can't wait to see your car tuesday don't forget to post some vids asap as i depleted all my popcorn stock and i got nothinn to munch on .

Glad you're back buddy, it was kind of quiet without you round these parts.... Appreciate the kind words, and yes, it's been a rough 6 months since losing Timmy. In the thousands of hours we spent together over the years, I can remember him saying that when it was his turn he wanted to go in his sleep, and that's the only thing I'm grateful for is that the Big Man upstairs answered his wishes. But I'd still give anything to have him here with me. We should all be so lucky! You'll be excited to see there's video below, hot off the presses!

Thanks Leo, as I said before you & Dizzy were the first 2 to know and I appreciate you giving me all your support back at the end of July. Not really knowing anyone out here in Cali, and having you guys being so supportive kind of cut the edge so to speak, cause I really felt like I had no one. I'll always appreciate it brotha!

Now, now P I never said I'd be selling the ZLX, I just wanted to make sure I got an allocation for the Vette and I did. Now they won't be released until about September, so I'll have some time to think about what I want to do. I won't sell the Tahoe cause I'm getting some sick work done to it, and will always need a surfboard hauler and I just love my lifted Hoe Most likely I'm going to look for a place with a bigger garage that will be filled with

Thats kind of why I wanted to do all of these mods when I get the car. My dad LOVED the F bodies. Trust me, id love to slap the ever living crap outta em right now. My dad passed when i was about 6, and my mom in october of 07. But brotha! We gotta stay strong. For their sake! They sure as hell don't like seeing us weak and broken down! RIP . You're sorely missed here brotha! Thanks for your service to our beloved country!

Lil' Bro, thanks for the PM, I was going to hit you back shortly and I see you've dealt with your share of hardships as well. That's why you have such a good head on your shoulders I guess. My bro, Timmy lost both his parents as well by the time he was 5, not the same way as you, but growing up without parents must've really been hard on you, but you're one strong mofo!! That's one of the reasons Timmy was like my brother, cause he didn't have parents and was raised by his grandmother, so my family kind of took him in and we made him our honorary Italian family member, as Italian families do, we welcomed him with open arms and he rarely missed a Sunday dinner.

You're probably correct brotha, unless I get a great offer for the whip and I may sample the waters, but as they say money talks & bullshit walks. I've had a few people interested in it, but I'm not going to give it away. I was going through all my receipts the other day for an interested party and it was pretty shocking what I have into this car
So like I said, I just wanted to make sure I'd be able to get one of the first C7s and having a buddy that owns a dealership in NJ, made that happen. So I have about 6-7 months to figure out what I want to do.

Well all the questions should be answered by now....I still don't know WTF I'm going to do But I do know this....Here's video!!!!


Just got this sent from Cunningham Motorsports, last week we did some dyno runs and Ryne had it in the high 690s RWHP, but after test driving it he wanted to tone it down a bit and make it a bit more manageable for the street. It was just a little too much and right where it's out now is extremely safe for all engine parts, and it's got an awesome power curve straight across the board. I really have no plans to officially track or race it (just outlaw races ) and if I want to throw drag slicks on it we can always upload the other tune. But I'm real happy with where we are with the car and after a street test tomorrow, I'll have it Wednesday. He just wants to fine tune the suspension. As it stands now it's more HP than a ZL1 (by about 200 ) & more than a Vette ZR1 and equal to many quarter million dollar cars, so not bad for American Muscle!!

So turn your speakers up & enjoy!

I know people will be shocked but I actually think you have more of a head turner with the Camaro. The Vette is nice, but you have a smoken Camaro...Right now the Vettes are hard to get, but wont be so later down the road. Not many camaro's around modified to yours. Keep both if you can then win win.

[StephenS_84]

Very interesting.

[SolomonAKOO]

WOW thats awesome J!! Im glad that all that time and effort that has been put into SSYNSTR has finally paid off big time! And i know it will only get better from here on out! Especially with the heart and enthusiasm you put into your car! once again congratulations and keep up the work, i cant wait to see how far you can take this Camaro!
