				Thought I'd throw up a little intro post.  I'm Greg, from Wisconsin.  I picked up a '90 camaro a couple months ago, its currently in about as many pieces as it can be in my garage (a hollow shell with doors attached right now!), putting it together to be a weekend toy/track day car.  I've been road racing motorcycles for the past couple years, last year burned me out a little bit chasing points and only going to 4 different tracks all season.  This year I'm just doing a couple of those races for fun and hopefully some track days in the car too just for some variety. I want to have the car done before the end of june, so that should give me time to get to a couple events this year at least! Maybe I'll see some of you at events in the midwest. Here's the only picture I've taken of the car so far from a couple weeks ago. Pardon the crappy cell phone picture quality..

				Thanks Sidney, building a car to the class rules does make sense, that way I won't be spending money twice if I end up going that route!  Most of what I had planned for it would fit with the CMC rules anyways, two things I already have that wouldn't (assuming I'm reading the rulebook right) are the t56 and a tubular K-member, but since I already have them I'll put them on the car.  It wouldn't be too difficult to change those parts out at a later point.
