Hey dude, if you ever think of switching out Hockey Stick stripes, I'd recommend SLP's: http://www.slponline.com/view_produc...&BIG=100054A-3

I think they'd look awesome on your car. They're the best out there since they have the surrounding pinstripe, are probably the most true to the original shape, and they're a one piece design meaning there is no body-color seam where the fender meets the nose. The only problem is that you'd need to get an emblem or decal to place in front of the marker light for your engine designation since they include no script or anything, which in and of itself is more true-to-heritage as well!

Also, how are mounting those TT's comin' along?

Just got back from a 1100 Mile Road trip up to Eureka Springs Arkansas.
I Ran with a buddy and his Z06 through the Ozark mountains !!!!!!
As I pulled into our B&B Friday I stayed in the car as it started to rain. I sat there and thought to myself lets just sit here until it stops raining then I can get out and go inside. I don’t want to get out right now with it raining so hard and get my interior SOAKED. That’s when it happened
3

The bottom Dropped out it looked like it was a white out in a Snow storm my New 2010 Camaro was getting the **** beat out of it by Hail stones !!!!!! I couldn’t move with cars behind me I just sat there helplessly like a deer in headlights. After about 15 seconds I was finally able to back out of my parking place and back under a tree across the road where I thought that would help and break some of the hail up and away from my car……… NOPE more fell with leaves and Hail. The hood on my car had about a ½ of inch of hail piled on it
( Eureka springs Arkansas has no carports or anything in that type of cover just a Carwash which happened to be 2 miles away and it was 3 stalls ) I sat there under the Tree choked up with a lump in my throat as the hail stones pounded against my hood and roof. All of this hard work and now THIS its just not fare . I buried my Face in my Hands and started to think there was nothing I could do. I cant see past my hood so I cant drive anywhere and I cant drive or it would only be worse I just sat there with my face in my hands and cried biting my bottom lip praying to God I would wake up from this dream. IT WASN’T A DREAM IT WAS A NIGHTMARE.
After the hail stopped I headed to to car wash got out and started picking up the piles of ice off of my car where the wipers lay. Then I washed the car off and got my California Water blade and started drying the car off. After I got most of it wiped off I finished with my Microfiber drying towel looking to see how bad my car was Damaged.
After the whole car was dried off I leaned over the drivers side of my Camaro and closed my eyes for a moment THANKING the Good Lord THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
0 dents !!!!! How could this be ? Millions of quarter size Ice pellets hit my car over and over and over and not 1 dent. Only thing I can say is I had the man up stairs over looking me that afternoon because with the hail we had my car should be beat to Hell. I guess all of that Adams Car Wash and Zaino Wax paid off keeping the bugs clean off my car and paint strong.

Car #90221 still looks flawless like the day Super60 ( Mike Judge ) drove her off the assembly line.
I thought my hard work was demolished...... I really had someone looking out for me

Mike judge and the Camaro Team Really built this Oshawa Camaro like a Rock because she took thousands of Hail stones over and over and over and rolled away flawless

Pics that were taken just hours after the hail storm













And who better than TEXAS MOTOR SPEEDWAY Greeted us back home 3 days later

I decided to upgrade my shifter knob to a Barton industries pistol grip knob.
I love the knob over the stock one for sure

For you guys who have an automatic or even a standard ( they make it in standard knob as some of you already know )

Get the Barton pistol Grip BAD A$$ KNOB with a Great feel.

You feel like you are in a cockpit of a fighter jet with this baby.......and trust me I would know what thats like I sit in them daily.
