Re: my new toy

Nice blazer
Don't like the wheels though. Gimme more sidewall meat for a bit more cushioning of the road.

Cant say I'm a huge fan of the wheels on the monte (just a little big) but you have some killer rides! Thanks for posting those

Re: my new toy

At first glance I thought the blue GN was a Monte too. I love big hoops, but the blue one sits too high for my tastes. The black GN sits just right to me. Regardless of my opinion you have a nice stable of rides. Too bad you lost one, but the Blazer is a sweet replacement.

tha black one does 10.99 with a 70

the blu one is a stroked 109 with champion ported intake champion heads 76mm turbo, alky dual nozzle,96# injhr bar , metco upper and lowers any time your in florida i invite you to come by and see just because i dont put something in my sig on turbobuick doesn't mean anything ,it also doesnt have all my other cars i have about 10 if you would like more details please ask i usually don't go on turbobuick and talk alot about how fast my car is because i have a awesome tuner and a ver well tuned car and i will say it again don't let the wheels fool you it usually rolls on a 325 drag radial

the pic was of some cars i built and took to daytona im sure you will have some input on those as well

i hope this was enough of a explanation

the black GN that tv and jd show above are nice but the rest look like crap with those rims (my opinion)
