New guy saying hi - F-Body Road Racing and Autocross Forums

hey guys/gals

im new here, been lurking for a while and finally joined, wanted to introduce myself

My names Phil, and i have usually hang around on TGO, so i know a handful of you guys form there. Love my 3rd gens.

So, i have an 86 trans am, its pretty much a protouring car at this point, probably going to stay that way and eventually begin my racecar build on my recently acquired 92 firebird.

the 92 will be the racecar in the future, im just starting my plans for it and still have a lot of things to figure out with the direction i want to take it. Most of these plans require piles money, and thats a little tight right now since im looking to buy a house soon. So far i've only dealt with the issue of the horrible steel wheels that came with it, picked up a set of black crosslaces which will go on this spring once refinish them a bit.

so thats the basics, hopefully i can learn a lot from you guys

Another point is that all the roadcourse dates bring out the new guys with their rice who like to curse at the tech workers! The parking lot side is a traditional autocross lot which I prefer and they put on a good event.
