I'm reminded of the '94 25th Anniversary T/A I bought new. It was the last one sold in the Phoenix market. It was the biggest pile of S**t I'd ever owned. But it was cool looking and high 13's on a stock LT1 a/t wasn't too bad at the time.
Now I see these 4th gen F-bodies around town. Most look look like real pieces of junk. There looks no longer impress me and there performance is lack luster compared to a new muscle car.
Your F-body has already passed the "looking cool" stage. It's performance today is unimpressive for what has been done to it, especially considering you could go to Ford, Chrysler and soon Chevrolet and buy a brand new factory built race car that will blow your car away.
I'm not even sure what your name is but I'm sure of this, 30-40 years from now when your name is brought up, everybody will say "who?". When your car crosses an auction block, everybody will say "why is that car here?"
Neither you or your vehicle will enjoy the notoriety much less historical significance of this Fredd Gibbs / Dick Harrell '69 Camaro.
I'm tired of your attitude towards us Class Racers. I'm tired that you think this forum is yet another soap box for you to shot your mouth off on things you only think you know. If you want to race in the class you race in, fine. Frequent the forums that espouse your class of racing. If you've been run off, that's your problem but don't bring that fat chip on your shoulder over here. It is not appreciated.
This is the final comment I will make to you as I know my fingers will tire long before yours. Apparently your parents did not teach you anything about respect. That's too bad. I'm sure this lack of teaching has had an impact on your business life as well.
