Well like the title says I'm new on the board but that's not to say that I haven't been lurking for a while. I just aquired a '94 Trans Am that will be used to compete in the Grassroots Motorsports Magazine $2010 Challenge. This will be the second car I've competed with in this venue. The first car was a fox Mustang that finished a best of fifth in 2006. I've been autocrossing for more than a decade but this is the first F-Body I've owned. I promise to search this board thoroughly before I post up any tech questions. Look for me to post a lot in the classified sections looking for cheap parts to keep me under my budget limit. Thanks in advance for all the help.

I met up with forum member NJSpeeder this morning and picked up some used SS rims and a race seat on the cheap. He laid some F Body wisdom on me and proved to be a gentleman through and through. I also met up with a fellow who runs a CMC Mustang and picked up some decent 275 series Hankook R-Comps. Since the car is finally freed from it's snowy parking spot I figured I'd post up some pics.
Not too bad looking for less than a grand. (IMG:http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo193/hrdlydangerous/Grassroots%20Challenge%20Trans%20Am/junkcars056.jpg) Unfortunately it chooses its own gears. Yes that's the intake elbow on the console. "R" Racing floor mats add like 50 hp's 'yo.
