As for the base vette, yes... it got forced off a road from an oncoming car, and with traction control on the rear wheels just spun in the gravel/mud forcing the car to just slide on the road again and over a hill... half my driver error, half oncoming car

Hey guys, just wanted to introduce myself. My name's Matt, I've never really posted anything on the forums before, but I've met a couple of people that post here. For example, I met Eric up at IUP when I was driving through campus up there on a random weekend. And a dude named Dante that gave me his card for SpeedJunkyz....

Anyway, I have a TB '05 VIII GSR with some mods .....it was tuned by Nate, and made 353 whp 347 wtq @21 psi. I'll try to post more often, and definately try to make it to one of the meets at Lowes.

hey matt. welcome officially to the pgh thread.

dante isn't around anymore. he moved away then some of us kind of scared him off because he had, uhm... a rather abrasive personality at times.

are you from the IUP area, or are you located closer to the burgh?

Oh thanks!! could i take the car to you in the future to put on a bolt on turbo? of course you would be payed to and no its not tuned yet, moms been in hospital a week or two now so i havent been on here much and car hasnt been ran since today from when i picked it up. It desperately needs a tune though, but i want to wait till i get cams turbo manifold and fuel injectors and fuel pump b4 the tune but now with my mom, i might have to put that on hold and just get a tune.

thats a big negative. i rode crotch rockets for a number of years; lived in maryland for a summer and got a 135mph speeding ticket in a 65mph zone. never showed up on my PA licence, just payed the maryland magistrate and was on my way.

you got nothing to worry about except the fine
