Actually this is the kinda stuff I wanna do, I just need new tires. Thanks JOSH! You need to get new tires on your wheels that I'm using, for cryin out loud! HAHAHAHA. I should have my wheels next week, hopefully. So I'll be coming back up there one of these days to swap back out with you. Is Sam still using mine?

Johny I was JUST coming on here to post about the GT Live Tour up at VIR Oct 6th-8th and you beat me to it. Also a date of interest will be the Good Guy's Car Show at Lowe's Motor Speedway October 27th-29th. Might be a good time to meet up with the Charlotte Rotary guys.

Eric, did you go to the GT Live website? They have this GT Sim thing you can do at the track, it's where they let you ride along in one of the GT cars at speed around the track in an actual track session! Dude, me and Keri are in we're getting our tickets as soon as we get back from Deal's Gap.

Mee too Bobby

Greg, I talked to a friend of mine who owns a Dodge dealership and the Challenger is a go. Not sure of any details but he said they are definatly going ahead with production. (Note) I don't think they trade them for amps & guitars.

How much to enter? I might try. I won't win with stock suspension, but I'll see how I do, lol.

You do realize this is not for the general public...this event is for actual race cars. Here are some of the rules:

No I didn't go to it cause I don't have the time or money to do much right now, haha. And I'm not sure Deal's Gap is in my cards right now either. I started the brake job today and 3 of the tires are showing cords, with the 4th not far off. If I can get the wheels and tires on, along with maybe the pillowballs and an alignment, along with rolling the fenders if I have to, I'll be going. I'm going to be really pissed if I can't make it this time.

the older ones were definitely nicer. the originals always are. look at the "new" mustang, challenger, and eventually camaro. i think dodge did the best job, though i have seen some modded mustangs that look real good. either way the originals win, hands down.

anybody have an idea how much the new challenger is going to be?

^ Bobby, I missed that when I was looking at their site...I guess I'll have to see how much I have saved up by then and get a helmet! I saw registration was $175 for your vehicle and then you have to buy participant credentials. Seems like it would be fun but if you aren't one of top 3 in your group kinda seems a little pricey for a lap.
