Do you intend to use your car for just cruising & shows, or are you interested in maybe doing some drag racing or sprints/ circuit racing/ track days? Once mine's up & running I'm gonna be doing a bit of all of the above? :D

Not having a whole lot of money to throw at mine I'm just after cruising about to meets this year and seeing what's possible. I have to be honest, I'm not totally in love with my Camaro yet but I am falling.

It's my first f-body V8 but I just haven't driven anywhere yet to really test it out. Once the weather gets nicer I'm going to spend a few weekends pottering about various places in Bavaria and seeing if I'm really suited to it.

I have to say, I love the soft leather seats. :lol: :oops:

Having spent much of my 20's and 30's chasing women and clubbing in my Camaro I have also won several car audio shows.
Now its stripped of stereo equipment I'm looking the drag race, road course and hill climb it. Maybe even Ten of the Best which is a competition for any car to post the quickest autocross time (around cones in a car park), 1/4 mile time and highest top end on a 2 mile strip.

Right now I enjoy just cruising.
This is from last night in the west end.
