Default y helo thar

Name's Lee and I drive a pewter '99 Pontiac Firebird V6 - some of you may know me already. I usually hang with the LS1tech crowd, so my car has quite a few upgrades (it has to?) - mostly suspension. Canyon runs are a blast in this thing. It is a V6 for a number of reasons, but my "hopes and dreams" are to upgrade to a C5 or C6 Corvette, and if not - perhaps something else such as an 01 M5, 96 840/850, or 98-02 E55.

Last but not least - some pics of my ride:

Hey dude, you finally made it here, huh? I got videos of at least 2 of your runs on Saturday - should be up in a week or two...

Hey man, thanks... Those runs were horrible, lol... I dropped 150+ lbs out of the car (interior), threw on Nitto drag radials, and gained a tenth in the 1/8th compared to Irwindale and raised my avg. 60ft time while hooking like an AWD car.

Nice ride. I love firebirds. Yours looks to be in amazing condition for a 99.

My dream car growing up was a white 1991 GTA.

Thanks, I didn't take care of it for only the first few months of owning it, then I fell in love... Been detailing it regularly ever since. LOL.

If you go to the cruise tomorrow you will see it in a condition only a few of my neighbors rarely see it in... ABSOLUTELY FILTHY.

So clean it up!

My car is super filthy right now, though, so I can't really talk.

I'm putting it off for Monday... Gonna start lining it with cheap sound deadener (and weighing it down) tomorrow maybe an oil change too before the cruise.
Here's a pic from my recent roadtrip (pretty much no editing done):

also the same as:
