Anyone drive on the base or towns around there.. belleville, Ofallon, fairview and what not? Been seeing a lot since i bought my SS back in sept. I know theres a black SS that drives on the base, red one works at the pharmacy. Seen a red SS, fresh with black rims and CSS.net sticker, and i believe CF trunk parked at some office buildings on greenmount road. Just curious anyways who else around the area.

LOL Yeah thats so funny. Cuz I remember back then when yall were dating and stuff she used to talk about you, and yall went to prom and what not, she never told me you had a SS tho, but maybe you didn't have it then, and that might have been the time i didn't really know much about them anyway.

fiero bronze, original paint and all. It's pretty close to mint. Have had it since i was 15 and she just hangs out in the garage now. BTW if you ever need parts for your cars let m know, i have a lot layng around lol. I have like 3 shakers that i can't give away lol

I just happened to see the Red Cobalt with carbon fibre trunk today at the Best Buy just west of Scott AFB, and it had the css.net stickers on it.
I'm surprised I haven't seen an SS's at the track the two times I went. Well... there was one there last night and it was for sale, but it was a 2.4 auto, so that doesn't really count.
Oh yeah... I have a dropped Maroon Altima here at Scott AFB. What's up fellas.

Sup fellas. I'm in Granite City and up that way occaisionally. I'm probably twice your age(s) so you may not see me at regular "hangouts" but who knows. Years ago I was a cement mason apprentice and worked on the commissary at Scott AFB. I'm still spitting concrete dust from grinding on the walls of that place,lol.
Several months ago I was westbound 64 near Greenmount Rd. and I see someone coming up on me pretty fast-he pulls along side, I look over and it's a !!! black Cobalt SS-gave him the
. Don't know if it was a SC or TC or if he wanted to play; we both exited at 157 (I needed gas and thought he might want to compare notes or w/e) however he took off like his hair was on fire. Oh well.
POPS ftw.
Edit: (it was actually 159-Fairview Heights where we exited)

I've seen your car around a few times. You need to tell your guys to do my alignment.

if you're tight on cash flow and want a tune, u can borrow my trifecta tuning cable. it's cheaper to get tuned if you don't have to rent one of trifectas tuners. it's just sitting around my garage

Back on topic. The black Stage 1 car out at Scott AFB, if it has Wyoming plates (I believe that's what state it is) his name is James...really nice guy.
I'm trying to get the St. Louis group meetings going again since we haven't had one at all this year. I'm looking at getting together June 13th, still deciding on a location to get as many people involved as we can. Typically they have been in South County at Hooters but Maryland Heights Hooters has been mentioned for a possibility. Obviously with most of you being on the IL side SoCo would be nicer. Let me know what you all think.

Hey Ryan long time no see, I wondered if you had gotten rid of your car!
