Default Winter Bench racing in the North west!

So Who's it going to be? We know the Key board kings. There is one or two missing but enough Ego to go around.

So I have the slowest car in the gruop of "Key board Kings". Who has the ***** to pull up a Lane next season and show me the goods?

Lane might still have a car to beat with

Mark Might get to run the red sled

Dougs "Striped" wonder is moving up the list.

"The Chad" has a chance to take Six Speed honers....if he ever gets time to play

Ryan always has what it takes for a slap down..but has been slapped before.

Jimbob has a J O B and the cash may start to flow and Scare the hell out of some of you!

Eric ALWAYS has an un-kind word for us. Will he come and play? he HAS us all covered! So I hear....

Chris is up and smacking that **** down! Can he keep it together and not follow the 'other' red Z06 in to history?

Shaun might make a move over the winter from seven Cylinders to eight. Will it help?

Arron is looking for some tight slips in his Z06 and who will have hurt feelings over it?

I even Hear "Goldielocks" wil have a fresh 383 Gen II running. will it go 12s..11s...or even tens




So who has the goods? Who will have what it takes to show us the big picture? Will my slow *** LTx even make the cut????

Someone might show up with a big block third gen. I'm hoping it comes together by the middle of next year. But I'm not talking any **** until it runs a number.

Default Come do some real racing, Ellis

Put the Open Road(blue car) or the Mile shoot out(red car) on your schedule. You can pick, too see who is the fastest at either type of event? If it is the shoot-out I will even drive my car to the event, none of that trailer queen crap?

I plan to get licensed and come play this year. We will see what trips Uncle Sam has planned for me. A few slight changes in the setup are in the works and the tired old paint and rear bumper will get replaced this year as well.

Wrong Arron POTAC would be the other one. I am not suprised your head could not fit in one though

Don't count me out next year, I might just be on that list for the first time in what,,,,,, 5 years? The LS swap is almost complete and I might be looking to enter the "6 speed" title contest.

Rumor has it there's another Z06 to watch out for next year and it's not red.

The only thing I've got planned over winter is wax and polish. I do need a driver mod, 6 speeds are a bitch!
