Cool! We have a race track here and every wednesday during the summer we have street racing 1/4 mile races for people who just want to go out and see how fast their car is. I think the fastest I have seen out there is a newer camero, the thing lifts off the ground at start, either that one or an older chevy s-10 that really goes! Im not sure how quick my friends subaru is, I guess I havent asked nor seen him race yet.

We miss our Camaros....they just rock. We want to get a new one in 2009 or 2010 (first years can suck) because this is the first year that we are Camaro/Firebird free. We never street raced though, just kept them stock although his Camaro could eat some when he was younger. When we got rid of it in October, it was more less a granny mobile. My Camaro was abused and had to go to Mexico in ’04. LOL now you got me started hehe. Racing seems fun, we have a couple of people that go to Tucson or Phoenix and throw the racing fuel in their cars. Seems like an expensive hobby too though. I would like to have a show car some day, maybe racer too!

Welcome to the forum!! by the by!

I’m newer here as well. I just started drag racing my car (my baby) this past summer, I wish I could even think about doing 11s... I’ll be happy to hit 14s this coming summer! lol Heres the "baby", its a 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP (hence my name)

Here are our Pets...

Morty the Red Eared Slider



The luckiest fish alive... This fish is 2 years old and about 6 inches long, he was originally bought as food for the turtle, he is the sole survivor, started out life about 1 inch long, has never had fish food... hence, the luckiest fish alive, he lives on turtle food.
Even though he is 2 years old, he has no name, my gf says we don’t name food... even after 2 years, lol



Boris, our Betta fish



Hank, our gold fish
Hes not such a lucky fish, hes about 1 year old and we’re pretty sure hes on his way out. We recently noticed red lines on his fins along with a red mark on his belly. I can’t remember the name of the disease we think he has, but we bought some medication and there has been no change, we actually think he has also come down with a case of fin rot... But, we are hoping for the best.



And of course heres a couple pics of my gf and I on a trip to Niagra Falls last summer

I didn’t get a GTP, although we almost did. At the time we didn’t know if we wanted to pay for the premium gas all the time or not and it was a blessing in disguise that we didn’t because my company lost their only gov contract in all of AZ and I was laid off a mere 3 months after getting Prixie (I name my cars!). Do you race yours stock? I know the 3.8L is pretty high rated engine and I have a mechanic friend that used to race his too and swears by them. My hubby traded in his Camaro Z28 for a G6 and likes the G6 but misses his Maro dearly. My family has gotten all of their GMs to atleast 250k with original engines, trannies, and major parts before having to trade em in or "rest" em so I am a big fan. I am rambling again too lol.

Welcome to the forum!!!!


Prixie really dirty because we have actually had snow and I can’t cover her at work. :(

The 3.8L wasn’t available till 1997, up untill then the GTP have a 3.4L Dual Over Head Cam engine, thats what I have. I do race it stock, for now, my best time is a 15.73 on a really crappy day. This summer I will do a few slight mods to the engine, nothing big because within the next few years I will be dropping a 3.8L in there and turbo charging it!

I feel like a dummy now lol. My husband was like, "duh, you didn’t know that?". Ol well I just learned something new today. I was researching it (now hehe) and saw that the 2.8L and the 3.1L were also in GPs in that generation. I had a 2.8L in my ’86 Maro (first car) and 3.1L in my hubby’s first car which was a Lumina. This is what I get for trying to be a "smart" female. That’s just awesome that you race em. Maybe when mine is paid off I can get into too and we can start a club. I have a few years though :/

I HATE MINNESOTA!!!!!!!! I cant stand this weather its driving me mad!!! For the past week the temp has gotten to -40F with highs of -11F and so when I went to go to work yesterday I noticed I had NO HEAT coming out, so that means my thermostat is bad or my heater core..DANGIT!!! So this morning I go to bring it in to have it fixed and the DARN THING WONT START!!! So then I go to have it jumped but I cant pop the hood cuz its TOO DANG COLD and the hood is frozen, and the hood popper is frozen stuck solid.. UGHHH!!! So now im paying $80 to have it TOWED to the dang repair place, and then who knows how much it will cost to get the thing fixed and I have to wait forever cuz there is so many stupid people out there with the same problems!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA im moving out of this ice box.. im not staying here, this is ridiculous, there should be like... a winter freeze warning where noone should have to go to work in this crap!!!
Actually the schools were delayed 2 hours.... WOW 2 HOURS! THE TEMP DIDNT EVEN GO UP A DEGREE IN TWO HOURS!

I have a dream, that one day, I would be sitting on a beach, in a bakini, drinking long islands, listening to bob marley, soaking up the sun, as hot guys surf out in the distance... ahhh... so nice... one day that dream will come true LOL

Goodness Morquinn...that is chilly!! Its cold here too but not that cold. Its like 1 degree right now, with wind chill below zero. Has been for a couple days...but its not as cold as minnesota! Goodness. And our schools closed and are already closed for tomorrow, because they don’t want the kids staying outside waiting on buses in these temps. Funny how things are different in different states. You are just not having much luck are you...i hope your car gets fixed and cheap and quickly.

Morquinn I have to agree with you 100% on your dream speech. I absolutely love the beach slash anything tropical so while I am typing this (my hands and nose are frozen) I am just dreaming of being on a nice warm beach. I live in Malone, NY which is 5 minutes from the Canadian border and I think it was a high of -2 degrees today! Wow its a heat wave! And to make it worse the wind chill sucks hard core.
Finners-I wish they would close school that easily here. But here we have a guy who goes to florida every spring break and hates to have vacation time taken away so he never gives us snow days unless its absolutely horrible. well I think I shall crawl into my nice heated bed now and dream of Florida!Goodnight everyone!

Ok so just to rub it in a little morquinn. It is almost 70 here today. We got the doors open and the sun is just shining on the snow covered mountains. OOps my bad. HE HE I’m so evil.

Well I don’t really have much to say. Oh My stupid Humidifier stopped working this morning. I can’t figure it out. I think I’m going to throw it out the window and get another one.
Finners has yours ever just stopped working?

ahh man..i want warm weather!! It made it to 10F today!! whoo hooo! heat wave coming. lol. I know its warming the morquinn though. lol. We’ve gotten a couple inches of snow this afternoon too. It wasn’t fun driving home, since it took me a little longer....this snow was extremly slick for some reason. I actually like driving in snow most of the time...in town I purposly made myself slide..lol. So much fun.

Oh and Fivel...yes my humidifier has just up and broke before..dont’ know why, it just stopped pumping out mist. So I had to get another one. I used filtered water and everything but it still didn’t live that long. Frusterating.

Actually it has been snowing here, we got about... 3 inches on the ground LOL, and YES we do snowmobile on that much snow, of course it would be nicer if it were a couple feet like you guys have there in the mountains, but beggers cant be choosers.


Finners- I was givin an inhaler by my doctor for my bronchitis, I was alittle scared to use it at first, but I dont really think I need it too much cuz I seem to be recovering quickly it seems, I have a bad cough still but at least the breathing is a little better. And yes its supposed to get like 20F the day after tomorrow so that will be SO nice, I cant wait! Even today at 5F it felt wonderful compared to the negative temps we’ve been having!

Humidifiers do that for some reason my momma in law went thru a bunch of them while she was sick! She had to have one goig at all times and she was on and oxygen tank all the time so we used filtered water in it all the time and kept it cleaned but they just go out with no warning! I had to go buy several the 2 yrs she was sick.

Hey has anyone heard from B&K? She kinda left us hanging and we dont know what happened with her fiancee! I was just wondering I thot about her last night when someone on tv said something about canada.

Morquinn..glad to hear your getting better. The inhaler is pretty easy to use and it will break up the cough a bit.

Well it isn’t that warm today. I mean it is like 50 but it keeps trying to rain and crap. They say that our weather is only going to get worse. I’m ready for summer.

LM> i posted a comment on your video and gave you a good rating. You should do the same for me. Oh and i subscribed to your videos.

Finners> ya mine did the same thing. GRRRRR stupid coolmister. I feel like I’m back in the primitive days and having to mist BY HAND. lol

Morquinn> glad your feeling better. I have to use those inhalers evyday with my asthma. They don’t taste too great do they. Oh and 3 in’s WOOOT WOOOT. LOL thats just funny to me. But down intown we haven’t got that much this year at all.

Kimmie> I was wondering the same thing about B&K. I’ll try to PM her and see if it triggers her email.
