I am planning on trying to make it to the Intense meet next year. This year I was going to go, but out of nowhere I had to work that weekend (we were doing new server installs, and that had to be done). I can't say anything yet for Woodward, because I have a feeling that is going to take place the same week/weekend as a wedding I'm going to in North Carolina.
If anything, I should be at two of the meets, and will get as much pictures and videos at each that I can (each meet will have their own separate video).
Now, I must start saving for a good video camera. Man, this stuff starts getting expensive quickly!

Yeah some of the quotes were funny. I liked everyone's reaction to Eric's car rolling up. You could practically hear the drool hitting the floor.
And my joke about my electronic shift kit. Which I believe is a term I heard Kyle use at one of my meets last year.

Eric I love those camaro wheels on your car! They're perfect for that car and seeing it in the video made me want them more! I thought I wanted to pvd my wheels but after seeing those I'm torn!

I'll admit, I've found it hard to like non-stock wheels for the Bonneville's, but those Camaro rims did look amazing, especially on the GXP body styling. It's as if they were designed for the car.
And seeing those wheels rolling really made them look awesome.

I think like 2:49 of the video when Eric goes by is enough proof. The sound of 5 grown men coveting over it.

Eric, what would you want for the other set of Camaro wheels you have? Square fitment might not be bad on my G8...

He only has two Ed.

But yes. Camaro wheels on your car. (Surprisingly I'm the one G8 owner who is satisfied with his stock wheels.)

I like my stock wheels, but if I could get a set of Camaro wheels, that'd be awesome...

I actually have 6 Polished Camaro Rims sitting at my house right now.
I have (4) 9" wide - 2 have tires which are rather worn and about 25% thread left. The other two don't have tires.
I also have (2) 10" wide rims without tires. All 6 of the rims are in great shape and less than 6,000 miles on them. PM me if you would like pictures and talk price. The bummer is shipping which is the reason it took me so long to find Polished rims local.
Glad everyone likes the rims. I was certainly concerned about them fitting properly and rubbing. I'm still modifying my front inner fenders to get complete range without rub. I'm getting really close and should have it finished up tomorrow. I rolled my rear fenders and have yet to have any rub since.

So, the Camaro's had 20x9's and 20x10's? I don't really have the money or needs right now, either. Next set of wheels I'm getting are for my 17" snows...

99% of Camaro's came with 20 x 8'' in Front and 20 x 9'' in rear.
A very few came with the 20 x 9'' in Front and 20 x 10'' in rear which I happened to stumble across.

If I lower it then I will have rubbing issues in the front. I'm going to try it out here for awhile.

Bring the Bonneville for sure to that one. Even though Intense supports the G8, I keep getting the vibe from the GP guys that they're not welcome there!

Yeah, I plan to bring the Bonneville to the Intense meet. I'll probably bring the G8 to the Michigan meet. I'm hoping to have the A/C fixed and at least know the source of knock in the Bonneville before next summer rolls around.

Taking a trip down memory lane

Frosty
Epic fire
The first Michigan meet casualty
And I got caught in this on the way home
