My mods are winding down - but I am needing a clutch - going to go with the LPE dual disc setup.

Anyone upgrade the clutch reservoir?

Other than the clutch, I will upgrade the driveshaft/yolks/rubber donughts when someone makes a good quality replacement part, and I am done. Unless something else comes along, like tubular control arms LOL...

Coming down to the end of the mods for me boys and girls - then it'll be back to LPE for a monster engine upgrade (probably this time next year).

ROFL... Junkie all you want to do is go really FAST in a straight line...!

Being able to corner excessively hard and stopping quick is pretty cool as well.

Too early to tell right now...

If it is a good year (2010), I'm going to go BIG!

I plan on tuning and bulletproofing the drive train this summer.

Ohh those will just give your car soul. I am trying so hard to find a shipping company that can get my car down here next week I dont care if it's open or an enclosed trailer right about now. I will just get it detailed when it arrives if it has to come on an open trailer

Well.... Time to take the 4 year old over to Grandma's for X-mas Eve..!!!

She is going to have fun tonight and again Tomorrow morning! that's what X-mas is all about.. When you are little and DO believe in Santa Claus! She has her notes (5 of them) all lined up on the window sill by the x-mas tree.

She has been calling the Zhu Zhu pets "susie pets"!
I corrected her.. NOPE! she corrects me and says "no dada.. they're not Zhu Zhu pets - it's Susie pets! I want them.. They talk and explore"

When I ask her what she wants, she answered - everything! I want all the toys in the toy store! I am excited for her!

Happy Holiday everyone!

RS has ordered the parts to upgrade our clutch reservoirs, but the were on backorder. Here's to 2010 being a really really good year!

Junkie, Is the berger going to be a daily driver?

Hmm... Junkie - you are right. I forgot about that new one coming out.. I need to start saving for the C7 Vette. I am sure I will want that one when it comes out..

The Camaro is going to grow old with me. Too much time and effort invested building it.

Yep the Berger is going to be the daily driver, I plan on keeping it and passing it down to one of my sons. I have a 69 Firebird that is a beater now that my daughter drag races and had WS6 that I sold many years ago. These are my first camaro's and I love them. But this is also the longest I have been without a vette since age 16. Its been about 3.5 months now...sooooo the next few years are going to be rough, but these camaro's will keep me busy.

Ya.... I had a bunch of vette's - 12 - 14 were 1998 and up - 4 were Z06's. A 1966 Big Block, and a 1996 vette (was my my first) were all the one's I had.. I had a vette for half my life! At least one vete in the stable at all times. I owned 4 vette's in 2000 (2 were brand new, the '66 and the '96).
I only have the Camaro right now. Less than 6 months Vetteless for me.
