Sorry about that:smt118. I have a 15 year old that is eat up with anything that has tires and a engine. Right now its extreme 4x4,next week it might be a Mustang with a 460:ohnoes:

I've never been into the mud bogging or 4x4 sort of thing...but drag racing or nascar, now I'm interested. Here lately I've been thinking about possibly doing some autocross, but I've got alot more to learn about it.

I'm a HUGE NASCAR fan! And autocross is awesome. I drive a Mazda roadster (perfect car for autocross), and once I decide to quit being lazy and fix a couple problems on it I'm gonna take it to the monthly Grand Bay auto-x events. What kind of car are you wanting to auto-x?

What kind of car are you wanting to auto-x?A 93 Firebird 3.4 V6 A4. I've added Bilstein HD shocks, Eibach springs, and alot of suspension/chassis stuff from BMR.

Hmm... Never have been a fan of the v6 Firebirds... Of course other than the stock ones, all I've ever seen is trashed, ragged out Firebirds. Good job on all the chassis/suspension work, its not very often you see someone actually go through with doing that stuff.

yeah, i hate the way base model firebirds look. thats why i added all the trans am ground effects and bumpers. I was gonna swap in a LT1 but decided that buying a house was a bit more important right now. the car is paid for so i have plenty of time in the future to get that done.
