Post your pics of your non-Bonneville, and If you have video footage, we want to see it. Videos must be hosted on external web space and hotlinked to PontiacBonnevilleClub.com. Also discuss mechanical problems regarding your non-bonneville (this is not another lounge, but posts don't count, random car vids not of your cars should be in the lounge)

:eek2: It's like it's meant to be there. Try posting just those two pictures on the G8 forum to see if anyone asks which model you have that comes with that tag. You have a great eye for these fine details!

Eh, you need to tighten it up then, honestly you should hit a cone in your first or second run of the day, and then have a clean 3rd or 4th run.. IF not, you're not running tight enough in turns, bet you could pickup a few tenths atleast, if you got closer. :wink:

Love the action shots!
