the lengend 1295

well it started in 1972 when my father taded our way into a red 1967 entry level camaro, over the years friends have owned them some still do, i myself owned about every kind of hot rod there was/is (ford, dodge,amc,chevy) as i grew i moved to trucks tall ones, short ones, fast ones, slow ones, but always my favorite is chevy.
21 years ago got married and started my family, settled in with a 74 p c edition javlin. then came the 2006 sema car when i saw the gen 5 camaro, that started the sell off of the toys (boat,dirt bike,street truck, all the toys).

was way to fun and really addicting, the first time to ever run a light tree, only thing different, i was running 101 octane made with a synthenic blend, comp sport mode, in manual mode letting the car shift.
