Probably going up north to get some paint work finished. The Intercooler thing was supposed to be fabbed by Vortech so we could show it and they could sell it but those guys were too busy with other projects.

The first SVT/SHO Society YearEnd Blast. Matt Galusha came out from NJ, ton of people from OH, IL & IN, SE Michigan Was there in a big way. We had nearly fifty cars and when we went on a small cruise that should have lasted around 15-20 minutes we finished it in under 10. Hands down the most out of control cruise I have ever been on.
Also, the one SVT/SHO meet where stazi beat everyone to the restaurant and as we were pulling up he decided to race some kid riding a moped... on foot. He won BTW.

There is alot to try and remeber some crazy stuff has gone on over the years. how about.. the moose fix, the vortec craze, and then there was a time when people where begging for E1's, if you changed your wheels there was a line for those E1's  . I can remeber going to see Bill Jenkins when the bastad was still in Boston . I also remeber our first new england meet in the fall of 2000. It was at Grappone ford in n.h.. I met Mike(svt) & kim(frenchbluec2) for the first time, Baco still had his gl, some kid came up from ny with his silverfrost svt with shm headers, rick(beach bum) had his black svt. It was raining outside but we didn't give a crap. ahh memories.

All your base are belong to us!
I wasn't on the mailing list. When I found this place in about '98 or so, it was that primitive BB where all the threads are on one page.
"How do I adjust my fogs?" was still a valid question.
"Knauberizing" was new.
BAT offered coil spring conversion kits.
Side marker lights and the "single wiper mod" were popular.
SHO Shop answered your phone calls.
"Ground Effects" were an aerodynamic mod.
Function before fashion.
