Hey guys, its been a while since i have posted on here. I am still working on my 1991 Firebird. I have less than $4000 in the car. I call it a "Poor Touring" car.
I took it to a track day at Oregon raceway park with a couple buddies. I got some video of us running. The Orange Car in the video is a Lexus SC400 with a V8. the other car we all know is a Supra Turbo. we had a blast. My car ran great, drove it to the track and back home. By Far my favorite road course in the Northwest.

Lol, the Supra at 1:25.
ORP looks like a fun track, I want to get out there on a fast motorcycle. |

It will start if I put a battery in it, haha
Yeah, it is in big time project mode, I have a plan for it, it is lots of parts and money collecting going on. One of these years it will be back at it. The problem is, I want to do the camaro, but I have been doing a lot more with motorcycles the last few years. |

That looks like a blast. That Supra was fast but not sure if his brakes locked up or if he thought the left turn was a right!

Looks like a lot of fun, I also like your video in the rain at the Ridge. Little nerve racking in the rain? How fast do you end up topping out at when it's wet? |
