My procrastinating, lazy ass was up all night getting my taxes organized (corporate and personal

I was driving on the tollway last week and drove by a brand new corvette with two state police cars behind it and a flatbed in front of it. That dude got busted!!!

So what's up with you . . . you land the big job and get sucked up in the corporate world?
What do we need to do to get you excited about doing some mods? There's a thermo spacer for the intake and TB that should net 5-8hp/tq . . depending on outside temps could be a couple more . . . around $120, so several of us are thinking of getting it and having a mod meet . . .
BTW, Casper is planning on showing up and showing us how to clear our front lights . . . that should look good with Silver . . .

Got anymore info on the "thermo spacer"? Sounds interesting.
I'll try to keep up so I'll know when the mod meet gets planned.

any of you guys get out to the GM auto show in motion over the weekend? I should have taken pics with my new toy,
but I forgot it.
Got to drive all the new LS2 cars though, the new Vette, GTO, and SSR.
I loved the GTO's power, but it's interior felt really cheap. The Vette was amazing of course, still a dream car of mine. The SSR was awesome with the top down, the exhaust sounded great!
I also drove the Saab 9-2x, unfortunately it was an auto so it had crazy turbo lag. But that car handles beautifully! I now see why there's so many WRX fans.

This past winter when they were doing those crazy deals, I almost bought one to play with. If I did that, I would have kept the TL. But, I decided that it would be bad to have 2 cars that I would want to mod.
