I am definitely game to come run with you guys.. even though  I can not run in any of the classes! I will be showing my support for the Contour... I'll eat a couple Grand Ams if i am given the chance for you guys! Ron, finally we get to run at a track huh??? Beat you on the street, the tracks a different story! (YEAH YEAH, old tires my ass) Personally I am shooting for some 14's... 14.8xx??? And like Joe said, NO arshad, he is horrible luck.. I swear everytime that kid rides with me when I race my car feels like ****... For example, LOSING TO CHRIS BY 1/2 a car.. OUCH
hey.. Aspiration is aspiration!
well well well, look who is joining the party.. you beat me, i can admit to that.. but that was with arshad in the car, yes crappy tires.. i think steel belts being exposed counts for bad tires, and no spray.. i know youll take me without spray, but with.. sorry man.. its like you running around the block against arshad ------------------

Ill be there, but hopefully these GA's wont be running in the 16's, or I might just have to grab a few GTPs to run against. 15.1@97mph w/Filter ------------------ Jay (Intersection Killer) 00 'BARTENDER! A Black&Tan' SVT Contour Home Sweet Home www.SVTperformance.com

rematch w/ the spray? ok.. how much? jk, but seriously, every time my car broke down i was with him.. first time by seven brothers, second time by jane stenson, and the last time right by the forest preserve.. dam he is bad luck...but if my car is done, or if i get another car.. lets all go together.. the ride there could put the end to all this talk that my car sucks.. ill serve you first, victor, lenny.. anyone... i really want to run that blown svt.. i never seen one yet... that could be fun..

i wont be able to be in that class either.. even without the happy juice.. i say since they brought on the challenge.. lets play fastest tours vs. fastest grand ams.. hell i dont mind gtps.. all i have to say is just bring it.. if i cant take them, im sure that blown svt should tear the gtp...

Hey David boys and Lee.. if you guys go, lets meet some where.. i never been there before.. ive only been to great lakes.. heres my email: XP1Frost@aol.com
John/Joe, I need to talk to you guys about that Dealership you go to. Thanks.. all this talk about racing, this great weather.. its making me want to go to Speed Service and fill up my baby bottle! cant wait to get in my car again.. and screw arshad.. he aint going in my car.. hes like a black cat, a big one! jk...
Next question is what is the fastest Grand Am in that club running? I am wondering because how are these classes going to work? I say put some names of the tours in one hat, and grand ams in another.. each will pick a name from the other hat.. and set up a tree from there.. so the final could go either way, tour vs tour, grand am vs grand am.. whatever... doesnt matter.. its luck of the draw.. and since there is no real prize for me, i mean the winner.. who cares right? lets do something fun...

Ron,
Thats fine, we can all follow eachother up there.. personally I would be shocked to see many GT's in the 14's. I have not personally been impressed with their ability to perform. What are they stock?? high 15's if I recall, and I small aftermarket following.. and I dont believe a SC yet either... However, if you have the money they can make it fast..
Ron, as for the gtp's.. dont forget easily low 14's with just a pulley upgrade with exhaust and intake, $300 low low 14's.. not too shabby... also.. what does the blown SVT have done other than the SC.. what kinda times is he projecting?

So ... do I get a car length spot if I bring my AARP card and promise only to play 8 Tracks of the Doors? :-) I haven't run on a real track since '70 but this sounds like too much fun to pass up!!! Let's see if we can get a phase II weekend driving around the cones -- or better yet hot laps at Road America  ------------------ 98 SVT K&N Drop-in SHO Shop 'Y' pipe Borla Superchip Valentine 1

Someone want to give me the address so I can get directions from MapQuest? Thanks. Also, my 95 SE ATX might be a bit slow, right? I take it most of the GA owners are GTs which might outrun me. I don't know what my car runs, but its mostly stock except for no resonator and a KKM filter and the TH fix. If I show up, will I get my a$s kicked? By even an SE? My car is by no means slow, but GA/GP are pretty quick. ------------------ Dan Parmelee TheContourGuy@aol.com95 SE ATX KKM 24V HIGH OUTPUT badging SVT E0 wheels/tires yellow calipers CEG stickers OF's TH fix HyperWhite high beams CoolBlue low beams drilled metal pedals faux metal grille removed hoodliner 01 Infiniti I30t 95 Ford Windstar LX http://hometown.aol.com/thecontourguy/contour.html
