Welcome Autocrossers and Road Racers.

This board came about because it seemed you guys needed a new home, and I had the opportunity to host a board free of charge to serve this purpose.

The board is hosted on the web account of the Middle Tennessee F-Body Association, our main page is http://www.mtfba.org and our own forums are at http://www.mtfba.org/forum.

A little background on me:

I am the Executive Director of the MTFBA (we don't have an elected president per se). In my day job I work for a government relations/lobbyist consulting firm in Nashville, TN. I have never autocrossed or road raced, but I have been dying too, just haven't had the chance yet.

Some of you will also remember me as the owner/operator of the short lived Nashville Speed & Performance web-based performance parts business. During that time I had the pleasure of being the exclusive retailer for Bob Bishop's (lateapex) C5 brake upgrade.

My thoughts for this message board are that you, the users, will help form it into what it will be. I envision a general discussion section, followed by some specific forums for Autocross and Road Racing respectively, then perhaps some technical discussions on suspension, chassis and braking. Basically I'd like to give you guys a more detailed discussion forum that breaks out the major topics in these two genres rather than lumping all of it into 1 forum.

I'd also like to get some sponsorships in here eventually, so if any vendors are reading, get in touch with me.

I'm going to have a good friend of mine, Lee Willmann, as the co-administrator here. Lee is the editor of MTFBA's quarterly newsletter and in his day job works with php and mySQL, so he is more of the technical expert whereas I am just the facilitator of things.

I also want the members to think of a name for this forum. I can inexpensively reserve a URL which can be directed straight to this board...I dunno...www.fbodyracing.net or something? So lets discuss that as well.

That's all for now, I'll check in from time to time, hopefully learn a lot from you guys and eventually meet some of you at a road racing or autoX event.

Welcome Neil,

What part of the country are you from?

Thanks
I live in Hampton Roads, VA. I guess that does not show up on screen with this board?

Hi you all.
Just found this cite through ls1tech.com after reading about probs at ls1.com (member at both, among others). I don't post much, but enjoy reading and learning about my fbod's capabilities (2002 T/A bone stock). Have yet to put her on a track, but maybe this year.

Anyway, hello hello hello.

I've been here pretty much from the start but havn't actually said an official hello to everyone so here it is.

I'm up in the great white northern Canada (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Actually I'm in souther Ontario so probably south of a few of you in the states even. I drive a '91 Camaro with the following mods: Belltech drop spindles, Koni Sports, 850/175 springs and 32/19 bars(I think...winter has been long), poly bushings, GC weight jacks and a Spohn adj. panhard bar. Along with that I've continued to make the interior and legalness of it lower by taking out the A/C(R12 and didn't work anyway) and allowing the cat to fall off and replace it with a 3" hooker catback.
