Kind regards,
Every time I click on your link it either goes dead or sends me to godaddy.com
Now I would not mind seeing that video of Danica Patrick and the Highway Patrolman but not at work.

I would love to but we shut down for two weeks in April for yearly maintenance so I will be on night shift with no time off.

This happened to me. The RPM will go up to 6000 + and then slowly come back down. Just make sure the DIC says competition mode. Also if you jump on youtube and search “2010 Camaro launch control” it will bring up a couple videos relating to it. I would post it here but I am at work and can not get on youtube due to the internet filters.

LS3....no automatic for me......and I'm loving going back to a stick.

As for clean, yeah, they're work. The Grand Am I traded in was black.....just nothing prettier when it's clean....and honestly, the black Camaro reminds me of the bat mobile

Yes. But it's a secret. No, I really don't have anything. I've never been down south unless it was on I-15 on the way to VEGAS!! I think you might have to plan this one. I think Sheila and you have been down to that area more than I have. I just know I'm in!!

Lightning strikes again....
I chased down a Silver 2SS a few minutes ago, invited him to join us here on the Utah Utes thread.

Thank you Internet.

You know they have those TV shows, "World's Dumbest Criminals?" I think there should be one for witnesses.
Slick, this is just for you... sometimes it's the witnesses that are the smart ones:

Lawyers should never ask a Southern grandma a question if they aren't
prepared for the answer.

In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called his first
witness, a grand-motherly, elderly woman to the stand.


He approached her and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know me?"

She responded, "Why, yes I do know you, Mr. Smith.

I've known you since you were a young boy, and frankly, you've been a
big disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, and
you manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You think
you're a big shot when you haven't the brains to realize you never
will amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you."

The lawyer was stunned! Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across
the room and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know the
defense attorney?" She again replied, "Why, yes I do, I've known Mr.
Bradley since he was a youngster too. He's lazy, bigoted and he has
a drinking problem. He can't build a normal relationship with anyone and
his law practice is one of the worst in the entire state. Not to
mention he has cheated on his wife with three different women. One of them
was your wife. Yes, I know him."
The judge asked both counselors to approach the bench and, in a very
quiet voice, said, "If either of you idiots asks
her if she knows me, I'll send you to the electric chair."

You want us to do an intervention?? We could tie him to a chair and play 50's music to him for 48 hours straight. That ought to do it.

It's amazing what they can do with cars anymore. The technology has come so far. Back in the day you really had to worry about paints blending and stuff, now you can never tell anything happened.

When my HHR SS got a 2" door ding I was so mad, but Pro-Dent took it right out. Then when we got rear ended up on 7th east it knocked the entire rear fascia off the car and scraped it pretty bad. Unique Auto Body was able to re-attach the rear fascia and buff out the scuff in less than 24 hours!!

Yeah for Lightning!!!!
Glad he's back!

As far as down south, I work on the 17th, so that weekend wouldn't work for me... Maybe the 24th?

And about launch control, all ya gotta do is push the traction control button to be off, then floor it, hit your right tap shift when it gets up there, then look at all the LS3s in your mirror!


Hey, I was thinking, lets all do dinner this week!
Friday looks like bad weather.... so Saturday?

Zions info: http://www.nps.gov/zion/parkmgmt/road-construction.htm

One more thing about Zions, plenty of Highway Patrol.

The other gorgeous drive that is close to home is over Wolf Creek Pass in the Uintahs. When the wild flowers are in bloom it's really cool. You can go through Kamas, Woodland and up toward Tabiona. Dick's drive-in is there as well. Last year (as we were removing a fly fishing hook from our dumb dog in front of the hardware store..), there were about 20 Lambourghinis that came through together. It was awesome, but I thought, you know what would make it even better? CAMAROS.

My other want for the end of June is to go to Widowmaker in Croydon. I have no idea what the road conditions are up there. Might be a bike ride instead of the Camaro.

I'm in. And then I can help debunk this theory of yours about leaving LS3's in your dust j/k

But seriously, I'm there, name the place and TEAM SS will be there!
