My Story

Ok, I'm up for ROTM again, 2 years later and quite a bit has changed. Still no dramatic how I found her at a junkyard seconds away from being crushed stories; just a well taken care of car bought by a responsible owner. Dan and myself still do all the work (or just me because SOMEONE lives in Iowa...) and the car still runs mid 12's at the track (though that should change next year, when I'm not racing in the crazy TN heat). I bought the car in 2005 with 31k miles on the clock and 4 and a half years later she has about 50k so I'm hoping to have this car for as long as gas stations sell 93 octane. My goal is still 400AWHP, but really I'd like to get into the 11's in the 1/4. The car was mostly stock when I bought it, and I've really only added minor appearance upgrades because these cars look so good from the factory. Plenty has been done to the rest of the car though. Oh, and 2 years ago I lied about being 'done' with modding this car but you know how that goes...
