jerry I love your pics.

That one of Ed, me, and you at the show is a fantastic case study:

Stock suspension -> coilovers -> lowering springs

That pic of William at the fire should be framed.

Nice!

No, those aren't GTO spare wheels on front (at least what I can see in the pic). The spokes on GTO spares really flare out from the center mount pad.

They are spares, this pic shows the flare better:

"This is a good idea." - That was me being sarcastic as hell.

I love Jerry "My car sounds stock."

Good stuff.

If you're not on my facebook (add me) I ran a personal best last month on drag radials.

Since then I've purchased a set of Hoosier slicks and Racemaster front runners for the G8/GTO nationals in 2 weeks. I'm hoping to hit the 11.9's with the setup.

I attached a pic of the slip and the new race ...

G.O.N.E 2013 is Sept 18, 19, 20ish one of those days...otherwise I'm game.

There is an annual car show in Pontiac, IL that the Chicago Holden Connection goes to every year with a big showing.

We meet up on the south side and north side, then convoy down.

I think we are leaving about 11am on July 21st.

Just Kidding! Katie and company taking care of you...

Great people over there and so close to home. I am pleased.

Hi old friends.

Custom cam is in the G8 and figured you'd like to see the numbers:

402hp/391tq
226/234 601/601 112+4

If the car is out of the shop before then I'll fly up there late Friday or Saturday midday.

Sorry I rarely check this forum now.

I'll scan for free, just come to Aurora. I'll PM you.

I think you got your stuff in order as you know your region fairly well.

Always go with timing over boost as it yields more horsepower. Just balance boost with timing.

In the flatlands of northern Illinois I ran a 3.3-3.4 with 16-18 degrees of timing, which was piss poor compared to fellow GTPs ...

Lots of cars were there tonight. Decent time.

My plans for next year is a 3000 stall torque converter. *fook* the cam, I'm gonna sling this car into the future!

Ugly heat, and UGLY trans tune. I'm violently typing away at my TCM this week.

Just go to Luke's in Carpentersville. I go there from time to time and will probably show up tomorrow.

This is gonna be OFF THE CHAIN!

She is still very stealthy quiet thanks to the mellow Magnaflow cat-back.

However, WOT is just mean.
