Driving the car to the car show tomorrow!!!

Eric4Nitrous · 05-10-2002, 10:04 PM

I've been busting my a** for two weeks now trying to get my motor back together..had a little compression problem..dropping compression in two cylinders. But anyway got that fixed. So tomorrow is our local car show here tomorrow. I don't feel like trailering it down there because it's in my garage now. So i'm gonna drive it down there. It's only like two minutes below my house. So, i have no exhaust whatsover, just plain open headers. Took the exhaust off, for no obvious reason.

So now i have a 16:1 open header'd motor...BEAUTIFUL music. The camaro club will be there tomorrow..So that should be fun

Well later everyone.

Hey Eric....
Sorry I crashed out last night and never got to your thread. I guess the 2 nights of 5 hours sleep total finally got the best of me..(not to mention the 3 margaritas at Tequilla Willeys last night! )
What time is your show over? Hope you take some pics while you are there of you and your car. That is gonna sound frigin' awesome....i wish i was there to hear it and see everyones faces...hehhehe!
I hope they dont throw your butt in jail

...but like I said, if they do, give me a holler, and i"ll bail ya out! There's 2 shows today I should have gone too. But I'm trying to devote this weekend to my house and yard. Still gotta unpack crap.
Good luck and let us know how it went when you get back home....dont forget the PICTURES.......

Hey guys, Well i went to the show yesterday and had a BLAST. I'm sunburned as hell but oh well. I came in First in the Race Car Class, and won overall BEST OF SHOW!!! I really wasn't expecting that to happen. I got a 5' trophy. But the car got alot of attention and I got some very nice comments about it from other people. So overall it was a great show!!
