Thanks for having me!
I just bought a 94 Z28 for $900,they said the motor was locked up but after checking it out it was just the a/c compressor.I thought that while I had it apart I would do some mild mods.I started with the K&N cold air intake and a set of headers,they had just had new flowmaster and cat converter installed so I figured that would take care of the air in and out,I also replaced the plugs with NGK iridiums and 9mm wires,a MSD cap and rotor and a 6al ignition box.I bought an air foil and installed that,But I don't know if it will make that much difference,but for $25 what the heck.It won't stay in park,I think the shifter is wore out,it flops around a little,so I'm putting a B&M mega shifter(it a 4 speed auto).I haven't played with real cars in about 15 years,I used to have a 540Hp 72 Vega that ran mid 6's in the 1/8th mile,and a 72 Nova 350 when I was in high school,since then I have been racing radio controlled cars,but now I don't have anywhere close to do that.Anyways thanks for having me,I'm sure I will nedd help along the way and who knows,maybe help someone else along the way.
Thanks Again,

I used to have a t-maxx the was pretty much all hardcore titanium and alum that i just used for bashing but it was a blast,I also had an ofna ultra worlds 2 that I sold to somebody in spain off of e bay.I raced alot of off road buggy with an original rc 10 all the way to the b4 along with on road with a tc3 that has way to much money in it (around $2000)but is very fast and drives like it is on rails.The one that was the most fun was my 18t 11.1 volt li-po brushless on foams that would make the 60 to 65 mph range when you could keep it straight!I still have my helicopter and 3 hydoplanes,there too much fun to get rid of.
