Yeah, I've heard of him. Ha.
If you want a kit that looks pretty, then sure. Cause a kit is only worthy of praise if it looks pretty - functionality be damned!

But no, Dan is exactly right - he manages a wheel and audio shop, picked up HPT and now says he's got a performance shop. If it were my money/car, he would not be my first pick.

I picked up GRID, should have listened to my instincts. It definitely lives up to the Codemasters history of racing suck.

You're smoking garlic flavored crack. That game kicks your ass and then calls you a bitch. Seriously... it asks you if you want it in the butt, you say no, and then it does so anyway like the awesomeness that it is.

Eh. Codemasters and I have never seen eye to eye on what constitutes a "good" racing game. I didn't like DiRT, TOCA, or Colin McRae either.

Hey guys....

I was just at Day Chevy tonight having some work on the car done, AND starting them on finding me a C5 Z06.... and while I was doing so.... I was finally able to check out a new SS...

a few things...
WOW that was a fun car. Brakes are pretty darn good, but need some heat in those I think... a good set of pads will really suck your eyeballs out of you during breaking.

Had to get used to the minimal lag, but it really feels predictable and not too abrupt.

Didn't get to test the launch control or the no lift...
Not crazy about the clutch feel though... maybe just something to get used to.

Here's the best part...

Day had 3 2008 turbo cars there.... Red, Sport red and Black... the bright red has the low spoiler, but the other two have the high mount and are otherwise identical.

There was a 'wind-storm' at the plant while they were sitting on the lot and had some paint damage. Apparently some have some minor scratches up there and they wrote off the whole lot...

Day bought 3 of the nicest ones there , as I couldn't find a mark on them. GM has them listed as a "voided corrosion warranty" case, so they still have bumper to bumper and 100K powertrain, but no corrosion and paint warranty anymore.

Sticker was $24K ish on then... they had them listed for 22K and I was told by one of the managers there that they "had a lot of play in there to work with" as well. So you can really get a deal on them if you want a new one.

All 3 had the LSD, sunroof and I think they all had the 6 disc changer, but I can't be 100% sure.

If you want one... that might be a cheap way to get one.

I was offered a 08 from North Star Chevy during the GM Employee Discount sale for 18-20k. The 09 being released should drop the 08's even more.

Hrm. Hrm. Temptation.....rising.

The only downside is I really need to wait out the situation with my grandfather. If I'm going to be shuttling him and my grandmother around, I'm going to need a different car with more than 4 doors and room in the back to fit a walker/wheelchair. Might be better off with an HHR SS if it comes to that.

Hey guys I just got my HPTuners and the wideband will be installed on Saturday. I was wondering if any of you tuning guru's in the area would feel like helping me out in learning.
