The Trans Am was sold in Oct to a forum member (enjoy) and I had the S4 a daily driver since last spring. I had enough of the little electrical issues and traded the Audi in for a GTO last night. Got a '04 six speed with 27k on the clock. It's no f-body but close enough.

Ah, we knew you'd be back. They always come back...
Welcome back Scott! Glad to hear that you've picked up a new toy. |

Glad to have you back.
You'd you sell the old car to? How long before the GTO is on track (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

Everything in due time and moderation... Probably late summer... I'll get a friend to drag me out there to 'help out in the pits'....

My dad switched out his brakes to a Baer kit shortly after getting his '04. Much better than the OE stuff, but I don't know how they compare to the '05/'06 brakes.

Glad you're back to an LS1? How's Richmond treating you? Had enough of the snow yet? There's been some talk of a road course at VMP, but I have no info yet, the autox scene is pretty good there though. One of the guys down here in our club has an 04 with a full on Pedders suspension set up. The car is pretty fast for it's girth.

Just look at all the new Porches and Ferrerries! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

(IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/drink.gif) What's that like? My wife is always bugging me about getting a motorhome for the track and was bummed when our tax return wouldn't buy her a nice set of track radios. |
